Our Commander-in-Chief took a sworn oath to protect and defend the United States and the Constitution. But in this instance, it looks like the oath is to the Quran. Muslims had a far greater victory on 9/11 than they could have even dreamed as the ripples are worming their way into our military. This is UNFATHOMABLE!
The Pentagon issued orders for troops in the field to refrain from eating and drinking during the day during Ramadan.
U.S. military members serving in countries that observe Ramadan are required to adhere to certain practices while outside U.S. installations. One part of Ramadan is that those observing the holiday fast from dawn until sunset.
When outside U.S. controlled areas, eating and drinking in public during daylight hours is against the law.
Here are a few more directives from CENTCOM:
Failure to obey could result in fines up to $685 or a sentence of up to two months in jail. “The commander’s policy dictates that airmen will adhere to local law, which prohibits eating, drinking or tobacco use off base in public,” said Sickles.
The only personnel exempt from this requirement are those performing strenuous labor outside U.S. controlled areas. They are authorized to drink and consume as much food as they need to maintain proper hydration and energy.
Here’s a question for all of us Christian conservatives who love the military: As of Friday’s Supreme Court ruling destroying the legal definition of marriage and now the U.S. military’s enforcement of Sharia law — what is the military to us? Is serving in the military now completely opposed to American values?
God help us.
