The Obama administration is advocating meekly for approval by Congress for a military strike on Syria. Between now and the vote for authorization, there are going to be a lot of voices for and against, but none would move our wills as much as those who will be asked to perform the strike, the U.S. Military.

That’s why this post, reportedly from a U.S. Naval Chief Petty Officer, on Facebook for a conservative talk show has more than 5,000 ‘shares’ even though it’s only been online for four hours.

No offense to the good Chief, et al, but STFU. We cannot have our military forces doing this. Obama has caused enough damage without having enlisted people breaking ranks with thier command structure. Enemies see this, not just us. As for Syria, well, I agree with my fellow Chief. I am retired, however, and he is not. If the order does come, we do not mutiny, we just do.

Obama’s consistant. A day does not go by when he is not creating chaos domestically and internationally. The U.S. military is a prima target he is destroying. With Egypt and Syria he’s raised the stakes. He’s supporting the Muslem Brotherhoos/Al Qaeda and toppling those with good relations with the U.S. He is he working for?

They didn’t join to be al-Qaeda’s navy and air force, but remaining on active duty after Monkey With A Grenade (MWAG) took power laid them open for all kinds of new, “interesting” uses. Not only are they the firepower for al-Qaeda, but a social laboratory for enforced acceptance of lurid sexual lifestyles.

We are living in those “interesting times” mentioned in that old Chinese curse.

Wouldn’t this pattern of ribbons on his uniform be very unique? Wouldn’t this identify him rather quickly?

I know little about this and would appreciate any comments from those that do.

If these are active duty personnel, they should not be doing this. Patriotic veterans, however, have every responsibility to speak out for those active duty ones that cannot. To send our armed forces on a mission to effectively abet al Qaeda, to strengthen those forces bent on wiping out Syrian Christendom, is sickening. And it hurts our national security.

While that first one is hiding his face, there is enough info showing to easily identify him, according to a friend in the Navy. He said he could easily figure out who it is in about an hour.

Obama has no moral authority to lead anything or anyone ,anywhere. No one likes his Muslim Brother organized crime gang, EXCEPT the American government (Democrats and republicans).

No sane person is going to follow Obama into war. Not only because it most likely has nefarious motivations full of his personal agenda, but because he is bent on destroying American, not building us up. WHAT good could come from anything he does, for a sane American?

He is calling the US military HIS military!?!?!?! WHO is going to sacrifice themselves so Obama can play golf?

The progressives have gotten their way, and we are a powerless country to do anything other than raise taxes on US citizens and kill our own people.

My hope is a whole bunch of much higher ranking military personel will do the same and refuse an illegal order.

But I’m afraid the congress is going to cover for him. And for McCain and Graham to say they can’t support a limited strike is just plain BS. Every war starts with the first strike. How the hell can anyone trust obama, and his puppet masters, whether it’s going to be limited or not?

And, by the way, obama will use congress as a cover no matter which way they vote. If they vote at all. I wouldn’t put it past Boner and Pelsosi to “deem” it passed.
