Another Threat Stopped

[Saved7]

Praise God this guy was stopped before he did anything. And did I mention, it's yet another muslim in the US army. Turns out he is also unwilling to go to war because we are fighting in Islamic countries....so why even sign up for the army if you know it's going to put you in a position that you may have to choose sides?

Wonder what he thought the military does in Iraq and Afghanistan... maybe knitting or sewing?

It's not that unusual from what I gather. Here in the UK we see people signing up for the pay, the training, the perks, whatever it is they are after, but the moment they are called up for active duty they start complaining and coming up with reasons why they shouldn't be sent out.

Unfortunately whatever we might think of any individual wars, you can't take the King's shilling without doing the King's bidding.

Maybe he figured that by signing up, he could work from the "inside".
It sounds pretty sinister, but you never know.

Right, as it should be.

I have no doubt that when a muslim signs up they intend to protect this land up to the point of protecting it from Islam itself....and that their ultimate goal is to work from the inside.

I actually didn't give it that much thought until about a year and a half ago when I had a dream that God told me to tell the President that the muslims that join the services, are not to be at a certain camp near the white house. I can't remember the name of it, and I don't know if there is one near there in DC, but I am sure there must be, it is the seat of our govt after all.

Yup. If you do it's AWOL and that's more than just a slap on the wrist.

Exactly. By the way just what is that in your signature. It looks like Perl script.

Isn't it better to go AWOL and face whatever the consequence, rather than commit a sin?

Only if you want to believe it's not a sin to take payment for a job and then refuse to do the job. If you don't want to go and fight, don't join the armed forces. It's not that hard to understand.

But this isn't about sin, this is about a muslim not wanting to fight because we are fighting against muslims. If he didn't want to fight FOR THE USA no matter who we are fighting, then he shouldn't have joined.

As a Christian, I believe we ought not join the armed forces.

But still, If you were in the armed forces, and then told to kill innocent people, would you have to do it because you had been paid?

This is close to home considering I worked at Drum and still attend school on Drum.

The Armed forces don't get orders to kill innocent people. That's something of the movies and fiction novels.

Killing is not a sin and God has done it and has ordered man to do it and even calls those who he uses to kill evil doers... His Minister's of God.

Murder is sin... murder is the killing of the innocent.

Killing is a tool that God will use to see His will accomplished and murder is a tool that satan uses to accomplish his will.
