From Washington Times account of Jon Kyl’s hearings yesterday:

Charles Abell, a deputy undersecretary for personnel and readiness for the department, said the Pentagon will seek out new Muslim organizations to endorse chaplains. The department now relies on two groups, both of which have been accused of holding radical views and supporting terrorists.
“As a result of the last several months of activities, we are looking around to see if there are organizations that might provide us Muslim chaplains other than the two that currently provide it,” he said.
Mr. Abell also said the department cut corners in its rush to hire Arabic translators after September 11.
“I think it’s fair to say that folks who were brought on with sort of interim-level checks, and then the more detailed checks to follow — I think the results of that are as we are seeing here. We have found a couple who were not as trustworthy as we had hoped initially,” he told a Senate Judiciary Committee subcommittee.
