At this point nobody knows what will happen,,,
We can only take what we have learned and make a guess,,,
The kids did a fine job with what they had to work with,,,
My housemate’s son is now home from Iraq after 3 tours,,,
(10th Mtn.Div.)
2nd tour was near 18 months in Mahmudiyh,,,
The ROE was not so much of a problem for them,,,
Her SIL is in A-Stan now,,,
Different story there,,,
The ROE is getting our guys killed,,,
I never had any problem with ROE during my tour,,,(67-68),,,
‘Nam was a free-fire zone...
Props to your friend’s son....I admire their ability to work under rules designed by traitor generals and idiot politicians (like Bush)...I couldn’t ever put up with that....In ‘Nam you also had isolated incidents of fragging...a good check.
Not a knock, but if they are able to work with rules that wacky, can you really trust them if they are called back up to put down civil insurrection which of couse will be demonized and called something completely else (as they have tried to demonize the Tea Party, Mosque Opponents, etc.)?
I usually remind folks of the obvious...look HOW MUCH has changed in just 18 months in terms of the utter destruction of America...You could not and we did not forsee how that could even possibly happen 2 -3 years ago....It’s only going to accelerate....Many, Many secret arrangements have been made during Obummer’s time with China, Russia, the Saudi’s....
For the most part, even the most ardent patriots (whether Tea party or whatever else), don’t really have a clue just how fast things are progressing (in a negative way). Judicious application of the boot by the nationalized police and associated thugs will work to keep most sheeple in their pens.
