THE BLAZE:
A highly decorated Army lieutenant colonel says he was essentially blacklisted by his superiors after more than 50 Muslim groups complained about a course he taught on radical Islam. Now he is fighting to get his career back.
As previously reported by The Blaze, Lt. Col. Matthew Dooley, a West Point graduate and decorated combat veteran, was an instructor at the Joint Forces Staff College at the National Defense University, where he was reportedly popular among students and fellow staff members, FoxNews.com reports.
That all changed when Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, slammed Dooley and his “Perspectives on Islam and Islamic Radicalism” course during a Pentagon press conference in May, calling his teachings unprofessional and “against our values.”
He was later given a negative Officer Evaluation Report (OER), which was unusual given the fact that Dooley had passed the evaluations with flying colors the previous five years. Dooley says a bad OER is like being blacklisted in military circles.
“This was a very heavy-handed approach from the very top,” Richard Thompson, president of the Thomas More Law Center, told Fox News. His organization is now representing Dooley in the case. To read one of their latest press releases on the case, click here.
“He had a brilliant career ahead of him,” Thompson added. “Now, he has been flagged…“They [superiors] ordered a negative evaluation. He will never have the opportunity for promotion unless this is overturned.”RTWT!
IF THEY CAN PREVENT OUR MILITARY FROM TEACHING THE TRUTH ABOUT ISLAMISM AND SCARE MILITARY LEADERS FROM SPEAKING OUT ABOUT IT, THEN - FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES - THEY CONTROL OUR MILITARY.
WE MUSTN'T LET THIS STAND.
