  • Is this program dangerous? safety issues? risks?

  • I laugh my ass off when they say "soldiers"

    Been there, done that.

  • hey do u know if i can apply for the program from iraq i heard about it ?? idont have greencard and never been in the state do u have any idea about it? thanx in advance

  • @adamitshelanu

    If you don't already have what it takes to be US Citizen, you can not join the Army, by joining the US Armed force you are entitle to two things, the Immigration fee is waved ($700.00) and your citizenship process is expedited, if you inter this country illegally or have no rights to the green card (PRC) you can not join the service period. I was born somewhere else as well but I was already a citizen when I joined military.

  • If we were not in the Middle East in the first place being the Policemen of the world, it would not be necessary to have these people here!! Bring the troops home and station them on the northern and southern borders!!

  • this program has its merits, however, it sems that there is some question about 5 of them who are under investigation for threatening or attmepting to poison the food supply at Ft Jackson. The investigation started in december and is just now coming to the light of day to the public. How can one trust those of a culture in which many are our enemy?

  • We shall see how this turns out.

    Certainly LOYAL speakers of Arabic language and dialects and certain other Middle Eastern countries would be a critical resource.

    I feel this video is not sufficiently forth coming about how candidates are chosen. It seems clear that they are not U.S. born and not born to naive American parents.

    Is this the "easy route" to U.S. citizenship?

    What role, if any, does the Council on American-Islamic Relations in this program?
