This is not an endorsement of Christine Fair, but she certainly doesn’t belong in this list. I think she just had some sort of personal mental breakdown lately, but she did good work before and far-left might have been the ones, who drove her to this breakdown by their constant bullying.

They bullied her because she was hawkish and didn’t want to coddle terrorists.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C._Christine_Fair

“She has served as a Senior Fellow at West Point’s Combating Terrorism Center, a Senior Resident Fellow at the Institute of Defense Studies and Analyses (New Delhi) and took a Reagan–Fascell Democracy Fellowship in the spring of 2017.”

“Fair has published several articles defending the use of drone strikes in Pakistan and has been critical of analyses by Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International and other humanitarian organizations, arguing that drone strikes are accurate, have reduced casualties, have targeted Taliban leadership and are popular among some Pakistanis.”

....... but she did good work before..........

As did Benedict Arnold. Bullying is a terrible thing. I don't see how our Servicemen/women with stood the bullying of the japs and Germans during World War 2. The Japs shouted,"Maline you die" and, "Blood for the Emperor" at them on the islands in the South Pacific. They attempted and sometimes succeeded in running their bayonets through them. They shot them with their guns. They bombed them with their airplanes. In the ETO the Germans treated our Servicemen in similar manner. How they withstood that and still won is one of the mysteries of the universe. When I was in school, our teachers taught us a saying, "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me". That was before the age of political correctness and the sissifying of America.
