Was General Greene a Victim of ‘Workplace Violence’ Too? There is a global Jihad, ignore it or not.

Major General Harold Greene, who was murdered by a jihadist in Afghanistan Tuesday, is the highest-ranking American officer since the Vietnam War, 44 years ago, to be killed in combat. Or at least one hopes that he will be accorded the full honors of a soldier killed in combat. With the Obama administration and its compliant Pentagon brass, you can never be sure.

The two-star general was killed, and 15 fellow allied soldiers wounded, not on the battlefield but in the seemingly secure confines of a military base — in this instance, a training school outside Kabul. The shooting spree was carried out not by honorable combatants wearing an enemy uniform but by a stealth terrorist dressed as a member of the allied force whose treachery enabled him to kill and maim.

That makes it eerily similar, although considerably less bloody, than the Fort Hood massacre. In that 2009 attack, 13 American soldiers were murdered, and dozens wounded. The assassin was Nidal Hasan, who was formally a commissioned U.S. Army officer, but in reality a stealth terrorist — the “Soldier of Allah” described on the business cards he carried inside his soldier-of-America camouflage.

At the moment they were killed and wounded, the Americans in Fort Hood were being processed for imminent deployment to Afghanistan. They were headed to fight in the same war in which General Greene was killed by our jihadist enemies — the same “Muslim brothers” Hasan admitted mass-murdering our troops to protect.

Hasan, who screamed “Allahu Akbar!” as he mowed our troops down, acted while in communication with, and under the influence of, Anwar al-Awlaki, a notorious al-Qaeda operative. By 2009, Awlaki was known to have held furtive meetings with two of the principal suicide-hijackers in the days before the 9/11 attacks.

yes indeed he was indeed, not on a battlefield, just on a tour of the military academy and an Afghani Moslem was suffering from mental illness and decided to go postal that day............./sarc

Now, why would Afghans be “resentful” about the presence of American forces whose mission, for the last decade, has increasingly shifted from promoting American national security to making a better life for Afghans? Why would not only soldiers but civilian contractors and foreign-aid workers — all there to build Afghan democracy and civil society — be “targets of violence”?

The answer is they are Infidels on Muslim soil and are not going to convert to Islam.- Tom

Talk about zips in the wire. President Ebola is doing nothing about it.

Same day as General Green was killed in action, some turban-bomb jihadi blew up the cousin of Kharzai.

May 25 Pres ISIS goes to Afghanistan, meets US commander Marine Corps General Dunfore at Baghram AFB, does not see Kharzai.

May 27 White House Email discloses name of Kabul based CIA station chief.

Aug 5, Major General Greene killed in jihadi green-on-blue shooting, then Turbaned bomber strikes Kharzai cousin in Kandahar city, on the Eid end of Ramadan feast day.

Fits right in with Seal Team 6 helicopter destruction assassinations, 6 Marine Corps Harrier fighter-jets and a C-130 destroyed on the ground at Camp Bastion.

Opsec is gone — who is directing these attacks?
