I just don’t understand the sexual fascination with kids barely or not even in their teens. They’re like puppies on just about every level.

Neither of you know what the f**k you’re talking about, probably based on a wealth of National Guard or Reserve experience or 10 minute active duty, no doubt.

I spent 20 years in Army intel after an initial enlistment in the infantry. I spent the first half of my career working very conventional assignments and the latter half supporting and/or deployed with Army and Navy Special Ops units. As a result, I’ve worked with or for almost every one of the 17 agencies in the Intel Community and ODNI and the most conservative people I know in the military or in government are in the intel business, but so are some of the most liberal - especially in the CIA’s Directorate of Analysis, many of whom are graduates of Ivy League schools.

Obviously, you’re welcome to your opinion, but you might want to accumulate some basis of experience and expertise for that opinion before you offer dumbass generalizations.

How interesting that you should say this while having virtually zero knowledge about the people you are attacking, just unfounded assumptions and suppositions, of which you have “no doubt”.

At least in my case you are completely wrong. We may have different views (and that’s fine) but I believe as veterans we are entitled to freely express our opinions. But we are not entitled to presume false things to make a convenient predicate for our arguments against other people.

Wow. I want my son out of the Army asap. It’s leadership just not compatible with the bill of rights and our Constitution.

No, Chris, you have a seat. Let's talk about those bad checks.

Going by that pic, I would assume he got a lot of rejection from women.

“...especially in the CIA’s Directorate of Analysis, many of whom are graduates of Ivy League schools.”

Off topic somewhat, but this fascination with hiring from specific ‘pedigree’ universities is really ill advised and potentially disastrous for these agencies. It absolutely does not ensure hiring ‘the best and brightest’, and as you point out it can lead to political inbreeding and group-think.

Consider the logic of your first assertion in the context of your original post.

Being a veteran doesn’t give you any in-depth insight into intelligence, anymore than being an Army veteran gives me insight into the Marines.

It can, and does. While John Brennan (whom I knew when he was Director of the CIA’s Counter Terrorism Center) is a product of that group think. Listen to his thoughts on jihad if you have any doubt. Brennan is one vile, hateful sonofabitch - believe me. His buddy Jim Clapper is just a dullard. He has an opinion on everything, but, like Joe Biden, he’s almost always wrong.

An Air Force ‘’ethics instructor’’ is arrested as a pedophile? Wow . There’s irony for you.

In my case (don’t know about the other guy) you are wrong. Again, you have no idea whatsoever about my background yet you leap to conclusions on the basis of completely unfounded assumptions.

Another example is the Redford character who was translator in the Intel office in the movie Three Days of the Condor...

Well said, especially the part about celebrating our nation’s history being somewhat melancholy. I seem to recall that the military was planning to accept avowed trannies-didn’t President Trump put a temporary halt to that? I say temporary, because as soon as a leftist is CIC again, it will go through if it hasn’t already. How will that work out, I wonder-hairy men in pantyhose and skirted uniforms. I can’t find it in me to laugh about it-the perversion is too maddening.

The Academy is on a roll lately.
Seems they get worse as time goes by.

Why not a court martial????

The case is under investigation. If they find reason for a court martial, you can be sure there will be one.
