Default The Edge

The Edge
by N.R. Filidei (June 24, 2005)

Quite unfortunately for America currently, The American People and especially America's Brave and Courageous Military being righteous, honorable of intent, and wanting to free all people oppressed by tyrannical and fanatical Muslim Dictators or just plain old murderous dictators worldwide,...doesn't automatically make US (both ways) necessarily The Winners of any conflicts.
Far from such, if history proves anything.

In point of fact, history has proven repeatedly that only people united in effort and resolve at killing or defeating their enemies anyway possible, and even more viciously than America's current fanatical Islamic Enemies do,...are more likely The Winners.
Sure, being tight-lipped or quite secretive of military tactics and military objectives (just the opposite of The American Norm),...also gives one: "The Edge" in mortal combat.

That's not just an opinion. That's a current sad reality and/or that America's quite absurd: "Openness" about military matters and self-imposed and unilaterally one-sided Rules of Engagement,...MOST ALWAYS & ONLY favor The Enemy. Such nonsense of broadcasting worldwide what American Troops will or will not do or AREN'T PERMITTED doing, in many cases gives the enemy: "The Edge",...like it (as an Arab) or not (as an American).

Sadder still for We Americans and especially The U.S. Military, is that such a united effort and resolve as fanatical and mass-murdering Islamic Assassins unarguably have, hasn't been displayed by America and The West since World War II.
Such being the very last time (to date) that The USA ever TOTALLY resolved any conflict abroad and/or achieved any TOTAL VICTORY anywhere.

Therefore, and since obviously about 60 years since: "America's Finest" or The U.S. Military and/or Defenders of Liberty and Freedom worldwide were last similarly permitted: "The Edge" before going into harm's way or into battle,...why not more sanely, sensibly and quite practically do so once again?

Hey,...THIS ONES FOR REAL!!! Our present fanatical enemies don't just want our surrender or to tyrannically rule us also. "They" want our bodies on slabs,...and as many infidel bodies of non-combattant men, women and children (babies also) that "They" can mass-murder.

So then, I would suggest that America set some quite different priorities, other than what are normally displayed daily by The Mainstream Press/Media. I believe that supporting America's Troops every which way possible against worldwide: "Insurgent Terrorists", should quite differently be given top priority INSTEAD.

Whereas, much less air time should be given to war underminers, troop demoralizers, foreigner-favorers and even foreign enemy encouragers, gratifyers and satisfyers and/or war protestors,...merely so The Democrats can once again: "Recapture The White House" AT ANY COST.

Despicable political oneupsmanship AT ANY COST currently and quite obviously paramount to all else and prevailing in America daily aside,...don't Our Brave and Courageous Troops deserve better than that, anyway?

Hell,...don't ALL AMERICANS deserve better than that? Are treasonable war underminings the very best: "We The People" can get for OUR Tax Dollars. Sorry Troops. But, surely seems so.

Damn-it-all. Who-the-hell-cares whether: "Hillary" runs in 2008? We can cringingly address that great problem and national decline confronting America in 2008. Let's deal with The War DECLARED ON US by low-life terrorists, on: "9/11",...which makes me wonder.

Wonder if the perpetually war undermining Dems and their quite perpetually supportive and echoing Mainstream Press,...actually even remember: "9/11"???

Daily watching and listening to such politics above all else types propagandize incessantly, certainly doesn't seem like neither type do. Nor, do such often acknowledge that: "9/11" actually ever happened,...except when used for blaming or; "Bashing" President Bush and Administration for; "9/11" and all else happening in The War on Terrorism,...instead of The Terrorists.

WOW(!),...what fools! Guess that by today's standards, even Benedict Arnold would make a great and highly respected U.S. Senator?

The End

Neil...

We have a saying around here when one of the family talks to much about things best left in the family. "Tell the world" The retired so and so's that may have a lot of experience in the field are just doing to much sharing of their experience when they imagine and conjecture and "Tell the world" things that for the security of our troops would best be left unsaid to the "world" at large. The same applies to those talking heads that blithely blither and "Tell the world" every detail of our power grids and throw up graphics on the screen to show exact locations. Hello?

You'll get no argument from me (no doubt from many other: "UN-Connected" or NOT politically bent or sane Americans also) about so foolishly: "Telling The World" (and DAILY at that) of our weaknesses, best possible targets of opportunity here and security needed or lacking for same, troop deployment and tactics abroad, and what or how America will respond or react (or not) to any attack on all alluded to.

Damn,...Arrow. This politically-correct warfare and/or foolish foreigner pandering or over-sensitivity towards foreigners ABOVE ALL OTHERS,...is gonna-get-us-all-killed.
Such being why I've often said that: "If still The 1st Pltn Scout Section Leader and serving in Iraq,...I can pretty-much guarantee that I would end up in: "Levinworth". It would be inevitable.

I so state, since I could never order my jeeps (at my time) and people to go patrolling or riding in likely Indian Territory, as easy targets of opportunity. Scouts are best effective and do their jobs best, when never seen by the enemy. Not an opinion. An absolutely serious and quite deadly fact.

Besides, and 24/7 for 3 years I was taught much better and a much safer way of drawing enemy fire from a suspected fixed position, and thus causing the enemy to expose themselves.

Such being called: "Reconnaisance by Fire" and/or (4) 30 cal. machineguns doing some SERIOUS target practice on the suspect area.

If no fire is returned by an enemy, then it was recommended sending-up one of the non-radio machinegun jeeps to check the position in question, since more expendable than a radio/machinegun jeep. Hey,...that's what that Recon. Co. FM Manual says to do. So don't blame me about possibly loosing a jeep and three people.

Hell, and given all the perpetual and currently enemy gratifying nonsense displayed over: "Gitmo", it's more than likely that anyone sensibly adhering to the aforementioned or CORRECT way of drawing enemy fire,...would suffer much more than just: "Levinworth".

Such practical and sensible leadership of 11 other Americans in either Afghanistan or Iraq, would be considered A Hanging Offense by most DNC or ACLU type Americans and/or big brother type Democrats/Socialists/Leftists posing as Liberals.

Probably even their quite supportive and quite echoing mainstream press/media,...would similarly demand my hanging?
Don't you think?

Thank you very much for the Thumbs-up. It's certainly appreciated.

After all, and given realities and that politics in large part are unfortunately debatted and discussed adnauseam, and politics determine most everything good or bad happening in or to America,...any compliments towards an inate common sense, logic and unwavering honesty, are truly appreciated.

Still Arrow, my compliments to you also for apparently being able to destinguish between: "Gospel", and so much of the quite purposefully undermining political bull abounding. Such isn't all that common lately.
Hopefully more do just that,...before too late?

Neil
