Default Re: pilot fired because he is muslim

I am very disappointed at some the closed minded views that have been posted on this particular subject. I am sure that the same people that think all Muslims are bad do not realize that there are many Muslims protecting their freedoms by serving in our United States Armed Forces. These same Muslims have daily access to missiles, bombers and other weapons of mass destruction. These same Muslims meet at mosques on United States military bases around the world and worship the exact same Allah (Arabic for God) that Christians do. These same Muslims are fighting along side other soldiers of all religions and beliefs in our military.

The United States is a country built on diversity and acceptance and if anyone feels that discrimination is acceptable under certain, let alone any, circumstances needs to seriously take at look at themselves and the freedoms that these diverse people have provided them.
