The perfect force you need to destroy Russia and China!

Tablet spoke with eight active and former service people for this article who come from some of the Army’s most prestigious units, as well as the Coast Guard. They paint a picture of a force that is divided and embittered and say that many of their compatriots resented being forced to take the shots against their will or even conscience in order to keep food on the table for their families. One soldier estimated that as many as 90% of his unit didn’t want to get the shots, and that many who caved now feel they should have held out for the mandate to be repealed.

 

“All of a sudden with the biodefense thing, Pfizer is like the third-largest defense contractor. The biotech pharmaceutical industry saw that they could wedge their way in and get a chunk of that fat DoD pipeline.”

 

One former officer in the Judge Advocate General’s Corps, the Army’s legal branch, said: “The fact that I am not subject to the UCMJ [Uniform Code of Military Justice], that there is no way that they can touch me, and yet I still don’t want to identify myself, should tell you something.”

 

“Vaccinated soldiers get COVID routinely. One sergeant has had COVID like five times, but he’s vaccinated and boosted, and each time he gets COVID, it’s just as bad, if not worse.”

 

Soldiers also agreed that nothing is likely to change under the military’s current leadership. Asked if there was any message he’d like to send to the Army’s top brass, one infantryman replied, “I honestly don’t think they would care.”

Between the pharmaceutical tyranny, the wokeness and the sabre-rattling against Russia and China, it's no wonder the military's recruitment numbers are in the toilet.

I confined myself to only quoting from the article initially, because I didn't trust myself to type out what I was thinking while reading this. It hits a bit different when it's all in one place as opposed to a casual remark from an acquaintance one day, a mini-rant from a friend a month later, some gallows humor from another friend a month after that. But I was brought up with a deep reverence for our military and almost an awe of the duty imposed by an officer's rank. The men under your command are supposed to be a sacred charge. They will stand up straight and walk into fire, because they trust you, because you gave the order, and because you have the moral right to spend their lives.

The betrayal, the sheer evil, the extent of the wickedness, perversity, and corruption in our military is hard to take.

There's an old story about a saint who saw a vision of hell. It was immediately obvious which of the damned had been faithless priests, because their anointed hands burned hotter than anything else.

I don't know what the equivalent would be for an officer, but there should be one.

It's one of the reasons I like Doug Macgregor so much, he gets it. In one of his interviews he was asked to talk about his career and he told how he was sent to take over a tank command and "whip it into shape". The first thing he did was meet with the men from the junior officers on down because they could always tell you where the problems were. Smart man.
