Obama and Hagel have surrendered our military strength

Written by Allen West on February 28, 2014

This week our president and secretary of defense — correct that to manager of appeasement — surrendered the military strength of the United States. This week Obama and Hagel told the enemies of liberty and freedom that it is open season. These two mental leprechauns have obviously never read the book by Niccolo Machiavelli, “The Prince” nor Sun Tzu’s “Art of War”. I’m sure they’ve never read Clausewitz or Jomini. So these astute fellas unilaterally decide that even in the face of a more dangerous world, we shall shrink our military capacity.

All those progressive socialist experts say we don’t need a big military. We can use our technology. To that I will respond that the most highly technical weapon on the battlefield is the individual well-trained warrior. We have been down this road before in America, as history does indeed repeat itself for those who fail to learn from it.

After World War I we decimated our military strength — true to form others increased theirs — namely Germany and Japan. World War II came about because belligerent Nations took the initiative. Our first major combat forays in World War II were not stellar: Coral Sea, Corrigedor, and Kasserine Pass.

After World War II we decimated our forces to the delight of the Soviets and their proxy, North Korea. Our first foray into the ground combat environment of the Korean peninsula was the utter destruction of US Army Task Force Smith. Even General MacArthur’s Inchon operation had to be delayed because only five years after World War II our Pacific theater operations did no have enough Marines and amphibious assault landing craft — simply unbelievable.

We witnessed a reduction in forces (RIF) after Operation Desert Shield/Storm and saw troop deployments and commitments increase.

I've often wondered if West has a photographic memory.  I've heard him quote lots of stuff, including the Koran and the Hadith.  He has a masters in political science and a masters in War arts and science, political theory and military history.

He's also pretty sharp on economics too.

Can't start the war you need without at least one hand tied behind your back. The U.S.A. likes to spot it's opponents a head start. :mad:

Earlier Ollie North said that is was 1938 Czechoslovakia all over again, minus Neville Chamberlain.

And late 1940's.  Remember, the guys at Task Force Smith were dealing with an eviscerated military then as well.

I'll bet the ground pounders are so happy that they're going to replace the A-10 with the F-35.  :sarcasm:

****ing idiots.....replacing a proven platform with one that is untested and not as capable in the ground attack mission as the one it's replacing.
