At this stage I think our moral and political support is most important.

Basically, we need to persuade the chain of command and the politicians that there will be more trouble if they throw him to the wolves than if they don't. We are the people they need to placate, not the traitors in the MSM and France. Would they rather have the MSM on their neck or us?

They should understand that the MSM will be on their neck anyway. If this blows over, the MSM will just find something else to bash them with. If they get away with it, they'll be encouraged to try it again. Democrats, reporters, and Arabs are like yellow dogs. If you show any fear of them, they'll run in behind you and bite your ankles.

Then at least he should get a fair hearing.

Exactamundo....had the heat not been put to the feet of the chain of command and our politicans

Lt. Col Allen B West would be doing time in Leavenworth right now and his family living without his earned pension

The perfumed princes were all set to persecute him...

Excellent point. Easier said than done. Needs deliberate patience and perseverance to prosecute such a tactic. Count me in.
