Certainly the US military would not refuse to let someone go because they wanted “diversity”.
Do you know what the requirements are for someone who hid higher education, got a masters, became an MD, become a resident a Walter Reid?
If we do not know the answer to this it is a big gap. The US military refused to let him go ... and I will not accept a “diversity” excuse.
“Certainly the US military would not refuse to let someone go because they wanted “diversity”.”
That’s not what I meant. Sorry I wasn’t clear. I’m asking, was no action taken because of diversity’s practice of tolerance, where people who witness problems within a certain group but are paralyzed to do the right thing because of fear of backlash. The current climate in the DoD is pushing diversity very hard.
If another soldier from an “unprotected” group had said the same things Hasan did, there would have been an investigation. I believe because this guy is a muslim officer, people were afraid to take appropriate action after his comments and actions were exposed. As a result people treaded lightly around him and he was shuffled from once command to another to “get rid of the problem in my backyard.”
I’ve witnessed several situations, one just a few weeks ago, where leaderrs are terrified of politically correct taboo topics and react hysterically—they are afraid of their careers going down in flames for being branded a bigot. In my opinion this fear is fanned by the diversity information campaign currently pushed.
Common sense is snuffed and the “problem people” just get moved around instead of facing the problem head on to resolve it.
We have become so afraid of groups like CAIR suing we allow nutjobs to act suspiciously on airplane flights, with the people who complained being sued.
