I find Hussein`s idea of his own personal cadres similar to Castro`s Committee for the Defense of the Revolution,basically a comrade to snitch on you on every street.

[Yorlik803]

More like the Nazi henchmen who had thier own private armies.
Can this guy get anymore spookier?

We need to be able to deploy teams that combine agricultural specialists and engineers and linguists and cultural specialists who are prepared to go into some of the most dangerous areas alongside our military.

Our military FReepers maybe can weigh in on whether they want to have to keep an eye on civilian "cultural specialists" at the same time the soldiers or marines are trying to defeat enemy combatants.

Obama, in these statements, has the makings of our very own American Mugabe.

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA - CHANGE YOU CAN COUNT ON, BUT DON'T WANT

THE AUDACITY OF TRUTH ABOUT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

[Jeff Head]

PING. More "meat" behind Obama's Civilian Security force statement.

How special, the infancy of our very own American Mugabe [/dripping saracsm on the "special" part]

All totalitarian regimes have there own armed forces seperate from the established military. Hitler had the gestapo. All Communists regimes had secret police. Obama’s force will serve the purpose of taking the freedoms from the American people and destroying democracy.

We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful,
just as strong, just as well funded.

[Thombo2]

“Civilian National Security Forces”?I get a vivid picture in my mind.....brown shirts and jackboots:(

[Wiseghy]

This looks more like Carter II, sort of Carter on steroids.

Roman soldiers found at Pompei had construction tools on their backs. This is because the Army was used by the Romans for many civil construction projects.

Liberals have often imagined the armed forces as retasked to civil and foriegn relief missions. This would be combined with new resources dedicated to new, purely civilian agencies.

American leadership would take the form of international development. The idea is that this would generate so much good will, that we would have more power and international esteem than ever.

Carter and even Clinton learned the hard way that this “carrot only” diplomacy not only does not work, it can be disasterous in the extreme.

Hmmm, I seem to recall that State Dept employees were very upset that they may be assigned to work in Iraq...for civilian work. Guess, Mr. Obama believes that he will sooooo inspire these people that they will be willing to put themselves in harm’s way, as our brave military does.

Obama’s description of his ‘civilian security force’ brings to mind a very scary time in history.....

Careful,.. you’re castigating http://www.mnf-iraq.com/ in that generalization

We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded."

Uh Barry, you mean like these guys?

The Waffen SS.
Uncle Adolf's "civilian national security force" that was "just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded" as the German Wehrmacht (Army).

Plus those Black Dress Uniforms were real chick magnets. When they marched babes fainted as they Goose-Stepped on by.

[usmcobra]

Oddly enough The Cuban version wears Obama's colors, instead of red.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&>

Anyone have any idea how many linguist and cultural specialists will be required to cover the many units that might be deployed to the many hot spots of the world?
