Dept. of Defense Makes Bad Muslim Legal Decision - May Vindicate Major Hasan
A shocking decision made by the secretary of the Army last month in the case of an U.S. Army soldier with the 101st Airborne at Fort Campbell who refused to deploy to Afghanistan claiming that Islamic law prevented him from killing other Muslims vindicates Fort Hood killer Major Nidal Hasan. He made identical claims and threatened that adverse events would occur if military officials didnt accede to Shariah law principles.In Major Hasans case, he had warned his Army colleagues and supervisor at Walter Reed of adverse events if Muslims were not granted conscientious objector status. The warning occurred during a June 2007 Power Point presentation that was part of his psychiatric residency program. Major Hasan cited previous cases of Muslims murdering their fellow soldiers, spying against the U.S., deserting their units, and refusing to deploy as examples of the kinds of adverse events that would follow if the Army didnt bow to the precepts of Islamic law. By granting PFC Abdos conscientious objector claim, the Army may have created trouble for themselves in the court martial of Major Hasan for the murder of his thirteen fellow soldiers at Fort Hood. Hasans attorney can now claim that by refusing to acknowledge Major Hasans claims under Islamic law as a conscientious objector and granting him an honorable discharge, the Army created irreconcilable conflict that prompted the Fort Hood massacre. And they can use the secretary of the Armys decision in the Abdo case as proof. Despite years of protestation by the U.S. government to the contrary, this decision vindicates all of these who have claimed that America is engaged in a war against Islam. The position that the Army now takes would also appear to acknowledge the classic Islamic doctrine of jihad that states that any incursion by non-Muslims into the lands of Dar al-Islam makes it an incumbent duty upon all Muslims everywhere to resist the occupiers the position taken by al-Qaeda and every Islamic terrorist group on the planet. This works both ways, however. If the Pentagon accepts that Muslim soldiers cannot fight against Muslims, or belong to a military fighting Muslims, because of Sharia law, then all Muslims currently in the military must be discharged, and may no longer serve.
