” One source told me”

Funny how no one has a name.

“Since March I’ve written that McMaster should not be national security advisor because he believes that Islam has no relationship to terrorism.”

That’s just a lie. McMaster uses the same term as the King of Jordan and other of our Gulf allies to describe terrorist Islam- and that’s “political Islam”. Mattis does exactly the same thing. But they won’t use terms that our Muslim allies in the fight against ISIS and the Taliban find insulting. Anyone who thinks that we don’t have Muslim allies needs to explain who they think is doing the bulk of the heavy door to door fighting in Mosul and Raqqa.

President Trump reiterated his support for McMaster just last Friday. Jeb Babbin isn’t wiser than Trump.

That’s bull squat. McMaster has been a religion of peace guy since 9-12-01. He is not to be trusted. And as far as I’m concerned Mattiis is just as bad. Trump is not omniscient and has an obvious soft spot for Generals. there’s no good reason why upwards of 40 obama NSC scum are STILL in the White House.

The phrase 'Political Islam' is just a bunch of nation building nonsense, its the equivalent of the word cuckold. I do not know why anyone on this site still believes Islam can be manipulated by internal changes in their hegemony. Since the 19th century, "socialist" who are experts at manipulating the hegemony knew in the early 20th century that Islam is a counter-hegemonic force.

The only group that can tame Islam are the Ba'athists. Quit being enamored by this guy just because he followed a blueprint of a tank battle back in the early '90s. The US had a supreme technological edge where numbers hardly mattered. After Lt. Colonel rank its becomes an ass kissing contest where 'full-bird' then 'stars' is just who can best become a political manipulator. Everybody is taught the same strategies, its only a matter of will to use the correct ones. Hell, Congress can't even declare a Constitutional war where an end strategy is enumerated. It's just appease, appease, appease, attrition, attrition, attrition (Despite what McMaster says it is not) There are only a few pioneers in military strategy, the rest like McMaster's theories such COIN become utter expensive failures.

Tell me, has COIN worked? Its been what 15 years. You admire a man who is just a political and corporate whore. Shame on you.
