This “Marine” Is In The Wrong Line Of Work

I actually cannot find this particular tweet, but there are others very similar to it.

Actually, if you look at his political musings along with his constant criticism of his CiC, I wonder that the USMC let’s him stay active and doesn’t prosecute him under the UCMJ.

It should also be noted that he doesn’t believe in the oath of enlistment.  He’s a liar.

If he really is an active Marine, then the Corps has changed so drastically since my son got out that I don’t recognize it any more.

This is shameful.  Shameful to the USMC, that is.

UPDATE: David Codrea sends the link in question.

    Herschel, my youngest son is in the Corps right now and it is a disgrace. Toxic leadership, high suicide rates with no impact on leadership being held responsible, broken equipment, unrealistic training and a Commandant who is more concerned with political correctness and gutting any amphibious ability in the mission sets than anything else.

    On and on.

    He is closing on his ETS and has a world-class talent in both rifle and pistol that hasn’t been leveraged in any fashion by the USMC.

    He goes so far as to call the Corps an anarchist factory.

    As the Fort Hood massacre proved to any thinking human-being, SJS – “Sudden Jihad Syndrome” – exists within the ranks of the U.S. military and is a foregoing problem, albeit one about which the powers-that-be do not seem much concerned.

    Major Nidal Hasan, a practicing Sunni Muslim and a psychiatrist, had been touted by the new-and-inclusive U.S. Army as one of its rising stars prior to 2009, when he carried out the massacre in which he slew 14 individuals and wounded some 32 others.

    There had been ample signs of his radicalization, such as his growing participation on internet discussion boards and presence on jihadist websites, as well as his inclusion of the monogram “SoA” on the bottom of his army business cards, an abbreviation for how he saw himself – as a “soldier of Allah.” Hassan had also been in contact with Anwar an-Awlaki, the imam from Falls Church,Virginia, Dar al-Hijra mosque. But these were swept under the rug or dismissed by the army, whose leadership was eager to show that anyone could become a success in the new multi-cultural and diverse military.

    Nidal Hassan, being in a non-combatant MOS, did not receive much weapons or tactical training, but his fanatical zeal apparently made up for it, as he managed to inflict disproportionate casualties upon the personnel around him, before a civilian first-responder, police sergeant Mark Todd managed to take him down with five shots.

    In the aftermath of the incident, a great of scrutiny was given to army policy, which dictated that virtually none of the uniformed personnel in the area were armed. Hassan was paralyzed by the shots that hit him, and is now a paraplegic.

    On 23 August 2013, Hassan was convicted of all of the charges against him, and five days later, the military court sentenced him to death. At the present time, Hassan remains on death row, his sentence not yet having been carried out. Despite repeated requests by the survivors of the victims, the U.S. government refuses to classify the acts as terrorism, instead labeling them “workplace violence.” Lawsuits filed in 2011 and 2014 against the federal government by 160 victims have been placed on hold, where they remain today.

    @ Bill Buppert

    Tell your son, if he does not know it already, to exercise good situation awareness around the “cultural enrichers” – if he does not already do so. The term “green on blue” exists in the lexicon for a reason; attacks by seemingly friendly Muslims against U.S. and other coalition personnel have become endemic in places like Afghanistan, and non-Muslim service members stateside – as the Hassan atrocity and subsequent fiasco have proved – are not safe, either.

    It is germane to note that devout Muslims divide the world into two and only two spheres: Dar al-Islam, which means in Arabic “The House of Islam,” or “The House of Submission/Peace,” and Dar al-Harb, which means “The House of War.”
    Any member of the umma, a Muslim who is part of the worldwide community of believers, is a resident of Dar al-Islam. Non-Muslims, no matter where they reside, are said to be residents of Dar al-Harb, the “house of war.”

    It is also germane to note that Islam forbids the believer from holding any allegiance which conflicts or potentially conflicts with his duties as a Muslim. If his oath of service and his vows as a Muslim come into conflict, guess which win out in the end?

    Unfortunately, this Marine is in the right line of work. He is representative of the debasement and dismemberment of The Armed Forces and in its place the creation of a Foreign Legion of mercenaries.

    Muslim marine. 1+(-1)=0. Muslims are loyal to Allah. Period. To a muslim any other oaths are meaningless. Recall all the shootings at military bases. Muslims. This tweet is probably a piece of propaganda engineered by his (?muslim?) superiors. Under Dubya and Obama all references to Islamic terrorism was deleted from all government data bases. This was part of the plan to make the white race the #1 target.

