The vast majority of our service members don’t support the immorality. Our entire country has taken an evil path, and unless we return as a whole to the faith that built this country, all is lost.
I would that we never entered the lands of the false prophet. With or without intent, only evil can come of allying with evil. There is not one country that we can trust, and we have proven disloyal to every faction whom we should have supported.
The troops on the ground have been used without regard to ideal. Just as people here have been caught off guard with the depths of evil, so have our warriors. The very loyalty and trust that makes one a good soldier becomes a liability when that trust is broken. This administration has betrayed everything and everyone it touches.
Normalcy bias is just as prevalent in the military as the rest of the country. The realization of evil comes slowly and without easy answer. You speak of oaths, and those who honor that oath are constrained by problems that defy simple answers.
Comparing this country to Egypt or any other country is fallacious. Our country hasn’t been seized by force, it has been corrupted from within. The evils that you list are but symptoms of a country that has turned from God or, if you are not religious, has replaced liberty with license.
Suggesting a domestic military response would alleviate moral decay is to invite tyranny on a level never seen on this planet. The military is restricted by nature to warfare. The only logical outcome to such a scenario is to progress from our “Banana Republic” to a military junta. There may come a time when that is the only response; however by then there will be nothing left to save.
Nailed it.
"The vast majority of our service members don’t support the immorality."
I maintain if someone is a soldier for that immorality, that constitutes support.
It's a volunteer army; no one has to stay. Silence is assent.
One can still be "of service" and patriotic in any manner of civilian GS.
While honoring their Oath involves sacrifice, I argue 1) that 'and domestic' was written for a very specific purpose, and 2) our current situation is exactly that purpose.
I agree with most of what you say, particularly, "Our country hasn’t been seized by force, it has been corrupted from within. The evils that you list are but symptoms of a country that has turned from God..."
Thanks for your thoughtful engagement.
