What drove a Muslim U.S. Marine recruit to jump to his death? Authorities say Raheel Siddiqui leaped over a third-story barracks railing at the iconic Marine training base at Parris Island, killing himself. But allegations soon arose that he'd been hit and hazed by a drill instructor just before his death. Despite that, a South Carolina coroner deemed it a suicide - an act his family insists that Raheel, as a faithful Muslim and a doting son, was morally and constitutionally incapable of making. Ref. USAToday.
First, just like any other American Muslims should and can serve in our military. It's just that simple. Next, as far as this is concerned, I'd have to see the circumstances surrounding this. Sometimes people feel overwhelmed and suicide seems to be their only option. But it could be something else as well.
