“And when Israel is attacked (and she will be) we call on the Iowa National Guard to bring forth their Resilience Training Instructors. You are out there.”
You greatly underestimate the potential of our National Guard to carry out missions. Really we are talking about most of the same people & equipment as is currently in the Federal Military.
So Yes! The Iowa & Nebraska National guard could carry out a counter attack, just the same people and equipment would were they employed directly in the Federal military.
I’m not going to tell you that the militia system is perfect and without its drawbacks. I’m sure you can find many in a somewhat less professional and decentralized force, but it is precisely those qualities that make that force more loyal to liberty and the freedom of the people.
Such a force demands that Washington act with the consent of the governed and that is a quality we most desperately need now and will much more desperately need in the future, should things continue to get worse.
Most of them are not Chrisitians. They care little for the Lord Jesus Christ of the Bible, or what that book says. Even if they say they are following Him, many of them post countless threads defending what Jorge Mario Bergoglio says than what Christ said.
Most Freepers today are not Ronald Reagan Republicans - they could care less what the military has done for them and what it is doing. Their "Support Our Troops!" car magnets have been thrown in the waste basket.
Many of them are rabidly anti-Govenment, except when it comes to their own Social Security and Medicaid - on that they will rip out your eyeballs if defend their entitlements like a crazed drug addict. Because most Freepers are old or aging, this group grows larger by the day.
A few care about Israel, the Bible, and Jesus, but not many.
