callous and mad eccentric???

The great nobama continues his purge of warriors. Semper fi, General.

MG Fredricks of US Army had 8 purple hearts. He commanded 1st Special Service Brigade, as well as 45th Division and Military Assistance Group, Greece.

They made a movie about that first unit: The Devil’s Brigade

The citizen army continues to swell its ranks with experienced warriors who love this country.
And the professional army continues to accumulate a burden of politically correct REMF.

To all Christians in the military now.

become the enemy

"The second amendment to the US Constitution does not guarantee our right to bear arms,"

If that isn't the most stupid statement I've every read, I don't know what is!
The Second Amendment to the US Constitution DOES ~~not~~ GUARANTEE OUR RIGHT TO BEAR arms !
Read it again, and get a better education!

"A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state,
THE RIGHT of THE PEOPLE to keep AND BEAR ARMS, shall NOT be infringed."

Many of us will KILL to defend that RIGHT !
You got that?

"But I do care deeply about those 18- and 19-year-old Lance Corporals out on the frontlines.”

It's a shame General Mattis sullied his own reputation so badly by allowing the Haditha prosecution to railroad a lot of heroic young Marines off the battlefield and out of the Corps for political purposes. He had a chance to stop it.

I read about this earlier....thanks, Lancey.

He sure did, what goes around comes around.

Can't believe it will be a whole year on Friday since Frank’s trial ended.

It’s unconscionable as to what they put those Haditha Marines through!

From another article:

Report: Obama Ousting CENTCOM Chief Mattis
BY: Washington Free Beacon Staff
January 20, 2013 2:49 pm

“Word on the national security street is that General James Mattis is being given the bum’s rush out of his job as commander of Central Command, and is being told to vacate his office several months earlier than planned,” reports veteran national security correspondent Thomas E. Ricks.

More on this story here:

More like he is “being retired” by Mohamobama.

Bump!

""Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet."

"You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them."

The taint of UCI while Mattis was convening authority in the Haditha matter will never rub off.

I believe Stalin got rid of all his generals too.

A man should not be defined by one set of decisions. That wouldn’t be fair. However, Haditha looms large.

The price of that bowl of pottage was acceptance by the political elite within DoD, and it is that same elite that is responsible for Mattis’ demise, if some stories are believed.

Listening to McChrystal on TV with Hannity, and carefully considering his “all carefulness responses” in some instances, and his acknowledgement he voted for Obama in 2008, I’d say that McChrystal is another Wesley Clark. It really surprises me because his brother, a retired Chaplain and acquaintance during one tour of mine, was such a truly conservative Christian.

I wonder how much of his soul that Mattis had to sell, because he sold some of it over Haditha.

Completely agree with the both of you. Especially this:

I wonder how much of his soul that Mattis had to sell, because he sold some of it over Haditha.

Im not sure what your are implying by your below statement.

“To all Christians in the military now.
Get out NOW, or become the enemy!”

Obama, the ILLEGAL ALIEN IN CHIEF, has place people in charge of the military who despise the military, and are actively destroying the military.
Christians cannot and MUST NOT be against our Heavenly Father and His Son Jesus Christ.
In order to stay in the military, you must accept and follow your superiors orders, if they are lawful.
However most of Obama's are are NOT lawful, but most of the troops can't afford to fight an UNLAWFUL order.
Obama is now making it a weeding point that you must say you will pull the trigger against United States Citizens, in order to stay in the military.
A Christian cannot stay in the military under those conditions, and Obama knows it.

Read You might start the fight…but we sure will finish it .. By a Soldier, LT.
and A Time to Kill.
Also read Romans 1:16-32 and Leviticus 20:13.
If you don't begin to understand after that, you NEVER WILL!

Those who support homosexuals are against our Heavenly Father and His Son Jesus Christ.
These anti Christ people only bring destruction on us ALL.
I have NO sympathy for homosexuals!

Homosexuality is a "Mark" of disobedience.

It was given by our Heavenly Father

test us

Someone once asked

"Why are they

all so angry?"

The answer is in the definition of "REPROBATE".

rep·ro·bate

ˈre-prə-ˌbāt

1. Not enduring proof or trial; not of standard purity or fineness; disallowed; rejected.

Reprobate silver shall men call them, because the Lord hath rejected them.

Jer. 6

2. Abandoned in sin; lost to virtue or grace.

They profess that they know God, but in works deny him, being abominable and disobedient, and to every good work reprobate.

Titus 1

3. Abandoned to error, or in apostasy. 2Tim. 3.

And the reason"why" is given in the Bible.

God has a cure for homosexuals.

If you're not familiar with it, read the Posse Comitatus Act, Limits on federal use of the military for law enforcement.
Obama want the U.S. to de-arm and kill Americans who disagree with his dictatorship.
There are too many patriots who are experienced and retired military for there not to be a REAL Civil War when he tries to do this.
GET OUT NOW!!!

"No one will fully comprehend
the historical implications and strategy of fascist corporativism
except the true FASCIST manipulator
or the researcher
who is able to slash through the smoke screens
and disguises the fascists set up."

