Friday Night Movie Recommendation: The Thin Red Line

The title is from my favorite poem by some strange coincidence. It starts a bit slowly but will take you on the emotional roller coaster that I have been on both literally and figuratively at least a few times too many. I just watched it for the first time a few days ago because someone … Continue reading Friday Night Movie Recommendation: The Thin Red Line →

To Whom It May Concern:

I was AfriCom's (J33) Current Ops desk officer for all of North Africa when Benghazi went down and my perspective of those first '13 hours' has never been told. Maddeningly Congress never asked me to testify. It seems as if the DeepState's coverup is achieved by making sure the truth never sees the light of … Continue reading To Whom It May Concern: →

The Harrowing of Hell

In the non-canonical Gospel of Nicodemus, during the 3 days between the Crucifuxion and the Resurrection, Jesus and John the Baptist go to Hell to release the souls of the blessèd, good people who couldn’t go to Heaven cuz they lived before Jesus’ birth. “ Lift up your heads, ye mighty gates! Behold, the King … Continue reading The Harrowing of Hell →

Winning the Peace: Final Chapter

The title is supposed to make you think about the goal of war not being the enemy laying down arms but in the end-state that we desire. In other words, what should peace look and feel like to you? I have posted, some have said ad nauseam, Winning the Peace OPs before but my previous … Continue reading Winning the Peace: Final Chapter →

Plan Mexico: Winning the Peace (Ch. 8)

The Pentagon is forever planning and procuring for the war that the military industrial complex wants to fight instead of the war that we’re actually fighting. The Pentagon dreams of fighting China and/or Russia with really dreamy dog fights and dom-submarine versus sub-submarine stalk and kills, but gets no joy from fighting the kinds of … Continue reading Plan Mexico: Winning the Peace (Ch. 8) →

Plan Mexico: Winning the Peace (Ch. 2)

Anyone who believes that we are winning the so called “Global War on Terrorism” has not endured an airport screening lately. Winning the peace would mean that you could board a plane as stress free as you did before 9-11. No, what we see and feel in today’s America is not what peace looks like. … Continue reading Plan Mexico: Winning the Peace (Ch. 2) →