    The New Modern Volunteer Military are mercs, loyal to the State not the USA. It is a hodgepodge of third world riff raff. Americans have quit joining an “army” that refuses to protect the country by putting an army on the Mexican border, while insisting that war with Russia is the answer to the worlds problems. This has forced recruiters to “expand their horizons.” The bonuses for warm bodies is a big incentive.

    The level of competence in the military has gotten so bad special forces troops from other countries are being hired to do the heavy lifting while the mercs go to sensitivity training classes to improve their cisgendered communications with the LGBTQ whatever “troopers”.

    “No race, no religion, no politics, just Americans (mercs). There is clarity and a physical purity in that. Today at home, in the United States, I miss the battlefield…” His home, along with thousands of others like him, is not in the United States. He is working for the Empire. If the only way he can be happy is with a group of hired killers (over two million people have died in the Middle East wars since George H. invaded Iraq) instead of home and hearth and family, then he should expatriate to a muslim country where they are more appreciative of his unique skills and attitude.

    Every time Trump uses the Bully Pulpit to announce that our military “is the finest in the world” I cringe. That being said, I do believe that our elite cadre such as Special Forces, Seals, Recon Marines, Rangers and a few others are still very competent and loyal to their oath. Seems to me the whole thing started going down the shitter with the emphasis on “Political Correctness” and allowing women to assume command positions. Now the military is a petri dish, a test bed for all of the evil, worthless ideas that some Perfumed Prince devises simply to further his/her career.

    Friendly reminder, not that anybody listens to me. Don’t miss the bigger picture here.

    The Left needs an army to pacify you. They already run the entire show, they just can’t enforce their will yet. They are working multiple paths simultaneously; Antifa, militarized Police, imported muz, and heavy recruiting by DoD in urban areas with full SJW brainwashing for enlisted.

    The Left is very very good at what it does. They are not stupid or incompetent at all. You must realize that one or more of these armies, probably all, will be used against you. We are already seeing it around the edges but don’t discount the one off’s now, and mis the larger plan of combining all this against you, or using these armies at different levels/phases/or types of Enforcement or duties and/or internment. The Left needs the dot mil on it’s side or at least neutral. They are much closer than you think in attaining this. Remember, all those new recruits went to public schools for 12 years first. And remember Muz patrol cars in NY? And police/DA selective enforcement now going on? Don’t miss these seemingly disparate data points.

    This is the hardest and final hurdle for almost everybody in the coming war. The normies don’t realize it yet and they may never make the leap and will remain on the wrong side of history forever. If you truly intend to be free, you may well have to, being a British subject for example; kill those redcoats, be they police or military.

    Dear FBI, this is not a threat, go round up Antifa who has been allowed to build an actual functioning C3I structure and use it to carry out violent attacks and property destruction while your pedophile bosses have you chasing ghosts and phantoms that pose no real threat.

    This comment is for entertainment purposes only and does not reflect on reality at all, nor is it the opinion of the owner of this webpage. I don’t believe a word of what I’ve stated here and neither should anybody else. It’s humor really, just for fun.

    @Fred: When the top military officers have already signaled that they may not follow the president’s commands, not illegal commands mind you, then we are well on the way to the Red Guards. At this point we cannot be certain that Trump is actually in charge of the military or the justice apparatus. Or, he may have been a Trojan Horse all along.

    From my dealings with the “normies” I don’t think most of them are ever going to get it. Their neighbors will be forced onto the train cars and they will be saying ” Oh it was just a few of the bad people, they won’t harm us.”

    It’s sad really. Otherwise good men, Christian men will choose a wholly wicked government apparatus simply because it is government. There are going to be a lot people who prayed their way into the camps never realizing that Holy God already answered their prayers by giving them the tools needed to fight tyranny. It will be men in uniform who come for the guns, come to load them onto railcars.

    Ned2 said: “Why do they allow muslims in the military?” Because they own the deep state and the deep state owns the military. This has been an ongoing process since Dubya (there are pics of a president of the USA holding hands and kissing Saudi Royal Princes at his ranch in Texas). 9/11 was a smokescreen to get the Patriot Act passed in the middle of the night in secret by Republicans to put a straight jacket on American citizens not terrorists. How courageous of them.

    The wars in the Middle East were staged to create a diversion. Supposedly to eradicate terrorism it gave the deep state the cover it needed to finance the terrorists. Do a search and you will find articles documenting the abandonment of equipment and the disappearance of tons of military supplys. During the Obama administration where do you think ISIS got all those Toyoda trucks for their gasoline runs from the refineries to bankroll. Carvana?

    And then there is the collateral damage. One million Christians in the Middle East killed without word from the Republican party or the “mainline” churchianity mob.

