No, it’s just that the letter this whole BS is based on is a bad counterfeit.

Do you really know anything about McMaster, do you know anything about the book “Dereliction of Duty.” Do you know anything about the Battle of 73 Easting” or are you just one of those “I’ve been here longer than you” loudmouths?

This is all BS. The letter is a bad forgery. No date, etc.

Etcetera?

Beside there being no date, you can't list why you think that this is "bad forgery". So you say, "etc".

I thought civilians have to go through OPM to get a clearance. I did not know you could just write some guy and get it.

Wrong typeface and type size. Wrong page spacing at top of letter. Wrong kerning.

You probably fell for Dan Rather’s phony anti-Bush letter too.

Since you are busy carrying water for McMaster, you got an excuse for Obama holdovers running lose in the WH and influencing Trump NSC policy? McMaster’s reported Anti-Israel bias? McMaster tip toeing around Obama’s Iran secret deals? Firing Trumpers? Etc., etc.

Our concern about McMaster is about way more than this letter, FRiend.

I point out an obvious forgery and I’m carrying his water?

I suggest you review a little about his real life. His writing “Dereliction of Duty.” His command at 73 Easting.

I suggest you real a little real history, and not the latest ‘net BS. The same click bait sites than pushed Pizzagate are now working this.

There is plenty or real problems in Deep State DC. McMaster is not one of them.

Your accusation is stupid. Without any evidence whatsoever, you think that I "probably" fell for the Rather evidence.

I didn't fall for Rather's phony letter and I have NOT come to any conclusion on this letter.

You on the other hand, based on no evidence whatsoever, believe that the letter is a fake.

You're right. That is bad.

That won't stop the Treehouse inhalers.

Sorry, if you are comfortable with an Israel hating arabist as NSC director I don’t believe I can help you. McMaster has plenty of “history” on Islam, Israel and the ME. Ignore it if you wish. FRegards.

As long as he keeps hating Israel, he’s the enemy of all good people.

This reminds me of Petraeus. He could walk on water around FR for years. People who served with him swore up and down he was a sold conservative and a Patriot. Now we know how that ended up. Same going on here with McMaster, IMO.

Okay, we get that you can’t stand Gateway Pundit. You seem to spam every GP thread/article posted.

Post links to your proof that this was forged, so we can take a look at that, rather than take your (biased) word.

It’s good to have a healthy skepticism, and unfortunate that so many people repeat talking points without knowing the facts. Not that they, or we, have direct access to the facts.

The internet, particularly that site, is full of typical unsubstantiated allegations.

Why is it that we climb all over P-MSNBC and the rest of the cabal for all their unnamed source stories, then are so quick to feverishly embrace even the slightest rumor about someone on our team.

McMaster an Arabist? Yes, he is very good with Arabs. The last time he met them in battle, the results were as follows:

The operation escalated into a full-out battle as Captain H. R. McMaster’s E Troop (call sign “Eagle”) maneuvered to the 70 Easting around 3:45 p.m. Heavy combat then spread to the south as I Troop of the Third Squadron closed the gap between the two squadrons and joined the fight. G Troop’s attack to the north as McMaster’s E Troop made contact with defending units farther east and combat there became intense around 4:45 p.m. Fighting continued into darkness as the Iraqi division commander reinforced the 18th Brigade with his 9th Armored Brigade in the G Troop zone.

At 4:10 p.m. Eagle Troop received fire from an Iraqi infantry position in a cluster of buildings at UTM PU 6801.[10]:443[15] Eagle Troop Abrams and Bradleys returned fire, silenced the Iraqi guns, took prisoners, and continued east with the two tank platoons leading. The 9 M1A1 tanks of Eagle Troop destroyed 28 Iraqi tanks, 16 personnel carriers and 30 trucks in 23 minutes with no American losses.

At about 4:20 Eagle crested a low rise and surprised an Iraqi tank company set up in a reverse slope defence on the 70 Easting. Captain McMaster, leading the attack, immediately engaged that position, destroying the first of the eight enemy tanks to his front. His two tank platoons finished the rest.

Three kilometers to the east McMaster could see T-72s in prepared positions. Continuing his attack past the 70 limit of advance, he fought his way through an infantry defensive position and on to high ground along the 74 Easting. There he encountered and destroyed another enemy tank unit of eighteen T-72s. In that action the Iraqis stood their ground and attempted to maneuver against the troop. This was the first determined defense the Regiment had encountered in its three days of operations. Still, the Iraqi troops had been surprised because of the inclement weather and were quickly destroyed by the better trained and better equipped American troops McMaster had sharpened to a bayonet point for the battle he knew would come.

After defeating that force, McMaster sent a scout platoon of two Bradleys north to regain contact with Troop G. In doing that the scout platoon encountered another Iraqi tank position of thirteen T-72s which they destroyed with TOW missiles.

McMaster’s boys destroyed 67 Republican Guard tanks, 100+ APCs and trucks, and killed approximately 700 top line Iraqi soldiers.

The American casualties? One loader dropped a spend 120mm cartridge case on his hand a broke his non-dominant finger.

PS, the body count above is good +/- 5%. I know because I helped count them.

Regarding his strategic thought process, read “Dereliction of Duty” It is a page turner, and a head turner too.

Before you decry a man, study him a bit.

This man is extraordinary.

Does this square with everyone? IIRC PDT has had some glowing things to say about him. In an age of fake news, I’m increasingly confused.

The incidents which give me pause are the firings of alleged anti-globalist, pro-Trump and pro-Bannon employees at the NSC. Why would McMaster be doint that? Or are the firings simply being framed misleadingly?

Other than those anecdotes, I know little of McMaster, except maybe hearing that he was too politically correct with regard to calling Islamic Extremism out by name, and also that he's a Globalist...

I see absolutely no basis for questioning Pence's loyalty to President Trump. Mike Pence was loyal to Donald Trump more than most others during some of Trump's darkest hours of the campaign.

McMaster isn't, therefore, "the same as Pence", IMHO...
