Your logic does not apply to yourself - Muslim workers can protest, but if they did so while you were in need of their service you would die.
Silly hypothetical. He refused to guard the embassy. Full Stop.

Obviously someone else was posted in his place so the function is still being performed.

And policemen are confronted with moral/ethical choices all the time; it is why they may let one speeder off with a warning but ticket another, etc.
