What do you think of this story.

Is it just an agent exercising his right to freedom of religion.

And is it also the story of a the fbi's leadership supporting diversity in the work place.

I saw the Factor tonight and if the man didn't do what he was supposed to do, fire him and his boss. We NEED information from whatever source we can get to protect our country, it's establishments and it's citizens. Bad form for our FBI.

I find it funny that they put the guy who would not wear a wire against a fellow Muslim in charge of a Muslim operation in the middle east. IMO that would mean that he might temper his teams investigations against Muslims. As such that would mean that any information, coming out of that office might well be suspect or at least weak. A guy who wont wear a wire against fellow Muslims may very well not send agents where they need to be against fellow Muslims and might very well suppress information. This problem if real is about the most incompetent thing that Muller (the FBI head honcho) could have done.

The fellar who is putting his religion over his country needs to be evaluated and if appropriate to keep him he should be re-assigned to a non Muslim related intelligence role. If he was mainly hired for his abilities to speak the language then he should be fired (this is obviously not the job for him).

Dum to send in a Moslem agent to catch a Moslem.

Like sending a Jewish undercover to to catch a Jewish peep.

Never works.

Shahani,

There are many Muslim agents which will perform their duty to country. A muslim merely needs to realize that they are not attacking a brother if that brother is a terrorist or criminal. I do not think the koran says that you should let criminal brothers continue their rampage. In fact they are not Muslims if they do not follow the teachings of Mohammad are they? So wearing a wire against a murderous criminal bend on world wide terror should not be a problem for most agents. I am sure that there are plenty of good agents or prospects for agents that will do their job.

Theoretikally you may be right.

In real life, dead rong.

What I says is the reality.

actually it is fact there are muslim agents who gather information on fellow muslims all the time.

Do you think that 007 white catholic englishmen is running around pakistan looking for bad guys?

007? Bond? I thought he was English.

I still wouldn't send a Moslem Arab or a Jew to look for Moslem-Arab or Jew peeps respectively.

I'd switch them around.
