These “Rules of engagement” are on only one of your sources, the Wordpress blog, and even there these “rules” are not sourced, or even explicitly claimed to be “official.”

If these actually ARE the official ROE for all troops, they are an abomination. If I am going to get upset about ROEs, It must be about what the real, official, ROE; not something dreamed up by some blogger. It would have been better for you to have published nothing, than to publish something spurious.

Does anybody have a fully sourced, official set of the ROE?

I posted two news articles. The image of ROE’s is saying what the news has reported.

But what you missed was the blogs/NYPost et al are posting off of the 60 minutes interview.

I don’t think this is being made up but you are wishful thinking if you think will see this on CNN et al.

It is like anything else re: Obama. If it is critical of him the MSM won’t report it.

I spoke directly with someone within the military, the ROE’s are real but just like booter stress cards they are being ignored. Now if they would send the troops funding instead of worrying about blubber Teddy getting a building with his name on it. Or even a seasoned CIC would be nice.
