Obama and the US military. Comments welcome.

UPDATE:

Snopes has this to say about the story below. I remain certain that Obama is destroying the military.

The picture is of the five first line US nuclear carriers docked together in one place. Just
like Battleship Row, Pearl Harbor , December 7, 1941.

This picture was taken the February 2014 in Norfolk , Virginia. Obama ordered
5 nuclear carriers into harbor for “routine” (?) inspections. Heads of the Navy were flabbergasted by the directive but had to comply as it was a direct
order from their Commander-in-Chief.
The carriers were all pulled out from the MIDDLE EAST and the Afghanistan
support role leaving our land forces naked and exposed without the air support
needed to carry out their missions.!
NORFOLK, VA. (February 8, 2014). This is the first time since WWII that five
aircraft carriers were docked together. (These are all nuclear carriers).
USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69),
USS George H.W. Bush (CVN 77),
USS Enterprise (CVN 65),
USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75),
and USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72)
are all in port at Naval Station Norfolk , Va. , the world’s largest naval station.
Knowledgeable sources stated that this breached a long standing military
protocol in the Navy meant to avoid a massive enemy strike on major US forces.

This ordering of most of the Navy’s capitol ships into one place is
unprecedented since Pearl Harbor !

Since Barack Obama has been in the White House, high ranking
military officers have been removed from their positions at a rate
that is absolutely unprecedented. Things have gotten so bad
that a number of retired generals are publicly speaking out
about the ‘purge’ of the U.S. military that they believe is taking
place. As you will see below, dozens of highly decorated military
leaders have been dismissed from their positions over the
past few years. So why is this happening? What is going on right
now is absolutely crazy especially during a time of peace. Is there
a deliberate attempt to reshape the military and remove those
who don’t adhere to the proper ‘viewpoints’ ? Does someone
out there feel a need to get officers that won’t cooperate out
of the way?
Throughout world history, whatever comes next after a military
purge is never good. If this continues, what is the U.S. military
going to look like in a few years? Perhaps you are reading this and
you think that ‘purge’ is too strong a word for what is taking place. Well,
just consider the following quotes from some very highly
decorated retired officers:
-Retired Army Major General Paul Vallely:
The White House protects their own. That’s why they stalled
on the investigation into fast and furious, Benghazi and
Obamacare. He’s intentionally weakening and gutting our military,
Pentagon and reducing us as a superpower, and anyone in the
ranks who disagrees or speaks out is being purged.
-Retired Army Major General Patrick Brady: There is no doubt he
(Obama) is intent on emasculating the military and will fire anyone
who disagrees with him.
-Retired Army Lt. General William G. Jerry Boykin: Over the past three
years, it is unprecedented for the number of four-star generals to be
relieved of duty, and not necessarily relieved for cause.
-Retired Navy Captain Joseph John: I believe there are more than 137
officers who have been forced out or given bad evaluation reports
so they will never make Flag (officer), because of their failure to comply
to certain views.
A Pentagon official who asked to remain nameless because they were
not authorized to speak on the matter said even young officers, down
through the ranks have been told not to talk about Obama or the
politics of the White House. They are purging everyone and if you
want to keep your job just keep your mouth shut. Now this trend
appears to be accelerating.
General Vallely’s comment:
Coincidence? Every communist regime on the planet did this as
soon as they gained power. I am doing my part by sending this
email, I hope you will do the same.
Paul (General Paul Vallely)

14 Replies to “Obama and the US military. Comments welcome.”

  1. Ever since the Fort Hood incident I have wondered if the US Military would ever boil over and start openly protesting Barack Obama. They certainly have every reason to, but it is also the very last thing they would naturally want to do. The US military is, it would seem, another of those stars-and-stripey, John Waynish, Cadillac-with-steer-horns, overblown, Texasy, American things that he so obviously hates, and he doesn’t care who knows it…

    • From the beginning the US military has been ordered to stay out of politics, they are suppose to be loyal to the Constitution, Obama has set new lows for criminal and unconstitutional actions and the military is probably waiting to see if he will step down.

  2. Clearly, an image confirming such a ‘flabbergasting’ move was a visible message being sent by the ‘illegitimate-current-occupant-of-the-oval-office’ (icooo).
    At the facebook link, some of the comments:

    “explains the uptick in Chinese and Russian subs and spy ships spotted recently…”

    “… does anyone remember the Navy recruiting ads a few months back where the soundtrack sounded similar to the Oath of Service? They didn’t swear allegiance to the Constitution or lawful orders. …”

    The link to the ad:
    US NAVY TV Commercial video w/comment @video link:

    “…”I will obey the orders of those appointed over me”? What? What about “I will obey all lawful order…”To defend freedom and democracy around the world”? What? What about “To defend freedom and democracy for the US citizen?” Do we police the world? And do we force new governments onto those peoples who do not ask for it?”?

