Do you think the “Infidel” line is deliberately and unnecessarily provocative, or is it a sarcastic way to embrace the insults?

I think it's a GIANT, right and proper, FCK YEW!

"Unnecessarily provocative"?  Kidding me, right?  They're ordered not to urinate in mecca's direction, fer cryin' out loud, lest that be "provocative"; not to eat in front of Afghans during ramadan, lest that be "provocative".  Them being there, breathing, is "provocative".

Yeah, I think the author a bit naive.  That soldiers embrace their difference is a GOOD thing!  Who wants to behave like Muzzies?

 ::)

Provacative?  What does that jackass think about beheadings?  Just Muzzie boys being Muzzie boys?

Infidel apparel is a HUGE hit on my base. almost every one of us has at least one infidel sticker somewhere or a shirt or what-have you. some of us even have that tattooed on us. Most soldiers do not care if they are provocative towards these people. many of the "hodgies", as they are "lovingly" called by those in uniform, try to kill as many of us as they can every day. we have no love for them and so, try to be as provocative as possible. Now dont get me wrong, the ones that actually show us kindness and work on our FOBs and all that are shown the respect that they have earned from us. Infidel apparel will definately be getting more of my patronage.  ::mooning::

There's one comment there about such accouterments being prohibited. Has anyone gotten any official flack?

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

technically they are when in uniform and on duty, but because the opinion is pretty much universal among the enlisted that no one really says anything.

Sorry to go pedantic on you boys, but Hadji (the character from Johnny Quest) is Indian.
The correct spelling is hajjies. The Hajj is the Moslem pilgrimage to the holy cities.
Yep spent some time over there on the original foreign exchange program. Our artillery shells for their lives.
We didn't spend a lot of time talking but I was able to pick up a little of the local knowledge.

Hajjies.  Cult of Mohammad (the Murderous Pedophile), Jihadi's...

By any name I curse them to hell!
