Default Muslim Soldier Refuses to Deploy Overseas

Quote:
A U.S. Army soldier wants to leave the military service as a conscientious objector based on his beliefs as a Muslim, but he says he’s concerned he may be deployed to Afghanistan anyway.
Pfc. Naser [sic] Abdo, 20, an infantryman assigned to the 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Ky., said Monday that if the military orders him to deploy, he will refuse to go despite the fact that it may result in a military charge against him.

Sounds like someone just wanted attention. Why else would he join the Army in 09 knowing that he'd most likely get sent overseas?

Anyone notice he seems to smirk a lot during this video?
