We canned a lot of Arabic translators over the years of the GWOT for being gay. Incredibly stupid, IMO. Consequently the pressure was on to find Arabic speakers. I’d like to know the breakdown of the citizenship status of the treasonous translators— the story mentions that several of them are ‘egyptian and syrian immigrants’.
DADT has done a lot of harm, but to my mind this has long been one of the worst effects of it.

In addition to bouncing gays, the DOD will not hire Arabic-speaking Mizrachi Jews either.
