How
does one obtain promotion in a military career? By publicly or
privately criticizing the commander's decisions? By undermining the
commander's strategic and tactical plans? Just ask four star general
“light at end of the tunnel Westmoreland”. Or retired four star
general, the otherwise admirable gentleman, Colin Powell,
misrepresenting Iraqi WMD at the U.N.
Salute
and say “yes sir” is the winning modus.
Scenario:
Without a CIA finding and on the advice of NSA head, General
McMaster, Trump declares a national security issue on the Mexican
border. Trump then orders Secretary of defense General Mattis to
order his generals to deploy a brigade to the suspect area with
orders to shoot on sight any person caught illegally crossing into U.
S. territory.
The
hastily convened and selected rally crowd roars its approval. No one
risks promotion by saying “hell no”.
