This should come as no surprise, but Dahr Jamail has no fuggin idea what he is talking about.<\/a> In a story about Victor Agosto, who Jonn has covered previously<\/a>, Dahr asserts this:<\/p>\n

On that day, Agosto was ordered to get his medical records in preparation to deploy to Afghanistan. He refused to do so. The Army threatened to take punitive measures, but Agosto wrote on the Counseling Statement, “I am not going to Afghanistan. I will not take part in SRP [Sealift Readiness Programme].” <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Dahr, you are possibly the worst reporter of all time. Seriously, you can’t even get rudimentary facts right. I mean, we always knew you were dishonest<\/a>, but now you’ve entered the ranks of truly incompetant. Ergo, I am here to endeavor to help you, since as another TAH Target Alum noted, we may call you all names, but we still demand you contact us first<\/a>, before you engage in yet another charlie foxtrot.<\/p>\n

So, the “Sealift Readiness Programme<\/a>” [sic] is <\/p>\n

A standby contractual agreement between Military Sealift Command and US ship operators for voluntary provision of private ships for defense use. Call-up of ships may be authorized by joint approval of the Secretary of Defense and the Secretary of Transportation.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Are you saying that Viktor has boats and the military needs them desperately? Perhaps he has a large innertube on which one might affix a slingshot, and then drag his ass behind Task Force 151 <\/a> to take out pirates? Or perhaps he has made a raft, a la Huck Fin, upon which we will stage our ready reaction forces off the coast of Okinawa? Or perhaps you merely relish the thought of Viktor as semen<\/del> a seaman?<\/p>\n

Memo to dipshit: SRP is Soldier Readiness Processing<\/a>, run at Ft. Hood out of building 42000. I mean, not that you would ever just rehash something told you without verifying, but there are no fewer than 8 phone numbers you could have called on the Ft Hood SRP Center to verify the info that Viktor was giving you. I love the fact that IVAW also threw up your article, and the screw up of SRP isn’t caught by anyone.<\/p>\n

Why anyone besides Michael Moore would buy into your lazy ass reporting is completely beyond me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
