Why Are American Muslims Not Enlisting in Our Military?

Posted by Matt in February 9th, 2007

In a refreshing Muslim voice not often heard, FSM Contributing Editor M. Zuhdi Jasser challenges the stereotypical Muslim response to the fact that there are few Muslim soldiers in the U.S. military. Where are the moderate Muslim voices you ask? Read one right here.

A story out of Reuters this week, carried by the mainstream media (MSM), and then soon thereafter distributed widely by American Islamist organizations makes the pronouncement that a ”Fear of bias keeps U.S. Muslims out of the military,” (February 6, 2007 by Bernd Debusmann). This dismissal of American Muslim responsibility for military service is preposterous. Reuters found immediate approval from Ibrahim Hooper of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). He is always too willing to confirm all claims of anti-Muslim bias substantiated or not from a naïve reporter.

Why then have American Muslims not rushed to enlist in the frontlines of our national defense? If not “fear of bias”, then what is it?

CAIR, and its victim echo chambers including the ADC (Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee), MPAC (Muslim Public Affairs Council), and MAS (Muslim American Society), to name a few, have made a franchise industry, since 9-11, out of the amplification and exploitation of Muslim minority fears, real or not.

BATTLE FOR KASHMIR
The clips used in this video are taken from various media sources and compiled by myself. There are people out there who support the ONE MILLION TERRORISTS in Kashmir and could therefore flag this video as inappropriate. It is my humble request to Youtube to discard any concerns raised against this video by such fanatics.

Rape Laws in Islamic Pakistan
The purpose of this article is to show how the barbaric nature of Islam manifests itself in the cruel treatment of women. 1. Lets start with the "great" Mohammed himself, the founder of this "fabulous" faith. Mohammed was married to Khadija Bibi, his employer and 15 years his senior. At that time Mohammed was 25 years old. He was Khadija Bibi's third husband. Khadija Bibi was a widow when she married Mohammed. For the first time in his life, Mohammed enjoyed a luxurious life. This shows the parasitic nature of Mohammed who married his employer so that he can live a rich life without putting in a single day's work. 2. Khadija Bibi died when Mohammed was 49 years old. Between the ages of 49 and 63 the "great prophet" married at least 11 times. This shows how he treated the institution of...

Ivan the Terrible & Russians vs. Muslim Tatars
EUROPEAN HERITAGE LIBRARY WWW.EUROHERITAGE.NET In the 13th century, the Russian Slavic states were obliterated by the Shamanist/Animist Mongol armies and, especially, their Muslim Turkic mercenaries. In the 16th century, Ivan the Terrible crowned himself emperor of the 3rd Rome (as the 2nd had been destroyed by the Jihad of the Ottoman Turks), united most of the Slavs under the new Russia (Muscowy), and led a military invasion against the Muslim occupying armies at Kazan, Astrakhan, etc. His efforts would ultimately lead to the creation of Russia, quickly to become the largest empire on earth (still today). From the Soviet propaganda classic, "Ivan the Terrible". EUROPEAN HERITAGE LIBRARY WWW.EUROHERITAGE.NET