    Another commenter responds:

    “… up until 2010 the oath of enlistment read “i will obey the lawful orders of the men and women appointed above me.” now under executive order (the only way that could be changed i might add) the word lawful has been omitted.
    “To defend freedom and democracy around the world”? well there is a very small (sarcasm) problem there. The United States of America IS NOT NOW, NOR HAS IT EVER BEEN A DEMOCRACY. the founders were dead set against that form of government. As Ben Franklin said “Democracy is two wolves and a sheep deciding what is for dinner. In a Republic the sheep is protected by the rule of law and is well armed to protect their own interests.” the United States of America is a Republic. “i pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS.”
    “Do we police the world? And do we force new governments onto those peoples who do not ask for it?” The collectivists and globalists will say yes to both. what they forget is our own history. You can not push Jeffersonian Republicanism at the barrel of a gun. that is what the great progressive leader of the 20th century Mr. Mao did. It is not in line with the founding principles of the United States.
    the oath of enlistment is the same for every branch of the military. it does not differentiate between branches. in fact in most cases upon first enlistment, the oath is administered en mass with future members of all branches. Just to set the record straight, i was US Army Airborne from 1982 – 2004.?

  3. For 6 years Obama has acted unlawfully. He is truly the liar-in-chief of the century. Every time he opens his mouth he is lying. He is subverting the Constitution, his executive orders are dictatorial in nature, he is purging the military of those with opposing viewpoint, he lied about Fast and Furious and is protecting Eric Holder with “executive privilege”, he lied about Obamacare, he lied about Benghazi, he is lying about the IRS scandal, he caters to the Muslims of which he is one etc! He apologizes for the U.S. and bows to foreign leaders and does not believe that the United States of America is exceptional. He snubs the funeral of an American general and Margaret Thatcher but sends an envoy to attend the funeral of Michael Brown who has been elevated from thieving punk to sainthood!

    So everyone complains but no one is doing anything about it. Republicans gripe but there are no impeachment proceedings. Everyone is crying in their beer but no one is doing anything about the Obama scourge. Guilliani says Obama hates America and backs it up with true statements that cannot be refuted and he will not retract his statements for which I give Guilliani credit. But Obama keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny! Can anyone explain to me why we do not rise up and oust this scourge from the White House?

    As long as we “do nothing” then I say keep crying in your beer and shut the Hell up! I wonder what George Washington would do?

    • It took about 10 years for the American Revolution to start, during most of that time the people working for it were considered to be either nuts or criminals.

  4. Obama has spent the last six years destroying the US military and trying to create a force loyal to him and him alone, the vets in the US are upset but are hesitant to move without clear evidence that Obama is not going to step down and allow a new President to be sworn in on January 21, 2017. We will have to wait and see what is going to happen between then and now.

    This is the gravest danger the US has ever been in and I don’t know how things are going to turn out.

  5. Egypt’s President: It’s time for an Arab coalition against ISIS (CNN, Feb 23, 2015)
    http://edition.cnn.com/2015/02/23/middleeast/isis-crisis/index.html

    “As ISIS continues it murderous rampage in the Middle East, Egypt’s President said it’s time for more Arab countries to join forces against the terror group.

    “The need for a unified Arab force is growing and becoming more pressing every day,” Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi said in a televised speech Sunday.

    El-Sisi said Jordan and the United Arab Emirates have offered military help as Egypt amplifies its battle against ISIS in neighboring Libya.

    CNN military analyst Maj. Gen. James “Spider” Marks said “it’s about time” an Arab leader like el-Sisi made such a statement….”

  6. France seizes passports of six ‘Syria-bound’ citizens (BBC, Feb 23, 2015)
    http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-31587651

    “French authorities have for the first time confiscated the passports of six nationals who were allegedly planning to travel to Syria to join jihadists.

    Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said the intelligence services believed the men wanted to join the Islamic State (IS) militant group.

    The measure is part of new counter-terrorism laws adopted last November.

    Meanwhile, France has deployed an aircraft carrier off Bahrain to be used against Islamic State (IS) militants.

    Planes from the Charles de Gaulle carrier will be used against IS positions in Iraq, a spokesman for Defence Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said.

    The first Rafale fighter jet took off on Monday morning from the carrier as it sailed about 200km (120 miles) off the northern coast of Bahrain….”

  7. WHO calls for action over Mers virus (BBC, Feb 23, 2015)
    http://www.bbc.com/news/health-31585292

    “Too little is being done to control the spread of Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, which has infected 50 people in Saudi Arabia so far this month, the World Health Organization has warned.

    The rising number of cases in health-care facilities indicates current infection-control measures are not being implemented, it says.

    There have been at least 1,026 recorded infections and 376 deaths since 2012.

    Experts in the UK say the risk to the general population remains very low.

    Cases have been confirmed in the UK, Jordan, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, France, Germany, Italy, Tunisia, Egypt, and the US – usually after travel to Saudi Arabia.

    WHO assistant director general Dr Keiji Fukuda said: “When health workers are infected at work, this puts other health-care workers at risk but also can be a risk to all other patients who seek care for other health conditions.

    “Understanding where the breach in these measures is occurring and taking the steps needed to fully implement infection prevention and control measures can put an end to these nosocomial infections.”

    Dr Berhe Tekolathe, from the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization, said it was working to establish the root cause of the infection, which researchers believe crosses over to humans from animals – possibly camels.

    So far, person-to-person transmission has remained limited to clusters.

    The WHO warned people to avoid raw camel milk and urine and to ensure meat was properly cooked.”

  8. You can be sure they’re all being replaced with hard core leftists and affirmative action racists.
    People who won’t hesitate to kill those of us who believe in traditional American liberty
