The article was wrong on Vietnam and Afghanistan those wars were easily won if politicians stayed out of the ROEs. Politicians lost those wars, the military didn’t.
We’re not fighting in Palestine or Ukraine so the guys a moron.
The state of the military now is a disaster and politicians are the cause of that as well along with woke military managers. We have few leaders.
The cost of equipment is another political/congressional cause as well. The acquisition process is broken but could easily be repaired but that process is the reason it take decades to get a piece of equipment to the troops.
As for the military it has one purpose and that is to kill the enemy and that is all it should ever train to do. The military is not a peace keeping force. Peace keeping is the result of the enemy knowing you will annihilate them if they’re stupid enough to try anything. Same things for shipping lanes staying open....try anything and your dead. Peace through superior fire power.
Weakness in any form needs to be eliminated in the ranks as well.
”Superior brains. Superior firepower. That’s all she wrote.”
