KABUL, Afghanistan, Aug. 24 (UPI) -- Throughout my career I have been known to walk that fine line between good taste and unemployment. I see no reason to change that now.
Consider the following therapeutic.
I have been assigned as a staff officer to a headquarters in Afghanistan for about two months. During that time, I have not done anything productive. Fortunately little of substance is really done here, but that is a task we do well.
We are part of the operational arm of the International Security Assistance Force commanded by U.S. Army Gen. David Petraeus. It is composed of military representatives from all the NATO countries, several of which I cannot pronounce.
Officially, IJC was founded in late 2009 to coordinate operations among all the regional commands in Afghanistan. More likely it was founded to provide some general a three-star command. Starting with a small group of dedicated and intelligent officers, IJC has successfully grown into a stove-piped and bloated organization, top-heavy in rank. Around here you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a colonel.

Lord Zero loves it. That's why he had to fire McChrystal. McChrystal is 1000 times a man that Lord Zero wishes he could be.
His message, try not to hurt any of the good Muslim people, civilians and terrorists alike. Make sure you come across gunfire first, then, if certain, you may open fire in return. :mental: :mental:

I think that guy was at most a MAJ (And more likely company grade). This is some other guy. True as it may be, it's a huge breach of the officer ethic to start very-publicly sliming your own current organization.
