You have to remember that not only does the former "Chicken in Chief" loathe the military, he obviously and evidently loathes the country the the military is tasked to protecting. Afterall, one cannot seperate their feelings for the military AND their mission, right?

I don't really believe Clinton hates his country. He doesn't think like that. (Hillary, on the other hand.....) I think Bill just likes to hear himself speak, particularly when he can say things that sound thoughtful, sensitive and (best) nuanced. In this case, he is just spoon-feeding a soothing tonic to a European audience that's eager to pacify the swelling Islamic ranks within their own (dying) nations.
