Default Obama's purge of top military brass...

Support him or not, anyone looking at this fairly has to find it mighty suspicious that obama has "fired" 9 Generals and Admirals now.Why? No real explanations aside from some vague accusations that sound like nothing more than arbitrary reasons to rid the military of those who do not support him.Dismissing the Admiral who refused to stand down when they gave the idiotic order not to defend Benghazi ? I hear North Korea's "leader" has been purging his military as well. Should be outrage over this, of course our half braindead population remains silent.Close national parks or have food stamps threatened, oh plenty of uproar.SMH

Force retiring generals is not a purge.


THIS is a purge

Do you have a link or a source for what you are claiming?

Do you need a link? the admiral who "refused to stand down" his airgroups for the relief of Benghazi was apparently at the time in the far east having a few problems with the discipline of his men on shore leave in the brothels of Thailand.
Now I know in flight refuelling has made great advances and jets can fly quite fast, but.....

Yes, and now we apparently need two. It's a poster's job to provide links for his claims.

That was almost clever the way he tried to show a comparison between Obama and KJU.

Smooth and subtle.

Was Hillary forced retired after Benghazi or did she go on her own volition?

At that level of government there is probably little difference and is hard to tell.

Google is your friend

it was in the redflagnews(the article is about 10 hours old)

http://www.redflagnews.com/headlines...-history-video

I'm not to blame. I have only found the article I can't say if it is true or not.

Judging by its completely unbiased attitude towards American politics, I'd take it with a truckload of salt.


EDIT: Suggest that this be rolled into the conspiracy theory thread.
