Given that the FBI excludes all Jewish Americans from Arabic translations since the 911 Atrocities,
hopefully, these terrorists planning murder within the American homeland
will honestly and fully share their "records"
with their own English "translations" of their Arabic and coded Arabic.

FBI: Jews need not apply for Arabic linguist jobs - Thread 2

[Peach]

I do NOT want to believe this story.

[eclectic]

Methinks that there is more to unwillingness of the Arabic FBI translators to accept Arabic-speaking Jews as their colleagues than the old-fashioned Jew-hatred...

[Diogenesis]

Important BUMP for massive US Security problem.

Accountability at the FBI?
Cheering Arabs at the 911 Atrocities -- no problema
Stolen FBI files used by the DNC -- no problema
Hate crimes against Christians and Jews -- no problema
Arab terrorists controlling FBI translation services -- no problema

[Freedom2specul8]

Shocking and unbelievable bump

[umgud]

Given that the FBI excludes all Jewish Americans from Arabic translations......

Selective political correctness may be the death of us.

[dagnabbit]

Incredible!

Arabic is a tough language to learn, but that's no reson to have to rely on the likes of these traitors.

[RightOnline]

Un-bloody-believable.

[PJ-Comix]

Remember those 3 Muslim students who were detained on Alligator Alley because a woman overheard them joking around about causing another 9-11? They claimed they said no such thing and that idiot Larry King believed them when they appeared on his show. I guarantee you that woman who turned them in was NOT LYING. I am absolutely convinced they were joking around about 9-11. A lot of those types have real chips on their shoulders.

[MEG33]

Discussing this on Fox,showed a 9/11 shot."Translator traitors" is the the caption.

[Aquinasfan]

After she brought the alleged breaches to the attention of her supervisors, Edmonds was fired by the FBI.

Uh-oh.

[spodefly]

Another story for the major media to spike, and for "Homeland Security" to ignore.

[Cronos]

How about getting Christian Arabs as translators -- there are plenty of them. I nominate Yasmeen Bleeth and Salma Hayek. If they do get in, then I guarantee there'll be a large chunk of red-blooded American lads who'll know Arabic in no time at all!

[yarddog]

This story is just about exactly what most of us would have guessed to be the case.

[RippleFire]

Fifth column bump

[GirlShortstop]

Edmonds says agents who don't speak Arabic have no way of knowing whether the information they receive from translators is tainted.

No kidding?!  </sarcasm>
The muhammaden cheerleaders pulling a fast one as alleged here certainly would not be surprising.  Did this article state what language Edmonds translated for the FBI?  That omission seems odd to me.  The following statement would make her firing all the more nonsensical:

The FBI blamed the security lapses on a chronic shortage of Arabic translators, which has forced it to hire mostly immigrants from the Middle East, which makes background checks more difficult.

[ml/nj]

Given that the FBI excludes all Jewish Americans from Arabic translations...

I think they exclude all Jews.

The ones from Israel are more likely to be fluent in Arabic and English, but we wouldn't want to employ them, would we?

ML/NJ

[ctonious]

She cited examples of mistranslations and security breaches within the FBI's language division, where translators with Top Secret clearance interpret sensitive terror-related information for agents.

As long as their extended background clearances indicated no drug use, wild frat/sorority parties, or late Macy's payments - I don't see the problem here.(/sarcasm)

I held a very high clearance several years ago - and the absolute morons in charge of giving out clearances were more interested in the above than anything truly threatening to the US. These idiots better get a clue about newer generations - or we'll all be living underground waiting for radiation half-lives to expire.

[The Scorpion King]

"Former FBI translator Sibel D. Edmonds says translators of Middle Eastern origin working for the FBI's Washington field office maintain an "us"-versus-"them" attitude that's so strong it may be compromising al-Qaida investigations."

This comes as no surprise to me. Muslims try to portray themselves as peaceful. The reality is that if they aren't comitting acts of terror they're cheering on those that do!

[FierceDraka]

Governmental incompetence for no other reason than to appear politically correct.

And I thought we elected conservatives the last time around.

Just goes to prove that THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT YOUR FRIEND. Candidates may spout conservative principles during campaign season, but the only principle they practice once in office is the never-ending expansion of the State.

Am I angry? You bet your a$$ - and I'm only getting angrier.

[MrConfettiMan]

Disgusting and frightening.

Also, she says some Arab-American translators, including a supervisor, threatened to sue the FBI for discrimination after complaints were filed against them.

The age of political correctness is going to be the death of us all. /a little melodramatic
