General Overturns Reprimand Against Muslim Army Chaplain

General Overturns Reprimand Against Muslim Army Chaplain
The Associated Press

MIAMI (AP) - A general Wednesday threw out the reprimand received by Muslim Army chaplain Capt. James Yee for committing adultery and downloading pornography.

(snip 2 paras)

Yee, 35, spent 76 days in custody after the military linked him to the possible espionage ring. Last month, the Army dismissed all criminal charges, but Yee was found guilty of the non-criminal violations of adultery and downloading porn.

(so that's it, a bunch of BS. His crime appears to have been that he served them baclava on some holiday).

1. it was the least they could do, considering they most assuredly planted

that pr0n on his computer to make up for the fact they had nothing, absolutely NOTHING, on this guy. But, he will forever be remembered as a spying, adulterous porn addict. A Richard Jewel for the new millennium.

3. What was the motive for going after this Muslim Chaplain

1. - Because he was a Muslim, and it would be good propagada?

2. - To set an example to keep the troops in line?

3. - Why is the Army hiding all the facts? Who were the liars and why did they lie?

4. Another Wen Ho Lee case, except that this time it was religious

instead of ethnic. Prejudice is alive and well in the U. S., and assisted by the Patriot Act.

5. I have a thought!

Why doesn't the FBI and CIA get busy chasing actual terrorists instead of cracking down on adultery and porn.

Let's see, how much time and money was spent nailing Clinton on porn? (Oh, I forgot, it was about the lying. However, these scum seem to lie every time they open their mouths � only it's not about sex it's about trivial things like fake pretexts for invading a country.)

And, weren't a bunch of agents in New Orleans tracking prostitutes or something prior to 9-11, while Ashcroft was busy covering breasts with curtains?
