    Committing assets that are already in theater is one thing. Deploying a BN, much less BDE reserve, from home station is on another level.

    I heard the song come on with that post of his, but I really don't feel like doing that dance again. He's free to get it completely twisted, and those of us who know better can just shake our head.

    Looks like I may be posting from here for longer than planned, too. Prayers/good vibes/etc for all the guys that just got uprooted from home with zero notice, and all the rest of us sad sacks already in theater will forever be deeply appreciated.

    Current RUMINT is saying that they set a new Army-wide '0-60 time' record for an element that size leaving CONUS w/o prior notice or planning.

    No, Iran is definitely behind it. That isn't the Iraqi gov't trying to burn the US embassy down and killing US civilians, it's Iranian backed militia in Iraq, the ones the US hit with air strikes a few days ago. The Iraqi gov't only has power as long as the US military is there, which probably won't be much longer. They're playing the long game here and dragging their feet, like they always do. Trump has said many times that he doesn't want troops in Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria. It's going to be really hard to keep saying that during a campaign while at the same time you keep sending more troops into the ME.


    Mike Pompeo would make a really lousy poker player. His body language says he's lying.
    In the P-F basket of deplorables.

    Genuine Question: Do you have direct knowledge of the events of the attack on our consulate in Benghazi from primary sources?
