    General Casey has proven time and again he is not up to being Chaiman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

    Hello again,

    I'm not into Jihadi's being on base. I'm not into Jihadi's at all. But, this is the second time in recent days, where the suspect Muslim group was an "unindicted co-conspirators".

    Those words are very troubling to me. You guys, of course, think if the government designated them that, then they must BE that. Me, being the guy who DOESN'T trust the government, I'm not so sure... I also wonder why the government DIDN'T indict them? You don't think they gave 'em a pass just because they were being nice that day, do you? I certainly don't.

    Plus, I don't think the simple fact of having a Muslim lecture to the troops is, in and of itself, a bad thing. That would be, of course, unless he was preaching Jihad, which you seem to think they were, and I somehow doubt.

    Would you be happy with ANY Muslim group lecturing the troops before they deployed? I don't think you would.

    Depends on the group I guess.ISNA is an arm of the Muslim Brotherhood, and has previously admitted to having ties to Hamas .To that group I'd say hell no .

    Edit
    Coincidently I mentioned a group on response #69 that I would welcome.

    No, I figure there's a good reason, especially considering their calls to Jihad in "the war against the apostates."

    Every time you say that I have to wonder why you're so gung ho on Obamacare, but that's another discussion. I distrust the government, too, but I especially distrust Islamic groups dedicated to "a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and 'sabotaging' its miserable house."

    As of yet, they're not so dumb as to come right out and preach such things to our troops. You really need to get a better understanding of the myriad ways they go about this jihad thing.

    A more thorough vetting of just who it is they're allowing to lecture our troops is the least they can do.
