Muslim US soldier sues ARMY claims she was forced to rip off her hijab

Time for a muslim military ban.

A Muslim soldier says she will sue the US Army because her commanding officer forced her to pull off her hijab, according to a report Wednesday.

Spc. Cecilia Valdovinos, who converted to Islam in 2016, says she had special permission from her brigade commander to wear the religious head covering as part of her uniform.

But during a suicide prevention briefing March 6, Valdovinos, 26, says Command Sgt. Maj. Kerstin Montoya grabbed her by the arm, took her outside and made her rip off her hijab in front of others, the Army Times reported.

“To me, it was the same thing as if they had asked someone to take their top off,” Valdovinos, who is a member of the 704th Brigade Support Battalion in Fort Carson, Colorado, told the outlet.

Montoya apparently believed that Valdovinos was wearing her hair down under the hijab — rather than in a bun, per regulation, the soldier said.

In an equal opportunity complaint filed March 7, Valdovinos said the sergeant called her “the girl with the hood.” Previously, another soldier called her a terrorist, she said.

The command denied any discrimination.

“The findings of our commander’s inquiry determined the senior non-commissioned officer acted appropriately by enforcing the proper wear of the hijab, in compliance with Army regulations,” Col. David Zinn, who commands the 2nd Infantry Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, said in a statement to Army Times.

Valdovinos was demoted this week following an unrelated investigation into “A quote, ‘inappropriate relationship,'” said her lawyer, Mikey Weinstein, founder of the Military Religious Freedom Foundation. He believes coverage of the hijab incident contributed to the punishment.

She is considering filing a federal complaint alleging a violation of her civil rights either in northern Virginia or Denver, said Weinstein.

1. Women should not be in the military, except as nurses.

2. Muslims should not be in the military, or in America, or anywhere else in the civilized world.
