The debate over national security threats is increasingly extending beyond foreign battlefields and into America\u2019s own institutions. Recent commentary from activist and journalist Amy Mek has renewed concerns among some conservatives that Islamist organizations may be seeking influence within government agencies, educational institutions, law enforcement, and even the U.S. military.\n<\/p>\n

Supporters of this view argue that America\u2019s greatest vulnerabilities may not come from conventional military attacks, but from ideological movements that seek to gain legitimacy and influence from within. They point to past investigations involving the Muslim Brotherhood, concerns about foreign-funded organizations operating in the United States, and ongoing debates about religious accommodations in government service. Critics contend that vigilance is necessary to ensure that loyalty to the Constitution remains paramount for all who serve in positions of public trust.\n<\/p>\n
The U.S. military has long relied on rigorous background investigations and security clearances to identify potential threats. Nevertheless, questions periodically arise about whether current vetting procedures are sufficient to identify individuals who may hold extremist sympathies or conflicting allegiances. Those concerns have been amplified in recent years as federal agencies have confronted threats ranging from foreign espionage to domestic extremism. While military leaders stress that service members of all faiths serve honorably, some national security advocates argue that ideological screening deserves renewed attention.\n<\/p>\n

As Mek shows in her post, Islam has been gaining traction in our nation\u2019s military. The video attached to her post shows soldiers helping other soldiers convert to Islam, encouraging them to swear allegiance to Allah.\n<\/p>\n
As Mek notes, this is likely part of the greater civilization jihad plan called for by the Muslim Brotherhood. Muslims are exploiting our tolerance, constitution, and religious freedom in order to enter our military. What comes next? Hijab waivers? Halal meals? Prayer breaks? Will we be forced to rely on a military made up of soldiers more loyal to an anti-Christian, anti-constitutional ideology than the nation they signed up to protect?\n<\/p>\n
This is, as Mek puts it, another way that America is being conquered without a single shot fired. As intercessors, let\u2019s pray against this attempt to subvert the military and American values. Let\u2019s pray for the protection of true religious freedom as well as our Christian virtues and values!\n<\/p>\n
