US Military: Muslim Items IDPO

The line separating mosque and state becomes increasingly blurred.

Why does the government feel as if we have to buy Muslim garb, religious clothes, and Muslim books for children, if it's for our troops? Americans suffering over 10% unemployment, and this is where our looted hard-earned money is going? Who is this for?

This was just posted on December 8th — soliciting bids from the private sector on what we, the taxpayers, buy for troops and various depts within the government. Shocking. Call your congressmen. Enough with this crippling stupidity.

The Truth Must be Told

Your contribution supports independent journalism

Please take a moment to consider this. Now, more than ever, people are reading Geller Report for news they won't get anywhere else. But advertising revenues have all but disappeared. Google Adsense is the online advertising monopoly and they have banned us. Social media giants like Facebook and Twitter have blocked and shadow-banned our accounts. But we won't put up a paywall. Because never has the free world needed independent journalism more.

Everyone who reads our reporting knows the Geller Report covers the news the media won't. We cannot do our ground-breaking report without your support. We must continue to report on the global jihad and the left's war on freedom. Our readers’ contributions make that possible.

Geller Report's independent, investigative journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe our work is critical in the fight for freedom and because it is your fight, too.