    In the battle of Hue in ’68 the Marines were outnumbered 10 to one. No artillary support, no air support, no tanks. They won. The military brass was already sissyfied by this time so it was no supprise. When the Royal Palace turned out to be a fortress that could cost the lives of thousands of Americans (where were the South Vietnamese) the women in charge puchased a pair and decided to commit the fire support that was needed all along. This was just a taste of things to come.

    You are the intended target. All the shootings at the military bases are just a warm up.

    Wake up and smell the cordite.

    Main reason I’d wanted to comment on the OP, was because of the pic of the cardboard boxed gun with the bigass scope on it. If I was the owner of that gun, I’d be ashamed to post the pic as me owning it.

    The encroachment of Islam into every nook and corner of our society was a done deal the moment the deep-state and the Sunni Arabs agreed to the petrodollar regime during the Nixon-Kissinger years of the 1970s. For those unfamiliar with the deal, whose consequences have been far-reaching, the basics are as follows:

    – Nixon-Kissinger, wanted to spend beyond their budget-constrained means, ended the last ties of the USD to gold – as this would allow them to start the printing presses.

    – Lacking gold to back the dollar, what would take its place?

    – The petrodollar substituted oil for gold, specifically by making the USD the sole currency in which OPEC would conduct business. Thereby, at one stroke of the pen, assuring that the USD would remain the international reserve currency and the basis of the world’s economy. Other nations, not having dollars, would have to convert their currencies into dollars somehow before buying Arab oil. The U.S., on the other hand, would not.

    – The petrodollar had the deep-salivating in anticipation for another reason: what has since become known as “petrodollar recycling,” i.e., the Arabs (and other international entities with lots of dollars and no place to put them) would funnel their USD into the Federal Reserve and central banking system. The big-shot bankers had dollar signs in their eyes.

    – Petrodollar recycling became the foundation upon which Washington, D.C. could pursue its dreams of empire. Specifically, the Arabs and other international creditors would buy U.S. Treasury bills and other instruments of debt to keep the U.S. government (deep-state) running. In return, fed.gov would do favors for them.

    – The petrodollar system spelled the end of our national sovereignty, especially vis-a-vis our foreign policy, as it gave the Arabs a hand on the tiller steering the ship of state. When the Saudi king called the President of the United States, his calls got put through, and when the sheikhs said “Jump!,” POTUS had to reply “How high?” – or else risk getting the plug pulled on the petrodollar system. Moreover, tit-for-tat – in return for all the financial largess from the Middle East, the U.S. and its armed forces pledged to protect the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from all threats, domestic or foreign.

    Anyone curious why the U.S. has been in so many wars in the Middle East, North Africa and SW Asia over the last thirty or so years has only to look at the petrodollar for the answer as to why.

    Ronald Reagan was an unpleasant surprise to the deep-state, who did not want him. The oligarchs did recover their composure enough to get one of their own, George H. Bush, onto the ticket as V.P., however. And when Reagan left town, Bush the elder took over.

    The Bush political dynasty, we now know, were as thick-as-thieves with the Arabs, thanks to their ties in the oil business.

    The ascendancy of Bill Clinton, however, took things to another level. Cultural Marxists and acolytes of Saul Alinsky, William Jefferson Clinton and his wife, Hillary Rodham Clinton, threw open the doors of the U.S. government and the White House to various Islamic interests. The Clintons, then as now, like money – and the Arabs have a lot of it. Bill and Hillary and their Democrat brethren were perfectly happy to sell access to the Sunnis in return for some of that vast oil wealth. And they did.

    The Clintons are responsible for the inclusion of imams in the chaplain corps of the U.S. Army and other branches of service. The first imam in the armed forces came in 1994. When the decision was made to have imams in the chaplain corps, an endorsing body had to be found, in the Islamic Society of North America, an organization with ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.

    The Ikhwan, as they are known in Egypt, are the ideological fountainhead of every Islamic terror/jihad group on earth, and arguably the most-influential pan-Islamic organization in the Muslim world.

    Major Stephen Coughlin (U.S. Army, ret.), formerly the top-subject matter expert on Islam in the U.S. Army, was for years the “go-to” for special ops personnel looking to get “red-pilled” about who/what they’d be facing overseas in places like Iraq and Afghanistan. However, in line with the purges being conducted by the Obama regime, Coughlin was accused of anti-Islamic bigotry and forced to retire from the army, despite years of exemplary fitness reports. He was forced out by pro-Muslim factions within the Dept. of State, DOD/Pentagon, and in the Washington foreign policy establishment at large.

    The Arabs have lots of well-paid sycophants on their payroll, and they used that network to throw Coughlin out. He landed on his feet at the Center for Security Policy, thanks to Frank Gaffney, but the larger issue – the degree of Islamic subversion of the federal government – remains as serious as ever.

