A simple study of Islamic history tells you that the religion is about conquering and subverting all who oppose Islam. These cadets may be simply stooges to get the door opened, or they are active subversives, either way, this is ridiculous!
It is absolutely amazing that so many people on this thread cannot get it through their heads that no matter how much they or anyone else hates Islam or Muslims THERE IS NO LAW IN THE UNITED STATES THAT ALLOWS WEST POINT, THE ENTIRE DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE, OR ANY PUBLIC AGENCY TO DISCRIMINATE AGAINST MUSLIMS. In post #26 of this almost 400 post thread I asked for someone to provide legal justification West Point could use to exclude qualified US citizen Muslims from attending the Military Academy. Nobody has. Do you know why? Can you guess? Here's a hint...IT DOESN'T EXIST! Don't blame West Point, the US Army or Donald Rumsfeld. They don't create laws. They follow laws. And that is exactly what they are doing in this case.
