Well, I think the Pentagon is only giving Obama the information that he wants to hear. Just ask General McCrystal what happens to those who have a view that runs counter to the daily narrative. Everyone remember the Afghanistan “surge”? The numbers the pentagon were running were a lot higher than the ones Obama’s team were floating. Years ago, the Pentagon and the CIA gave Obama an unbiased view of Afghanistan and were publicly ignored. Fast forward to today and the events on the ground reflect Obama’s failure. Now, career officers only tell Obama what he wants to hear. Facts have no place in the daily briefing.

As I recall there are 50 USCENTCOM analysts who opened a case with the IG about their intel reports being doctored and changed under pressure by General James Clapper, to make it look like the US was being effective against ISIS when it was not, and ISIS was growing.

Clapper is one of obama’s top facilitators.

Imagine a boss directing analysts to twist wartime intelligence to match a narrative rather than reality.
I guess this was intended to placate Congress and obscure what was really going on, our resupplying the butchers.
