To violate the constitution is not treason but I agree that those involved should be brought to task for it. However, the few guys I know from the VFW are old Vietnam vets. We don't have many vets from Iraq and Afghanistan. Besides, I have 2 eyewitnesses to the fact that Bibles were allowed over in Saudi. My son who traveled through Saudi on his first tour to Iraq and an Air Force Master Sargent currently in Saudi. Both of them carried their Bibles in their duffel bags with all their other gear. My son said the bags were searched.
The complexity issue is whether or not the commanding officer who said to remove the Bibles was working under orders or was he just being heavy-handed in preventing proselytizing, which violates military regulations.
Were they personal Bibles or were they Bibles in a language of the locals? Bibles were confiscated in Afghanistan from an enlisted man because it was a large number of Bibles and they were written in an Afghanistan dialect. The enlisted man intended to give them out to the local people. That violated the military regulations and the Afghanistan law.
Frankly, I have found no reference to this wholesale confiscation of Bibles. Maybe it has been purged from internet news sources to hide it. That's why I was asking for a reference.
