Send in the Marines!!

Spoiler!

In order to transition to peace of course ... duh ... I bet you all thought I was going to say that the military command wanted to keep a marine in charge in case of a further escalation of the quiet lukewarm war in/with Pakistan that no-one is talking about? Gotcha! Booyakasha! :highly_amused:

Look at that cutesy face on General Joseph Dunford ... who could say no to that face? I smell a charm offensive on the horizon. Dunford will use his marine metrosexual charm to bamboozle the Afghan's into playing poodle. Bamboozle and poodle kinda rhyme ... I'm sure I coulda done more with that.

Dunford arrives,
with metrosexual drive,
the intent to bamboozle,
the Afghan's to play poodle.

Meh ... still got my day job.

If only there was a 50 page report floating about so that we can shush up congress and the press from babbling on about drone strikes, then we can get back to quietly sending hellfire down on any living thing in the Tribal lands, and/or any backstabbing Pakistani who gets in our way ... without bothering any of the good folk back home of course. The US (or UK) public don't need to be bothered by this negative stuff. Best they be kept in the dark. They shouldn't be thinking about nastiness like drone strikes and military escalation in Pakistan when they could be watching TV and dreaming about getting rich and famous like Jonah Hill (the fat kid from Superbad) and/or Seann William Scott (that's Seann with 2 n's who played Stifler from American Pie). Did anyone see Beyonce miming at the inauguration. I texted my BFF and was like "OMG!! GTFOH!! ... that is like the worst thing like EEEEEEVER!!". Damn I'm tired from drinking too much corn-syrup infused soft drinks ... I'm going for a nap.

The best part of that link was the last paragraph:

Since August, he has been studying the history of Afghanistan as well as the military operations since the war began in 2001, said the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the information.

Seriously, someone's head better roll for that leak.

How can you compete with high brow journalism like that? Talk about ground breaking investigative journalism. Multiple "officials" secretly revealed (simultaneously I wonder) a completely inane piece of filler information that only served to make General Dunlop look like a complete ass. I wonder if the officials were monozygotic twins ... you know the way twins are able to finish each others sentences ... maybe one twin said "he has been studying the history of Afghanistan", then the other said, "as well as the military operations", then they both said, "since the war began in 2001" ... then they broke into song and in perfect unison sang, "but that's off the record". Also, it would be cool if they were Japanese schoolgirl twin officials.

... it took two CNN journalists to weed out that unauthorized information ... you can be sure with their obvious high levels of journalistic integrity that the anonymous sources will never be compromised.

I dunno, seems like that info could be pretty dangerous if it got in the wrong hands.

The fact the General studies tactics and strategies of previous commanders of the battlefield he's responsible for?
How in the hell is that dangerous Mr Beck...LOL

Seriously ... imagine being interviewed for a job by this guy. That is one scary dead eyed expression. If I had a nuclear weapons program, this is the guy I'd put in charge of making sure the button was pressed when I ordered it.
