    Lieutenant Colonel Matthew Dooley’s career has been effectively destroyed by General Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, various complicit members of the Pentagon and the military and, most of all, political correctness on the part of the U.S. government. Col. Dooley, who was awarded the Bronze Star, the fourth-highest combat decoration, is a West Point graduate and highly rated armor officer who served in Iraq, Germany, Bosnia and Kuwait. He was, until recently, the instructor of a course to fellow officers on the dangers of radical Islam at the Joint Forces Staff College (part of the National...

    ANN ARBOR, MI – During a Pentagon press conference on May 10, 2012, General Martin Dempsey, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, publicly excoriated Lieutenant Colonel (LTC) Matthew Dooley, a 1994 graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and a highly decorated combat veteran. His reason: The course on Islamic Radicalism which LTC Dooley was teaching at the Joint Forces Staff College (JFSC) of the National Defense University was offensive to Muslims. General Dempsey characterized LTC Dooley’s course as "totally objectionable," and ordered all material offensive to Islam scrubbed from military professional education within the JFSC and...

German television networks yesterday aired the video clip. “You're in the Bronx, a black van pulls up in front of you and three African-Americans get out and start really insulting your mother ... now do something!” the instructor says in German while a recruit lying on the ground starts firing his gun.

    The Army is paying Iraqi immigrants $220 day, plus board, just to be themselves. [. . .]Some 250 Arabs and Kurds, including about 50 from metropolitan Detroit, occupy the 18 ethnically, politically and religiously diverse villages that comprise the fictitious province of Talatha, located at the Joint Readiness Training Center at Fort Polk, La. "When we come here, we act like we are back home," Amir Saymari, 30, of Dearborn, Mich., said. "We teach them about the culture, and we teach them about the Iraqi people."

    Garrett slips up on joint training agreement Gerard McManus 10jul04 PETER Garrett has set himself on a collision course with his leader, Mark Latham, after criticising the joint training agreement with the US. Mr Garrett's anti-US policy blunder came as Prime Minister John Howard accused Mr Latham of being super-sensitive over the Bush Administration's comments on Australia's involvement in Iraq. Mr Garrett, who ditched his opposition to US bases in Australia when he joined the Labor Party, said yesterday a joint training facility should not be "unilaterally announced" by the United States. The proposal needed to have a full and...

    It may surprise some that during this period of national emergency and the War on Terror: Army and Marine units can train in California’s Mojave Desert only during the daytime so as not to trample tortoises; or that inland training at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina is made almost impossible by a rare species of woodpecker; or Hawaii’s Makua Military Reservation was once shut down by a tree snail; or Navy Seal training is severely restricted on Coronado Island by the snowy plover. It might further be surprising to many that language in the 2003 Defense Appropriations Bill could take...
