Scandal probe ensnares commander of U.S., NATO troops in Afghanistan ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST
Washington Post ^ | November 12, 2012 | Craig Whitlock

Posted on 11/12/2012 10:22:04 PM PST by JouleZ

Here we go again. Obama is taking down the leadership of Americas military.(my words)

According to a senior U.S. defense official, the FBI has uncovered between 20,000 and 30,000 pages of “potentially inappropriate” emails between Allen and Jill Kelley, a 37-year-old Tampa woman whose close friendship with Petraeus ultimately led to his downfall. Allen, a Marine, succeeded Petraeus as the top allied commander in Afghanistan in July 2011.

"Can you trust your neighbor anymore?"

I wasn't able to trust one of my neighbors for 30 years.

They finally moved.

Now we know why Jill Kelley hired a top criminal defense attorney for herself. Her alleged lover, Gen Allen could be subject to courts martial and it is possible that she came into possession of classifed information involving Allen’s Central Command (HQ in Tampa with responsibilty for Iraq, Afghanistan and Somalia, IIRC).

the conservative blond said “cover-up” while the others gasped!

That would be Elizabeth Hasselbeck .... her role is "conservative doormat", she's there to let the others righteously scold her. Baba Wawa is the ringleader and instigatrix. Whoopi Goldberg is on-again-off-again intelligent, Baba is intelligent but complicit in the Hive Mind, and that other one I wouldn't give you five cents for, she's a typically bigoted, cluelesss Easterner who thinks civilization stops at the Catskills.

One thing of interest (if it could be ascertained) would be 0bastard and peeps reactions to all this; their demeanour, facial expressions, statements, actions and so on.

Hmmm, I'll try: Smirking, nudging, sniling, eye-flitting, fist-bumping, low-fiving, followed by open laughter at the People of the United States. They so white -- what can you do with them? Hopeless, bro.

Hmmm. CVN commander gone. CIA head gone. Afghan theater commander gone.

Does anybody see a quiet, slow motion coup going on here?

I was specifically thinking of their reaction to Patreaus resigning. Some people are speculating he may have resigned for honorable reasons and may spill beans. If so, this will make them nervous.

Yes except that it doesn’t seem quiet or slow-mo.

Everyone in any position who knows/could do something can’t be evil. Not 100% of them.

Define 'evil'. One doesn't move around in those circles, no scratch that, one doesn't even *enter* into those circles, unless one has been co-opted to one degree, or another. At that level, even if a given individual is not what you would call 'evil to the core' like Obama and Jarrett, such an individual would be so severely compromised as to render them ineffectual.

For quite a long time now, our national defense, and foreign policies have been under the iron-clad monopoly of a few small, incestuous organizations, namely the Council on Foreign Relations, and the Tri-Lateral Commission. Their openly stated goal is "World Governance", or simply put a one-world government. Any Bible-believing Christian should understand at once what that means in the end. It is a poorly camouflaged description of the Antichrist, and his government which is to come...

So, are you saying this outrageous behavior didn’t happen, or that somehow Obama forced them to behave in this dishonorable fashion? The military top brass has become politicized and corrupt. One could say that Americans are getting the leaders they deserve.

I think you’re right, they want those loyal to the regime in those positions, I think we had a fraudulent election, a coup, they won’t give up power again, amnesty with 9% unemployment, they are drunk on power.

Yes, it does. It's plain English.

Er, the report was "20 to 30,000 pages". That's plain English.

It was not "20 to 30,000 e-mails".

What the hell is going on.

That, sir, is -- as they say -- a very good question.
