National Security by committee, like the old Soviet Politburo.
On one hand, you have National Security be Committee.
On the other hand, you have Jones saying this: But he made clear he plans to apply military-like discipline to the NSC.
They are conflicted in what they are planning. You cannot have a committee with the goal of everyone agreeing while applying military-like discipline.
This is a guaranteed fubar.
New Politburo, new USSR.
