[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 629770, member: 17969"] Why not stick to the facts of the case so far instead of the HYPERBOLE presented by FOX news? This officer was about to be deployed, he has tried for months to get out of the service and was resisting being deployed to the middle east. After months and months of trying, he just snapped. There are many US soldiers who are facing this exact same situation all over this country. Fortunately, they dont snap and kill there comrades. Instead, they are killing themselves. Most of those are christians, so does that mean theres a religious connection to suicide and christianity?? This was a simple case of a muslim soldier not wanting to go overseas into a middle eastern country and be a part of a war he didnt believe in. He was strong enough in his faith to not want to be a part of an occupying force dominating a muslim country and he just snapped. If religion is all you want to focus on, then maybe you should petition the goverment to only hire christians. Maybe you could start a movement "dont prey, dont tell"..?? This was tragic, yet the handwriting was on the wall for months and the chain of command failed those soldiers and civilians who lost there lives. The army has to blame itself for this failure. Indeed, the shooter shoulders all the blame and responsiblity for the end result, but the army shoulders the blame for not being able address this soldiers concerns before the act. There are hundreds of muslims in the service, they are not "moles" but in fact recruited by the military for service in the middle east. Translators and having people on the battlefield who can connect with the muslims in battle is an important part of a war strategy. Lets get over the FOX news hype of an AL Qaeda connection. :peaceful: [/QUOTE]
