A course for US military officers has been teaching that America’s enemy is Islam in general, and suggesting that the US might ultimately have to obliterate the Islamic holy cities of Mecca and Medina without regard for civilian deaths, following World War II precedents of the nuclear attack on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
The Pentagon suspended the course in late April when a student objected to the material. The FBI also changed some agent training last year after discovering that it, too, was critical of Islam. The teaching in the military course was counter to repeated assertions by US officials over the past decade that America was at war against Islamic extremists, not the religion itself. “They hate everything you stand for and will never coexist with you, unless you submit,” the instructor, Lieutenant Colonel Matthew Dooley, said in a presentation last July for the course at Joint Forces Staff College in Norfolk, Virginia. The college, for professional military members, teaches mid-level officers and government civilians on subjects related to planning and executing war.Dooley also presumed, for the purposes of his theoretical war plan, that the Geneva conventions that set standards of armed conflict, are “no longer relevant”.
He adds: “This would leave open the option once again of taking war to a civilian population wherever necessary (the historical precedents of Dresden, Tokyo, Hiroshima, Nagasaki being applicable to the Mecca and Medina destruction decision point).”
His war plan suggests possible outcomes such as “Saudi Arabia threatened with starvation – Islam reduced to cult status”. A copy of the presentation was obtained and posted online by Wired.com’s Danger Room blog. Dooley still works for the college, but is no longer teaching, said the joint chiefs of staff chairman, General Martin Dempsey. Dooley has refused to comment.
The course on Islam had been taught since 2004, but was not part of the required core curriculum. It was offered five times a year, with about 20 students each time.
Though Dooley has been teaching at the college since August 2010, it was unclear when he took on that particular class called “Perspectives on Islam and Islamic Radicalism”.
The joint staff suspended the course after it had received a student complaint, and within days Dempsey ordered all service branches to review their training to ensure other courses do not use anti-Islamic material.
On Thursday, Dempsey said the material in the Norfolk course was counter to American “appreciation for religious freedom and cultural awareness”.
“It was just totally objectionable, against our values, and it wasn’t academically sound,” Dempsey said. “This wasn’t about … pushing back on liberal thought; this was objectionable, academically irresponsible.”
Then they ask us Why we hate them … shouldnt we be ?
Its never been a war against Terrorism its always been a war against religion !!! terrorism is just an excuse to do what they want !! They've been fooling their people using one of the oldest tricks in the books ''Ordo Ab Chao'' !!! Order out of chaos… The trick of creating chaos and then seizing power under the pretense of putting things back in order is a tried and true method of deception and manipulation !!!!
I doubt this news item. Its authenticity shud be probed.
It's true (on main news line)…
Washington Post, BBC put it out. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-18032968). Possibly would see it in New York Times tomorrow…
Islam is biggest threat to Christianity…… Knowing this, America is all set to demolish Islamic countries. Iraq, libya, sudan, afghanistan are latest example of its war against islam. China too is now supporting America for its war against Islam. Anti muslim firing in xinsang province of china killed 17 muslims. We must not trust US and China both.
Sometimes you have to reflect on why these things are happening! All these intolerance …
Is it possible that religion is being exploited?
We must improve our ties with India, as India is home to world’s third largest muslim population, and condition of muslims in India are far more better than muslims in our Pakistan.
People of the world, dont fight over religion. This is not a muslim or a christian speaking out. No matter what says in the books, MAN MADE RELIGION, to rule and be powerful. God would never make men fight over such things or kill each other or fight with each other. It is impossible to unite all the people of the world under a single ideology. Although Islam and even christianity tried to do the same but how many divisions do you see under the same ideologies?? In christianity people of one sect have committed mass murders just to suppress the opposite ideology. So be tolerant of each other and live and let live. Every religion or belief has a place on the earth AS LONG AS IT DOESNT TRY TO KILL OTHER BELIEFS.
AL Qaeda was right all along. Other armies of the free world should take their Q from Alq
When u keep harping that Jews/Christians/Hindus are your enemies for the last so many centuries, when u modify history to suit your religios bigotted theories, people of the outside world have to react at some point in time. This is one such reaction.
It is the self destruction policy for America, the Islam will prevail, InshaAllah
I can smell the third and final war just around the corner already.
I wonder how this teaching is not classed as exteremism? think of even destroying Mecca and Medina, i guess they want to provide new reasons to al qaeda like organisation to recruit some more. May be they want the re ignite hatred to achieve their goals. Even leak of this information cant be just a mistake and may be very well planned.
Its not so easy as matter of fact.These events r pushing the World to its end.Muslims r nuclear entities now nd their beleif is their strength.History s evident that how The Allmighty God has protected these holy ciTies in past… .
