Lt. Col. Ralph Peters on our military’s politically correct Rules of Engagement

Lt. Col. Ralph Peters discusses the politically correct Afghan strategy and the suicidal Rules of Engagement our military and civilian leaders have sent our servicemen and women into battle with.
He’s in agreement with me that Taliban so-called “reconciliation” is nothing more than bribery. He also describes our counterinsurgency strategy as “touch-feely.” He’s spot on.

20% terrorist recidivism rate acceptable to Obama’s terrorism czar; Obama dictatorial-like behavior continues; Ellis Washington on Thomas Sowell

President Obama’s counterterrorism czar believes that a 20% terrorist recidivism rate is “acceptable.” He compares terrorists to criminals (I know, it’s shocking an Obama administration official would do such a thing!). We shouldn’t be satisfied with a 20% recidivism rate. We should strive for 0%.
What have President Obama and Rahm Emanuel learned from Scott Brown’s [...]

Pentagon refuses to acknowledge the involvement of political correctness in Ft. Hood terrorist attack

Civilian and military brass at the Pentagon want you to believe that the terrorist attack (oh wait, they won’t even call it a terrorist attack) was the result of negligence by Maj. Nidal Hasan’s superiors in the Army. As I’ve written about before, the attack wasn’t the result of negligence, it’s the result of radical [...]

Combat reporters during WWII vs. combat reporters during the War on Terror

The fine folks at the History Channel were kind enough to send me a copy of their fantastic documentary that aired a few weeks ago, WWII in HD. I’ll have much more on the series after the first of the year, but a one part in particular stood out immediately in my mind.
It was the [...]

December 7, 1941–Pearl Harbor Day

Today is the 68th anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. 2400 people died on that base this day 68 years ago.
Please remember them and those who sacrificed their lives in WWII.

Chris Matthews calls West Point “enemy camp”

It’s Chris Matthews, do I need to say more? This was a Freudian slip. Liberals do believe the military is their enemy. He and his ilk in the media loathe the United States military.
All I have to say is thank god we don’t rely on vermin like Chris Matthews to stand a post and [...]

U.S. Army setting Ft. Hood terrorist’s PTSD defense on a tee

The Army will be giving Maj. Nidal Hasan a mental evaluation, ostensibly testing for the liberal-pushed Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD):
The military plans a mental evaluation to determine whether the Army psychiatrist charged with killing 13 people at Fort Hood knew his alleged actions were wrong and whether he’s competent to stand trial, his civilian [...]

Robert (The New John McCain) Gates and Mike Mullen: Purveyors of Political Correctness

Defense Secretary Robert (The New John McCain) Gates and Joint Chiefs Chairman Admiral Mike Mullen make me sick. They held a press conference today regarding the Ft. Hood terrorist attack. Of course they didn’t refer to it as such.
Asked if he believed the assault was a “terrorist attack,” Gates said: “I’m just not going [...]

Politically Correct Rules of Engagement (ROE) Getting Our Troops Killed

As we found out with the Ft. Hood terrorist attack, political correctness is literally killing American civilians. This has been the case in the military for quite some time, but thanks to a well-written story in the Washington Times, we get a much better idea of just how deadly politically correct ROE are.
Our enemy has [...]
