Muslim FBI Agent 'Does Not Record Another Muslim'!

If you are a Muslim, and are willing to act according to the dictates of justice even if a Muslim is the offender and a non-Muslim is the victim, make sure your friends, neighbors, acquaintances and colleagues all know it -

I'm guessing that for this theoretical Muslim that would amount to announcing his death wish.

So how does Pakistan justify letting us in there?

Dollars. Beaucoup Dollars! It all helps to further Islam in the long term.

[Terriergal]

I guess so! Apparently for money then you can justify the breaking of some major tenets of Islam? What a great religion!

The agent in question is quoted in two sworn statements, one by Wright and the other by retired agent Barry Carmody, as refusing to record the conversation because "a Muslim does not record another Muslim."

So Islamic nations don't believe in wiretaps? Tell that to the Kurds!

This line of reasoning sould be a lot of fun. Can ISPs in Saudi keep traffic logs? Will face recognition software ever be utilized in Iran? How do Arabic passports work? The mind boggles at the possible uses by defense counsel in a trial.

And we all know how much it would matter - some imam or judge would declare the defendant as an infidel, and then all manner of things can be justified for and by the government.

So Islamic nations don't believe in wiretaps?

Only if it is used to help an infidel I would think. They can backstab and oppress each other all they want.

The muslim traitor will probably be promoted... affirmative-action, you know..... American-Muslims betray their country with their silence and inaction

[AmishDude]

As a person with many Amish relatives and a father who left the Amish before he married

You deserve my screenname more than I do.

Think plainly!

[texas booster]

Careful when you say backstab regarding Allah's best. People might get the wrong idea. ;')

[StriperSniper]

we don't have any reason to infiltrate the Amish. :-\

Yes we do, Biological Weapons

[AmishDude]

The only problem is, we don't have any reason to infiltrate the Amish. :-\

Oh yeah???

2 Amish men suspected of thefts
Amish teen charged with drunken buggy driving
Alcohol and buggies form 'wild years' for Amish teens
Amish men face jail for plotting to sell cocaine (Yes, this is a real story, as are the others.)

Where are the "moderate Amish", I ask you? Where?

[Terriergal]

My word, I hadn't heard of any of those...

Well you must admit, their religion doesn't condone that behavior. Whereas Islam preaches jihad and refusal to cooperate with infidels.

[SauronOfMordor]

If not, then Muslims belong in law enforcement like the Amish belong in the US Marines.

Despite being committed pacifists, there are a number of Amish who have served in the military as unarmed medics, and have been decorated for valor for saving lives while under fire

A Muslim MIGHT be of use in tracking down non-Muslim criminals, but I agree that having considerations that loyalty to a criminal fellow muslim might supercede his Oath to uphold the law, renders that Muslim unfit to carry a badge

[fporretto]

You could well be right. Rod Dreher reported an interesting case of that in an article at National Review Online, about seven months ago.

The thing is, we're committed as a people to giving others the benefit of the doubt, so long as doubt remains. That's what I'm trying to do. 1.2 billion is a hell of a lot of enemies to cultivate, even for the United States.

I know what you mean. It's sad how many people take advantage of the "benefit of a doubt" phenomenon the US has.

Unemployed line up for benefits in Seattle after Boeing lays off.
Perhaps one of these people would like to trade places with
the FBI agent who apparently can't or won't do his job.

[AmishDude]

I'm sorry, I don't use the smilies very often. I have a dry and understated sense of humor (when successful). Amish are pacifists and actually live it. They don't engage in any sort of conflict even at the most interpersonal level. In fact, the Amish church would argue that these children are technically not Amish because they choose to join the church at a certain age. Usually around 21. Until then they are (technically) outside of the strictures of the church.

[AmishDude]

Despite being committed pacifists, there are a number of Amish who have served in the military as unarmed medics, and have been decorated for valor for saving lives while under fire

The Mennonites are pacifists, too, and I'm sure there are many more such stories about them (personally, I think the Amish are too cloistered to work in such an environment). This was, of course, before the boxer Muhammed Ali made a mockery of conscientious objector status.

[Diddle E. Squat]

Gee, ya mean Mushroom Sorkin and the 'West Wing' got it wrong?

[AndyJackson]

That's all we need, yet another incompetent, unaccountable agency fighting over turf. No, we need to reform and rebuild the FBI.

What? I thought the Transportation Security Agency and Homeland Defense were raving successes. /sarcasm
