When Religion takes precedence over Patriotism

In case anyone has missed this, I've got this little tidbit for people.

A radical American imam living in Yemen who had contact with two 9/11 hijackers praised Hasan as a hero as a hero on his personal Web site Monday.
The posting on the Web site for Anwar al Awlaki, who was a spiritual leader at two mosques where three 9/11 hijackers worshipped, said American Muslims who condemned the Fort Hood attack are hypocrites who have committed treason against their religion.
Awlaki said the only way a Muslim can justify serving in the U.S. military is if he intends to "follow in the footsteps of men like Nidal."
"Nidal Hassan (sic) is a hero," Awlaki said. "He is a man of conscience who could not bear living the contradiction of being a Muslim and serving in an army that is fighting against his own people."


If this is true, then maybe it's time to put some internment camps up, or at the very least, bar Muslim's from serving in the US Armed Forces.  If this Imam is right when he says, "A Muslim is a Muslim, regardless of his birthplace," then how how can we trust people who put their religion above the oath they took to protect the Constitution?  If they can turn on us at any time, and even shoot us in the back, then maybe it's time to stand up for what's right and tell them no.

After all, if their only true oath is to a 6th century religion, then how can a soldier trust that the man that's guarding his back, won't shoot him, instead of the terrorists?
