skyrider 0 #1 April 27, 2010 Checked this on Snopes.com and its TRUE! See http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/dhs.asp Well, boys and girls, today we are letting the fox guard the hen house. The wolves will be herding the sheep! Obama Appoints two devout Muslims to home land security posts. Doesn't this make you feel safer already? Obama and Janet Napolitano Appoint Arif Alikhan, a devout Muslim As Assistant Secretary for Policy Development. Homeland security Secretary Janet Napolitano also swore-in Kareem Shora, a devout Muslim, who was born in Damascus, Syria as ADC National Executive Director as a member of the Homeland Security Advisory Council (HSAC). NOTE: Has anyone ever heard a new government official being identified as a devout Catholic, a devout Jew or a devout Protestant...? Just wondering. > > Devout Muslims being appointed to critical Homeland Security positions? Doesn't this make you feel safer already?? That should make America much safer, huh!! Was it not "devout Muslim men" that flew planes into U.S. buildings 8 years ago? Was it not a devout Muslim who killed 13 at Fort Hood? Well, American voters, you can't say we didn't try to warn you......... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 4 #2 April 27, 2010 QuoteNOTE: Has anyone ever heard a new government official being identified as a devout Catholic, a devout Jew or a devout Protestant...? Just wondering. Yes. It was one of the points of contention in the election with President Kennedy. As I recall, he didn't turn the US into a "Catholic" country nor did the Pope take over. Islam is just a religion.

kelpdiver 2 #7 April 28, 2010 What exactly do you fear that these bureaucrats will do in their offices to compromise American safety? You don't see any advantage in having Muslims, who may offer a better or at least different understanding of the enemies of our nation? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shotgun 1 #10 April 28, 2010 QuoteNOTE: Has anyone ever heard a new government official being identified as a devout Catholic, a devout Jew or a devout Protestant...? Just wondering. From the list of Homeland Security Advisory Council Members who were sworn in with Kareem Shora is the "devout Baptist" Sonny Perdue. http://savannahnow.com/stories/012003/LOCXGRPerdueAGENDA.shtml That's just one example, but I'm sure there are plenty of new government officials who are devout . I don't see what the problem with that is, unless perhaps it's some extremist group, which doesn't seem to be the case here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy9o8 2 #13 April 28, 2010 QuoteQuoteIslam is just a religion. That is a misnomer. Islam is a doctrine which contains its religion, means to govern and mandate of being subservient. Well. now, if you're going to use that broad a definition, fine; but acknowledge that lots of religions do that, not just Islam. Christianity, for example: Quote Ephesians 5:24 (NIV) - 24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. That's just one example from one religion. So if Islam is not just a religion, but is a governing "doctrine", so is just about every religion. Talked to any Catholic priests lately? Orthodox rabbis? Spaghetti Monster prophets?

champu 1 #15 April 28, 2010 You know how everyone complains that "normal" muslims don't stand up and do something about the radical islamic people who commit atrocities? Joining DHS could probably be construed as standing up and doing something about the radical islamic people who commit atrocities. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riddler 0 #16 April 28, 2010 It's even worse than that! There are 1.5 billion Muslims in the world. That's like one terrorist for every three of the rest of us peace-loving Zionists, Hindus, Agnostics, et al. Or maybe not every Muslim is a terrorist? Just sayin' ...

DrewEckhardt 0 #25 April 30, 2010 QuoteChecked this on Snopes.com and its TRUE! See http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/dhs.asp While we're at it, we should ban every one following an Abrahamic religion from public office. Christians are responsible for atrocities like the Crusades, Inquisition, and child rapes this century (even in America). Jews bulldoze Arab settlements and travel abroad to assassinate people. OTOH, why stop there? Hindu terrorists are a problem in India. Maybe only atheists should hold office. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
