i googled the name

Sgt Hicham Benkabbou and surprisingly NO american msm (i looked at two pages of hits) was there. why not? is it because he was born in morocco? is it because he's muslim? could be, BUT he's also been serving IN THE UNITED STATES ARMY (paratrooper) in AFGHANISTAN.

why did i look his name up? well, because upon his return to the united states FROM HIS POSITION AS A PARATROOPER IN THE UNITED STATES ARMY, STATIONED IN AFGHANISTAN, THERE IS A CHANCE FOR HIM TO BE DEPORTED

thanks for serving america hicham, but don't like the door hit you in the ass when we kick you out

Sgt Hicham Benkabbou has been served with an order to stand trial for deportation as soon as he arrives home, despite the fact that he has been on active service in Afghanistan for almost two years with the 508th parachute infantry regiment, known as the Red Devils..........

I hate to say it but I've seen other kicked out as suddenly. One guy was from Jamaica and the other from Mexico. No, it is not right in any case but I have to say his being muslim probably makes no difference. His best chance is to get his senator involved. It has worked in other cases.

We live in a nation which no longer has a soul. These kinds of things can't happen when a nation has a conscience and is led by moral men exhibiting moral behavior.

The thing that I find most amazing in these cases were some bureaucratic "T" wasn't crossed or "i" doted is that these people want to serve and feel an obligation to give something back to the country. This is in stark contrast to Americans born here who never serve and refuse to push their children into the service even though THEY may give lip service to supporting the troops and agree with Bush that the country is in a war. Fighting is for someone else's children to do. As Rick said the country, with very few exceptions, has lost it's soul. When that happens God, destiny, history, the universe, or who or whatever usually has a surprise coming for such people.
