The way the press is playing this you’d think General McChrystal had slapped a soldier with PTSD.
The thing about this bruhaha is that it’s all hearsay, what was reported was that aides to the General say he said x, y, and z. Not admissible in court. Not from the horses mouth. Hearsay. It’s actually kind of a betrayal/stupidity on the part of his staff to the general.
