Army Gen: Obama Is Destroying Military From Within
Downtrend ^ | OCTOBER 22, 2015 | ROBERT GEHL

Posted on 10/24/2015 10:06:38 AM PDT by xzins

President Obama is trying to destroy America’s military from within and it’s not an accident.

These are the words of Army Maj. Gen. Robert Dees.

Dees said it’s all part of a massive “social engineering” experiment and the end result will destroy the nation’s ability to defend itself.

“Not only are we losing physical readiness to fight, we have to fix the problem of moral readiness,” he said on a panel chaired by Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin (US Army-Ret.).

“I think the moral readiness of our forces is even more important than the physical readiness, which is very low,” Dees later told CNSNews.com. “The moral readiness is degraded by social experimentation within our military.

“In fact, social experimentation is improperly named because it’s not an experiment at all. It’s a top-driven mandate for social agendas that occurs by this administration within the military, which is a captive audience.

“It is not enhancing our readiness; it declines our readiness. We’re spending more time on some of these social engineering projects than we are on developing and maintaining readiness in our force.”

CNSNews.com asked Dees what message President Obama’s nomination of an openly gay secretary of the Army sends to members of the military, especially those who are Christians.

“Well, I think it’s a very loud statement by the administration. It’s not an accident. We respect all people and yet, it’s tantamount to lighting the White House in rainbow colors,” he replied.

The general added that “even though there’s some guidelines in place, there’s guerilla warfare within the military in a similar way that there’s guerilla warfare within our culture.

“People who would seek to strike religion from our land are working very aggressively out in the various parts of the military to strike down religious freedoms even if it’s against the existing regulations. They will press and push for whatever they can get away with.”

The inevitable result of such conflict is “a rash of poor leaders, and in many cases toxic leaders within the military,” Dees said. “Young people are not seeing selfless servants…the very best of our officers are the ones who leave first.”

“Faith in the foxhole is critically important,” the general added. “We in the military know that [the troops] don’t want to be politically correct, they want to be God correct.”

This would be a good topic in the debates. Separate the men from the girly boys.

I just love how happy some of you are that couldn't bother to vote in Romney with the great bammy...the guy who we don't know who he is, who and what he has sex with, "married" to the probable transgender, destroying business, destroying employment,destroying Christians, and enabling the worse animalistic cretins the world has ever seen, and the list is endless as you are well aware....

I suppose some people are just wanting the world to end, their children and grandchildren to go through a hell on earth just so you can proudly say you didn't vote for Romney....

shameful and sinful IMO.

Pick any area, any area ... Obama has managed to destroy, or highly impact:

Armed Services, GM, NASA, housing, medical insurance ... you name it.

What is shameful and sinful is your inability to see what is the true cause of Obama winning.

I remember Bob Dees. He was in my company (E-1) at West Point. If there ever was a straight arrow, it was Bob. Last I heard, he retired and runs a ministry now.

Had dinner last night with some grads whose fathers and grandfathers were Academy grads. Some of their kids are grads.

The admissions process now openly discriminates against white males. Females and minorities get first crack at appointments.

The civilian leadership now values things like getting transgenders into the ranks and women passing Ranger School over fighting wars.

This will turn out badly.

My dad was an Army Infantry Combat veteran in N. Africa,
through Italy and into Germany during WWII. - He stated
that homosexuals were mustered in the Army; but the men
he knew were not interested in either diddling or doing
anything except taking it to Hitler where he lived. Most
queers didn’t make it through basic; were not serious
enough or tough enough. They crapped out before basic
was over; not that anyone punished them, but any Army
man who felt targeted for diddling would not put up
with it.

And that end result sentiment appears to be Exactly what Obola and Clinton had planned all along.
Problem, Action, Result is a good way to look at this:

Problem: Russia, China and elite world power brokers see American supremacy obstructing their plans for realigning global power.

Action:
Define goals and actions to rebalance global power via implementing Soviet Communist Goals in the early 1960’s:
Corrupt the youth, destroy the family, demoralize and render ineffective the west’s military capabilities.

Results:
Where we are now.

Actors:
Global power elite, Clinton and Obama groomed by communists.
Neo-con’s like Bush I “New World Order” and Dubya may be guilty of collaboration by virtue of their domestic and geopolitical actions and outcomes. NAFTA, WTA, unchecked gov’t growth, strong support of Saudi Arabia whose Wahabist’s serve to spawn radical Islamic terror around the world. Bush’s start wars that project power, strain military & budget, their Democrat counterparts cut defense, enact policies that demoralize our troops.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
Both parties have participated in action’s that have ultimately resulted in country having greatly diminished military capability and moral authority.
People who have come to this cynically realization, would likely advise against military service too.
Demoralized citizens and soldiers were the end game goal.

My years on active duty, it was just handled quietly, and the next thing you know someone was discharged. I know the security clearance forms all contained questions about homosexuality, and I believe everyone had to fill one out either in reception or basic, certainly if applying for a security clearance. There might have been a direct question on other forms as well, but I distinctly remember the clearance forms.

If a troop self-identified, they were released from service. If they were found to have lied, then they were ushered out.

Pick is a gay person to run the army. I am sure that boost the morale among the 2% that are gay. Our president is a jerk off should be in jail or deported to wherever the *** he was really born