George Jackson, June 21, 1971

Why do you think Obama wants a UNIVERSAL CITIZEN SERVICE?
It's a way around

"federal military forces may not give law enforcement assistance to civil authorities without running afoul of The Posse Comitatus Act. However, Constitutional and statutory exceptions to this prohibition do exist."

UNIVERSAL CITIZEN SERVICE wouldn't fall under those laws, hence they could round up and kill United States Citizens.

Obama Asks Military Leaders If They Will “Fire On US Citizens” ["Litmus Test"]

From what I have gathered from your post... If I am a christian I should “get out” of the armed forces because it is the christian thing to do. And if I do not “get out” I will be judged a non-christian and therefor the enemy... I do not recall Christianity being mandatory in the the US constitution.

Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

“Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be
condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Luke 6:37

Your argument is circulus in demonstrando, or circular logic.

This is the last reply I have for you on this thread. I will not discuss your opinions any further. Thank you for taking time to read my original post.

I see you totally avoided the Posse Comitatus Act, and the UN-Constitutionality of using the US military against its own civilian citizens.
May God have mercy on your soul.

"“Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. Luke 6:37"

Remember:

"For the time is come that JUDGMENT MUST BEGIN at the house of God:
and if it first begin at us,
what shall the end be of them that obey NOT the gospel of God?"

Remember:

"Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing,
but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Ye shall know them by their fruits.
Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit;
but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit,
neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

NOT every one that saith unto me,
Lord, Lord, SHALL ENTER into the kingdom of heaven;
but HE THAT DOETH THE WILL OF MY FATHER which is in heaven.

Many will say to me in that day,
Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name?
and in thy name have cast out devils?
and in thy name done many wonderful works?
And then will I profess unto them,
I NEVER KNEW YOU: DEPART FROM ME, YE THAT WORK INIQUITY.
Therefore whosoever HEARETH these sayings of mine, and DOETH them,
I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house;
and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

And every one that HEARETH these sayings of mine, and DOETH THEM NOT,
shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house;
and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine:
For he taught them as one having authority,
and not as the scribes.

A wise man one said in a meeting I attended in person:

Sin is the breaking of God's law. Repenting of sin means being sorry you have broken God's law. If you are sorry, it means you do not intend breaking His law any further! Let's illustrate it this way:You live in a society which must be regulated according to various laws. There are federal, state, county and local laws which regulate practically every act and deed. Whether we are speaking here of federal laws, civil codes or simply traffic laws, the same principle applies. You are required in order to retain your freedom and your citizenship to obey the laws of our country. If you break some of them, it may only require a fine or a very small penalty, or even a warning, and you will be allowed to remain free. Breaking others can be far more serious. Grand theft, larceny, arson, robbery, burglary, auto theft or murder could get you thrown behind bars (not withstanding the terrible laxity of the courts today). Let's suppose you have done precisely this. Maybe, caught up in an emotional state with wrong companions, you perpetrate some act which is clearly against the law. Let's assume you are arrested and in due time brought to trial. But, during the trial, just as the judge has imposed upon you a terrific fine which you would never be able to pay— say, a million dollars— a completely unknown stranger, your benefactor, stands and says,"Your honor, I believe this man is seriously contrite. I believe he got caught up in the emotion of the moment and was under the influence of some evil companions. I feel he is a man of integrity and wishes truly to mend his ways and live a better life. "Therefore, I am willing to pay his fine myself so he can go free, and he doesn't need to pay this penalty!" Although it probably wouldn't happen in our society, it does illustrate the point. The judge (as a type of God the Father) would say to the benefactor (who is a type of Jesus Christ and His sacrifice for our own sins),"That will be fine! You may step up and pay the court $1 million and we will write on the court recordsthat the man who has been accused is free to go." Then the judge may look at you, the person who has been arrested, tried and sentenced, and say,"You are free to go. But don't ever get caught up in that kind of a situation again!" Do you see? You are required, as a citizen of a free country, to obey its laws, or else In the case of God's divine laws, you are required, whether you know about them or not (ignorance of the law is no excuse), whether you are a Christian, a professing Christian or whatever, to obey God's Ten Commandments. Though people by the millions freely break the Ten Commandments every single day, they are unknowingly coming under the penalty of the law, which is death! (Romans 6:23). When you repent, you are saying to God you are deeply sorry you have broken His laws. Jesus Christ of Nazareth as the counsel for the defense says to God, the Righteous Judge, that He believes in your profession of repentance and is willing to allow His own sacrifice to be applied in your case! Then, just as Jesus said to the woman taken in the very act of adultery, God will say the same thing to you,"Neither do I condemn thee; go and sin no more!" True repentance, then, meansbeing deeply sorry you have broken God's Ten Commandments, resolving through the power of God's Holy Spirit and the help of Jesus Christ as your daily High Priest and Intercessor, not to break the Ten Commandments henceforth.

Don't fall into Satan's deception of believing that God's Laws , The Ten Commandments are done away with.