    Those tempted to brush off the problem as exaggerated need only look at John Brennan, Obama’s hand-picked CIA head, and a convert to Islam while stationed in Saudi Arabia as a younger member of the agency. The same John Brennan who has been front-and-center of the deep-state effort to topple the Trump Presidency.

    Nor is the infiltration of the Muslim Brotherhood into every crevice and crack of the federal government the only problem; the communists and the Muslims have now allied themselves in the so-called “red-green alliance,” red being emblematic of the communists, and green the color of Islam. Apart, they are formidable foes – but together, they are even stronger and that much greater of a threat to traditional America and Americans.

    Re: “And then there is the collateral damage. One million Christians in the Middle East killed without word from the Republican party or the “mainline” churchianity mob.”

    Since the Sunni Arabs now control U.S. foreign policy, we as a nation no longer go to war to protect Christians under threat, as in times of old, but if Muslims are threatened, Big Green is told to saddle up and handle it, as in the Balkans in the 1990s, when the Clinton regime nearly trigger WWIII with Russia by bombing Serbia, a historically-Christian nation, when it was accused of committing atrocities against Muslims in Croatia, Bosnia, and elsewhere.

    It wasn’t all that long ago, a few years ago, that ISIS/IS jihadists were conducting mass-beheadings of Coptic Christians on film, and publishing them on their website, or those orgies of mass rape of nuns in the Middle East which went unremarked in the MSM and about which precisely nothing was done by the U.S. government.

    B. Hussein Obama claimed to be fighting ISIS, but that effort was largely pro-forma and rather a joke. In reality, behind the scenes, Obama’s government and deep-state were funneling arms to ISIS and other Sunni direct-action groups operating in the region of Syria. That’s the “real” secret which lies at the heart of the Benghazi affair and why the cover-up exists in the first place: to put (and it is hoped, keep, from their standpoint) the lid on exposure of their activities running arms from the late Colonel Qaddafy’s arms warehouses to Syria.

    Obama and his good pal, Recep Erdogan, the neo-Ottoman President of Turkey and an avowed Islamic supremacist, both worked very hard during those years to form the new Sunni caliphate they envisioned. They have not yet succeeded, but Erdogan is still on the job: He made the news recently with his announcement that the Hagia Sophia Museum will again be converted into a mosque. Gee, like we didn’t see that one coming from miles away!

    Georgiaboy61 is correct on every point. The Ambassador was running guns to Al-Qaeda in Libya before his demise. The DoS has always been the cover organization for all CIA “covert” activity in the ME (as opposed to clandestine activity which is dark to dark with no cover employed).

    You will note that all of the West’s alleged foes in the ME happen to be Shia (Syria, Yemen, Iran among others) and not Sunni. You will also note that the lion’s dhare of all attacks in the West are Sunni and not Shia.

    Saudi Arabia is ground zero for the Sunni Salafist [the calling between 1972 and 1977 that revived the Muslim Brotherhood] Wahabbist disease contagion hence the funding for foreign Muj in all the campaigns in Afghanistan since the 1970s.

    Much like the Germans introducing a communist bacillus with Lenin and his entourage in 1917 into Russia; the Busheviks were instrumental in buttressing Sunni Muslim ambition extraterritoriality into Europe and the West.

    Addendum to Georgiaboy61

    The Empire’s legions primary purpose in Afghanistan is to protect the poppy fields for Big Pharma in its ongoing campaign to drug and destroy working class AmeriKa.

    If Trump is being honest about pulling troops out he will be stymied at every step by the deep state. Just as the Pentagon refused to put troops on the Mexican border to protect the USA because it is not on the globalist agenda, they will keep troops in Afghanistan as long as the globalists want them there per their instructions from the deep state.

    Another example of the mussieization of the military was the attempted court martial by the Pentagon of an officer stationed in Afghanistan who stepped in and stopped several muslim men from the continued gang raping a young boy. This action by a Christian officer to stop an inhuman bestial attack was in violation of standing orders not to interfere in organized muslim religious activities.

    Hotels, restaurants, small businesses, lost. Jobs never coming back. Murder rates and vandalism all on the rise. A hate crime is being carried out by the state against law abiding citizens and all the “men” can do is cry in their beer instead of burning down city hall and running the mayor out of town on a rail.

    OMG, no tailgate parties, no 10ks, no marathon, no parades. Me, myself and I. Cry baby nation.

    These are the people that voted themselves into slavery. There will be no pushback from them. As the city disintegrates into chaos they will move to a red state and do the same thing all over again until every state becomes a soviet republic.
