Yet Another Military Bashing Book Without Accountability ...

Today we live in a world lacking knowledge of history or time for perspective; it is a sound-bite culture where everyone wants to cash in without regard for accountability of facts or details. Presented below is a yet another book review that "details" all the horrendous mistakes made by the American military. As usual, most of the information comes from "unnamed" sources. Additionally, an unresolved conflict is tried, convicted, pronounced a horrendous failure, then pumped into the media which features it ad nauseum; and fed to the public which digests it as fact. Is there any wonder why the Administration cannot win this mess . . . what fools the Mullahs must view us as . . . we truly destroy our own.
