  If I was over there in battle gear and happened to even LOOK like a Muslim (and in fact I *have* been mistaken for Muslim) I'd beg my commanders to send me to the rear. That may happen even without my request. I couldn't have my comrades not fully trusting me in the context of life and death situations, and what happened last night puts in doubt the loyalty of all soldiers who are (or simply appear to be) of Muslim descent. What that soldier did cast an unfortunate shadow over perhaps many servicemen and women who are innocent of any wrongdoing and loyal to their country.

  this was my thougth as well

  it will be interesting to see what happens to muslium soldiers who are serving in the US miltary

  I'm a bit naieve, but the question which begs asking is why on earth a fanatical Muslim would serve in the US military

  point well taken, i was surprised myself till i saw a report a couple years back about the number of muslium guys who do serve in the army living here in DC they do reports on the miltiary all the time and they did a report after 9-11 on ARE THE MUSLIUM SOLDIERS TRUSTWORTHY

  i find it amazing that this guy could have done this to his comrades. i dont know much about the details of what happened, but if he was in a camp, why did he have grenades, unless he had proper access to them? the british army doesnt issue them untill moving into battle.

  The only thing I've read, is he was a Seargent, and had a beef with a higher up, I heaven't read he was a muslim.

  CNN reported he was a muslim. They also reported that there were 18 muslim clerics in the military and of those 18, 12 were trained in the same branch (sect?) that many fanatical muslims come from. I'm sorry but I do not recall the name of the sectarian muslim belief (did it start with an "R"?).

  At any rate, IF this report is accurate it might behoove the military to check out the clerics and see what exactly they are teaching the Muslim-American soldiers.

  I agree, if he did this, he should be hanged. Let's have a trial first though.

  .I'm sorry but I find that comment ignorant and very offensive.
