Surprising that Petraeus would stick his head up. I suspect he is virtue signaling for senile Joe's handlers to consider him for some juicy position in the Biden (spit) administration.

One comment struck me as interesting:

Once they get to removing the statues of the framers of the Constitution they will have succeeded in rationalizing the removal of any document written by the founders. This is why under Obama so much in the way of Fabrication and false hoods were written to attack Thomas Jefferson. His statues will now be targeted next.

Of course the Constitution is the true target of the cultural cleansing campaign. First statues then any pictorial representation and then documents.

It’s funny how peace officers are stigmatized but military generals are wise and should be listened to.

While we are disappearing Confederate monuments, lets disappear Arlington Cemetery since Arlington belonged to Robert E. Lee and slaves worked there.

Back under your rock, with you.
At least Petraeus got a good college position for his troubles. Most GOP who become politically punished find it hard getting a top job afterward. Dems, that is rarely the case.

And in an odd shift of perspective, I think we can now call him “BetrayUs”.

I am waiting for the push to remove the Confederate Monument at Arlington. It is both one of the largest and the only monument that features African Americans.

Since Betrayus feels that these past historical figures don’t represent “who we are”, he perhaps would support renaming military bases after George Floyd, Gentle Giant Michael Brown, Travon Martin, and others of their ilk. Might be great also to tear down all offensive monuments and erect new ones in honor of those (like the above individuals) who will truly raise the level of consciousness in the USA that our forefathers built./s

We do not live in a country to which Braxton Bragg, Henry L. Benning, or Robert E. Lee can serve as an inspiration

But Geroge Floyd can serve ?

Not only that, he got to meet and marry the commandant's daughter!! How much better could that be for his career. Then he screwed it up, temporarily, when he had some affairs.

“Writing in The Atlantic”.
This venue seems to be the media of choice for Never Trumper former senior military officers, and senior civilian Deep Staters in the various federal gov’t departments.
There is a reason for this. Their blather is not meant to be read by Americans. The Atlantic is a Venue where they can Virtue Signal that they are Woke Cucks.
And, thus ensure that their PC employers will be satisfied and not dump them from their cushy Six-Figure jobs.
They could care less about our country. They just want to ensure that they will continue to live a cushy life-style.

their end game is to “fundamentally transform this country”

And us being alive is in the way.
