Changing Obama’s ROEs that put our troops in danger should be Trump's job one on day one.

What Obama has done to our troops is a disgrace that should rise to the level of treason.

Oh goody! Here come the hand-wringing lawyers.

This is great news. We have lost men in combat because of the wretched ROE’s imposed on our military by this potus. Fact.

The simplified version of Obama’s rules of engagement: “Stand there and let the terrorists shoot at you, but never shoot back!”

How about “Kill ‘em all; let God sort ‘em out”?

Rules of engagement were stifling during the Bush admin, too.

The only relaxing of the rules,that I remember, was the mosques. They were being used by insurgants to hide and fire on our troopers and our men couldn’t blow them away. Finally that rule was changed..

But there was still a lawyer directing our men in every operation.

There are more problems than you can shake a stick at.

After Trump takes over there is going to be daily stream of uncovered corruption and malfeasance.

I know some folks at Ft Bragg that are going to finally get to work.

Rules of Engagement is something that can jail a soldier.

Don’t ask for people to defend the USA and threaten them with lawyers if you don’t do it right.

He’s on the right track with this one. Obama’s ROE are suicide for our troops. Imagine the insanity of being hobbled in combat by a bunch of idiot politicians and lawyers.

The new CIC needs to unleash our troops.
