It would be illegal for West Point to systematically turn down Muslim cadets just because of their religion.

No it would not. Muslims will put the moon god and the koranic commands above their allegiance to the US constitution and their officers. This is very dangerous precedent. It is equal to allowing Soviet Communist sons and daughters into west point during the height of the Cold War.

Do you honestly imagine that US Muslim officers would defend Israel against muslim attack if that came to be? or would attack and kill Muslims on the battlefield? If you do, then you do not know anything about them.


This is insane. This policy must change.

Please cite a law that allows West Point to turn down Muslim cadets solely because they are Muslim. I don't think you can. My original statement is correct.

Do you honestly imagine that US Muslim officers would defend Israel against muslim attack if that came to be? or would attack and kill Muslims on the battlefield?

I'd be shocked if a Muslim-American in the Army DIDN'T kill a Muslim member of the Iraqi Army during the First Gulf War or Operation Iraqi Freedom. And the U.S. Army doesn't defend Israel - it defends the United States of America and its interests. Were an officer to refuse to defend the US, he would be in violation of his oath and subject to whatever punishment the army's rules and regulations allow.
