The Duffel Blog calls upon Army Secretary John McHugh to admit his secret zoroastrianism

Filed · 1543

Enough is enough, and despite numerous "no comments," obfuscations, and outright lies, Duffel Blog editorial board remains resolute in its duty to the American people to expose Secretary of the Army John McHugh as the closeted Zoroastrian that he is.

McHugh's adherence to the two and a half thousand year old Persian faith has been the topic of much debate. We all remember the famous "Feinstein Debacle" which occurred on the Senate floor prior to his appointment. Yet, despite the initial uproar, the elitists in Washington and the majority of the "mainstream media" has consistently bought McHugh's lies about not worshiping the Iranian tribal goddess of wisdom, Ahura Mazda.
