Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell: Responsible For 9/11?

Nathaniel Frank, author of “Unfriendly Fire: How the Gay Ban Undermines the Military and Weakens America”, appeared on The Daily Show last night and offered an interesting theory: The military’s ban on gays is in part responsible for the success of the 9/11 attacks. 

It’s well-known that the military has discharged dozens of Arabic linguistics because of their homosexuality.

About four minutes into the video, Frank says, “You know that on September 10th, 2001, the U.S. government intercepted a cable that said, ‘Tomorrow is zero-hour.’ It wasn’t translated until the 12th because we didn’t have enough Arabic linguists.”

Chilling.
