And since we know that Gordon reads TAH, we can rest assured that we&#8217;re taking well-aimed shots at him. Take his latest at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.veteranstoday.com\/2010\/08\/04\/gordon-duff-war-in-afghanistan-begin-lost-by-kingdom-crusader-islamophobes\/\">Veterans Today<\/a>. It begins with these words and generally slides downhill from there;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>When former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld assigned General Boykin the task of \u201cChristianizing\u201d the US Army, even if every hard hitting, foul mouthed war fighter had to be \u201ccashiered\u201d the task was taken to heart.  Boykin\u2019s efforts to infiltrate every level of the officer corps with Christian Zionists, notwithstanding they may be the worst leaders any military service has ever seen in wartime, was a tremendous success. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yes, everyone with a single brain cell left knows that the Right is intent on firing everyone in the military who says cuss words. Right? It only makes complete sense. Yup, everyone must swear their complete allegiance to Jesus Christ and His Father &#8211; and the existence of Israel. It&#8217;s right there in the oath of enlistment for anyone to see. Right?<\/p>\n<p>if Gordon had more than 18 months of service in the USMC, he might be able to speak more intelligently to the subject of religion in the military. In fact, I wonder what he thinks about those officers with whom he served as a TOC rat. Does he think they could be influenced by such a useless plot to build an Army of God within the US Army? I know my leaders were always more interested in the outcome of a battle or an exercise than they were about salvation of my soul &#8211; but maybe that was just me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We only bing the sage words of Gordon Duff here because of the entertainment value &#8211; &hellip; <a title=\"Chasing neocon ghosts at Vets Today\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=20020\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Chasing neocon ghosts at Vets Today<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[84,30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20020","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-military-issues","category-phony-soldiers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20020","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=20020"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20020\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=20020"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=20020"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=20020"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
