3 down, how many more to go?
Probably refused to fire on Americans...
Mattis was the last of our fighting generals.
So all we have left is political officers (aka Timm Curry in the Hunt for Red October).
Wow, he reached the rank of general with out learning you dont challenge Democrats with tough questions.
That was my very first thought.
“A particular point of disagreement was what to do about mischief Iran is exporting to other countries.”
“Mischief”... Is that what we are calling Iran’s hand in terrorism these days?
Go figure....uneducated, biased and naive Obama Administration civilians get pissed because he pushed them to actually work and work out [gasp] options!
Chess is apparently beyond the capabilities of the administration.
If you don’t bow down and worship the boss, you’re out.

That is the new litmus test we're told.
Little Barry is such a wussie!
Always seeking respect but never giving any.
I can just hear Obama, "Fire him, I've got a tee-time in 20."
Me three.
looks like job opening for another boot licker
What exactly is Obama's view of Iran? As a matter of fact can anyone define America's policy regarding Iran at any time since 1981? We sold them weapons for hostages, armed Saddam Hussein so he could slaughter them, buy their oil (oil for food scam), sell them technology (through third party countries), threaten them, betray the people of Iran when they try to rise up, promise to negotiate, play footsie in the UN, give them a Predator drone and get really serious with more sanctions. I don't know how anyone could disagree about Iran since no one has a position on Iran.
No, it would be “I’ve got a tee time in twenuh.”
“...fired..., without even calling the general to let him know he was being replaced.”
I’d say that was dishonorable, contrary to good order and discipline, and undermines cohesion.
“...he pushed the civilians so hard on considering the second- and third-order consequences of military action against Iran.”
In many cases, the consequences of action, military or not, do not receive enough attention. But that seems to be the liberal way of thinking.
