Why is president elect Barack Obama hiring AIPAC’s friend, Rahm Emmanuel?

Why did Rahm Emmanuel serve in the Israeli military (see video above), but not the American military? Has Rahm Emmanuel sworn any type of oath during his Israeli military service which might cause a conflict of interest? What exactly is our intelligence communities policy in regard to people with this type of potential conflict and approval of a security clearance? Clearance which must be at or near the highest levels for a chief of staff to the president.

Are no former members of the US military qualified?

Should any or all of this be overlooked, even approved of, to the point such a person should serve as chief of staff to any president of the United States?

Rahm Emmanuel? No Jane, I’m not joking.
