Why Muslims Want This Veteran Dead... But Hes Refusing To Back Down Retired Marine Major R.E.G. Fox Sinke, Jr. has continued his position standing guard over Canadas National War Museum. He has been receiving numerous death threats from Muslims living in the area. Sinke is a highly decorated war veteran, who has earned himself four Purple Hearts from his tours in Vietnam. He is a Candian-American dual citizen. And he made the decision to stand guard of the war memorial out of respect for Corporal Nathan Circillo, who was killed by a terrorist while standing guard at the same site.. The murder of the young Cpt. Cirillo was so despicable and craven that I just couldnt find it within myself to do nothing, Sinke told reporters. Sinke stood guard alone for eight hours at the memorial before armed police officers arrived to join him. Since he has literally and figuratively taken a stand, Sinke has received numerous death threats, many of which arrive in Arabic. Policy have shown concern over the harsh words, but Sinke does not appear worried. If theyre looking for a fight they came to the right guy. I promise you this: If they come here theyll die here.
