Marines were ordered to disarm

Via avordvet

 

The commandant of the Marine Corps told lawmakers that Marines who disarmed before departing Sanaa, Yemen during an embassy evacuation last month did so on the orders of U.S. Central Command and State Department officials.

Gen. Joseph Dunford fielded hard-edged questions on the mission Tuesday morning from Rep. John Kline, R-Minn., during a hearing before the House Armed Services Committee. Kline, a retired Marine officer, is the author of a letter to the State and Defense departments demanding detailed answers about a controversial order to Marines to destroy their weapons and depart the country unarmed.

      I doubt that will happen anytime in the near future unfortunately.

    Those questions will go unanswered. Obama knows that he is surrounded by a shield within a force field and will never be touched.

    Can someone explain to me how this doesn't fall into the category of an illegal order? Describing this as a "controversial" order once again obfuscates the critical issue here. An order came down from upon High that directly put our Marines in harms' way and prevented them from the most basic right of self defense. Has our military been totally purged of the Terry Lakins?

      I doubt it and hope that enough will wake up.

    You have probably seen this image a few times. Just thought it relevant regarding
    the subject. When is too far, too far.

    General Dumbass. Another dishonorable pension chaser? I wonder if he'll be so quick to disarm against the American citizen, or if he'll be one of the traitors the people will have to hang and then ship his family off to Yemen?
