Military cohesion requires that this never be an option!

The very idea that the question needs to be asked demonstrates that Society's over-arching desire for peace, and complete freedom of choice has condemned sanity, logic, and the health and cohesion of our nation as a whole!

There are a sufficient number of "checks & balances" in military leadership to believe confidently that the best decisions within the parameters of any given set of circumstances will be made without the fear of despotism.

The vast majority of military personnel are PFCs (Privates, First Class) and junior officers. Any individual may exercise free will to join the military. However, that is the last choice that this majority has any right to make with regard to the military's responsibilities of "waging war and waging peace!"

All peace-loving citizens are wise to continue urging military leaders at the highest levels to simply...LEAD!

The military is the absolute worst place for social experimentation. The military is NOT a democracy! Thank God!

The military is a benevolent dictatorship in which leaders must LEAD! Soldiers must FOLLOW!

Society must RESPECT the purpose of the military!

No Society will be Free for long without a strong defense. No defense will remain strong without decisive leadership. No leader will remain decisive without a clear understanding of the capabilities of men on both sides of any issue.

The greatest pleasure associated with Operation Desert Storm in early, 1991, was in seeing the Wisdom of military leadership at its finest! The engagement was considered a success not only due to superior resources, but also through the use of misinformation fed to the news media.

Wisdom honors military leadership through the necessity of wartime secrecy! The wisest man to ever live said, "The fool tells everything he knows!" Therefore, the media and social engineering are incompatible with the military and especially military intelligence.
