Well, America, today the fox is guarding the hen house. The wolves will be herding the sheep! Obamma appointed two devout Muslims to home land security posts.Doesn't this make you feel safer already?
Obamma and Janet Nappy Head appointed Arif Alikhan, a devout Muslim, as Assistant Secretary for Policy Development. DHS Secretary Janet Nappy Head appointed Kareem Shora, a devout Muslim, who was born in Damascus Syria, as ADC National Executive Director as a member of the Homeland Security Advisory Council (HSAC).
NOTE:Has anyone ever heard a new government official being identified as a devout Catholic, a devout Jew or a devout Protestant....?Just wondering.
Devout Muslims being appointed to critical Homeland Security positions? That should make our homeland much safer, huh!!
Was it not "Devout Muslim men"that flew planes into U.S. buildings 8 years ago? Was it not a Devout Muslim who killed 13 at Fort Hood?
Do Americans care about the future of our Country ?

To answer the title of the thread, they are on AMERICA'S SIDE!
How about showing some PATRIOTISM toward the LEADERS of OUR COUNTRY!
How about stop INSULTING the leaders of OUR COUNTRY.
How about YOU stop giving AMMO TO OUR FOREIGN ENEMIES by trying to UNDERMINE OUR LEADERS.

That means ALL Americans - all races, creeds, colors, backgrounds
By the way, do you know the inspiration for the "Don't Tread On Me" flag?

Well well well. Because everyone of the Muslim religion must be a terrorist, huh?
As Deputy Mayor of Homeland Security in Los Angeles, Alikhan was responsible for overseeing the Los Angeles Police Department, Los Angeles Fire Department, Emergency Management Department, their combined budgets of over $2 billion, and managing over $400 million in federal and state grants. He was appointed to the position in September 2006 by Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa to replace Maurice Suh, currently a partner at the law firm of Gibson, Dunn, and Crutcher in Los Angeles. [3].
Arif Alikhan is currently Assistant Secretary for Policy Development at the United States Department of Homeland Security. He is a former Deputy Mayor of Homeland Security and Public Safety for the City of Los Angeles and a former federal prosecutor with the United States Department of Justice in both Los Angeles and Washington, D.C.
Alikhan's efforts to hire 1,000 new LAPD officers resulted in the highest deployment level in LAPD history before Alikhan left for Washington. Additionally, Mr. Alikhan significantly advanced the Mayor’s emergency preparedness and counter-terrorism initiatives, substantially increased cooperation with federal, state and local law enforcement agencies, led the effort to create the L.A. Fire Department's Professional Standards Division, and helped secure over $400 million in homeland security and public safety grants for the Los Angeles region. He was also a key coordinator and government official at major emergencies including numerous wild fires and the 2008 Chatsworth train collision that killed 25 people and injured over 300 train passengers.
Alikhan's career in law enforcement, public safety, and homeland security also included service as a Technical Reserve Police Officer in Newport Beach, California, prosecuting juveniles while working in the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office, and prosecuting misdemeanor crimes with the Anaheim City Attorney's Office. [5] He then served 10 years with the U.S. Department of Justice as a federal prosecutor in Los Angeles from 1997 to 2005 and then as a senior official at the Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. from 2005 through 2006.
Alikhan graduated *** laude from the University of California at Irvine in 1990 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Social Ecology. He studied criminal justice, criminology and legal studies and conducted research in environmental analysis. He was a member of the Kappa Sigma fraternity (Mu Delta) and was appointed Commissioner of Campus Safety by the Associated Students of UC Irvine (ASUCI). He later attended Loyola Law School, Los Angeles where he graduated with honors and was the Chief Articles Editor of the Loyola Law Review.[9] He subsequently worked as a Judicial Law Clerk for the Honorable Ronald S.W. Lew, United States District Judge, Central District of California, in Los Angeles [10] and then as an associate for the law firm of Irell and Manella, in Century City [11].
Wow. It sounds like he's done a lot for America. What have YOU done? I mean, other than showcase your racist, bigoted views on chat forums?
Stop insulting AMERICANS and STAND BEHIND OUR COUNTRY AND OUR LEADERS!
I'm not insulting Americans and I do stand behind our country
It's the so called 'LEADERS' of this administration's and their MISGUIDED agenda that they have many believing that big government knows whats best for me and America and their
policies and actions show this not to be the case !
When you produce a personal resume that shows that you have done even half of what that man has gone out and done for this country, I'll take you seriously.
Muslims! Commies! Liberals! Illegals! whatever...It's always a good idea to maintain the American tradition of checking under your bed before going to sleep at night.
And how are the ME countries acting to eliminate and bring to justice all those zealots ? Why is it the US has to go over there to clean up ?
Where is their country's involvement and public showing of how they are making inroads to squash this growing segment of extremists that are assimilating into more and more countries all over the globe ?
In your own question lies your answer. It's not just the ME or more accurately South Central Asia that is the root cause. There are many examples of peace accords and movement between many before the US "went in to clean up." What do you think started the whole thing anyway in current times?
Who do you think encouraged the establishment of madrasa's? Who do you think let the extremists take over in the power vaccum left by....US? Who do you think provided funding for those extremists in exchange for doing business in their countries? Who do you think make's it more difficult for those countries to embrace change when we go poking our noses into places we don't belong or encouraging those who commit oppression for some "elbow room"?
By engaging in a "us or them" mentality we only enlarge their power, and their influence, not diminish it. Their entire goal is to make us live like them. Our over-reaction to 9-11 and our policies during the time after that, played right into their hands. They want to alienate us. They want to make us live in a police state. They want to force us to get involved and kill as many American's as they can by a slow bleed process.
They are winning, simply because of that mind-set. By forcing us to eschew our values and principles. They win. By instilling a divide among our people and our political process and lives, they win. By creating strife and outward hate they achieve one of Sun Tzu's principle goals and win the hard battle. By forcing us to play the hand they deal us, they win. And by doing so, they don't have to listen to their countries who embrace a democracy or an open society to different cultures or religions. They can win, by letting us do the fighting for them.

I do not see anywhere in the DHA statement where they even mention the word Muslim.
