Pentagon Concerned Russia Cultivating Sympathy Among US Troops

It's not weird at all.

I left the party the night the bombs fell on Iraq. It was total BS.

The Democrat party of today is full of radicals, and the Republican party is a dinosaur.

U.S. soldiers wait for a speech by U.S. President Donald Trump as he meets U.S. troops based in Osan Air Base,
South Korea, June 30, 2019.



Republicans in Congress - Nunes, Kennedy, Meadows, Jordan, Johnson, Paul are busy repeating Russian disinformation. Moscow Mitch McConnell still has not allowed a Senate vote on the House bipartisan-passed DETER Act.

US military personnel should wean themselves from the Fox News addiction.

Don't worry, our troops will do their job and kick the living **** out of the enemy, no matter who he is.

That being said, one would think that the hand wringing Leftist would want to avoid a hatred campaign among the troops because built in hatred and dehumanization of the enemy can lead to atrocities on the battlefield.
 
This thread is classic. Some of the stuff coming from the right belongs on the funny pages.
 
When Putin returned to the Russian presidency in 2012 Republicans began praising him as a strong leader, a decisive president who is able to enact his will and diktats before breakfast.

Republicans spent the next 3 years praising Putin the Action Man as a master strategist, a genius chess player, a grand thinker who was -- as we heard ad infinitum -- always playing chess while Obama played checkers. Fact is Putin never played chess against anyone he couldn't put in jail. Or have shot. Or poisoned.

Republicans, the vast majority of whom hate Europe, blamed the USA, Nato, EU and other European countries for threatening Russia when the situation was in fact that Russia was changing the borders of Europe by force (in Ukraine most prominently) for the first time since World War II.

Putin had left the Russian presidency after two terms to return to it in 2012. Putin the Soviet Russia KGB man returned in 2012 as Mr. Global & Orthodox Godly Conservative Fascist of the 21st Century after having developed the sinister persona during his time out of office. So the Right Sector Republicans, other Conservatives and certainly the Libertarian-Rightists threw in with Putin in his new ideology and persona that they adore.

These united Putin Fanboyz however stopped singing the praises of Putin once Donald Trump descended the escalator at Faulty Tower. The 21st Century Uniquely American Fascist Right went silent strategically as Trump took possession of the Putin ball to run with it in the campaign, to include collusion with Wikileaks and clandestine meetings by campaign staff with the Russian ambassador and other Russian intelligence operatives that the Trump campaign people denied and denied until the evidence was presented of it all.

Once the Putin-Trump Rowers took charge of the White House it's been, as Pelosi said to Trump in the WH during the famously loud meeting, "With you, all roads lead to Putin." We recall of course that Pelosi had put in something like 16 years as a member of the House Intelligence Committee.

So given an entire major political party in the USA has gone over to the Russian enemies of the United States, a massive national reconstruction will be needed once Trump is gone whether Trump vacates the office voluntarily or is vacated from it involuntarily. While it will be done Constitutionally, there will be no more Mr. Nice Guy as occurred with the original reconstruction that ended up being derailed by its defeated enemy and other opponents.

You still on the foreign power train? Mueller and his report were disgraced. There was no Russian election influence Hillary lost because she was a terrible candidate. And she may have another chance I hope.

You are the poster child for Russian influence. You do know none of that is true. Mueller found 100+ instances where the Trump campaign colluded with Russia and Trump himself welcomed Russian help. He is still colluding with Russia by propagating Russian propaganda in the Ukraine phone call. You are being brainwashed and don't even know it.

Russia has an economy and military that is 1/10th the size of ors. Hardly a "threat" unless people are swayed by FaceBook and Instagram and political debate rooms.

That Russia changed any votes in 2016 is the stupidest thing I ever heard of. They placed a few FB ads.

They quite possibly had a hand in changing enough Bernie supporters minds in the 3 Blue States that Trump won by a total of 80,000 votes. 126 million people were served content from Russia linked pages on Facebook. You can be sure that the polling data that Trump's campaign manager and convicted felon Manafort gave a Russian agent came if very handy for targeting those voters too.

Facebook estimates 126 million people were served content from Russia-linked pages

This is the insane. I have been close to many service members. I know they often do training and studies involving current affairs, intelligence, and classified information. How could our military allow these people to be so uniformed? It seems like the military leaders need to get it together, because the troops should especially be well informed on Russian activities.

This is unacceptable

What you are doing is speculating, assuming, guessing.It is like what the Dems are doing with Trump. They are inputting the worst motives on him and only because it was Biden are they going ballistic. If he had told Ukraine to investigate the doings of Newt Gingrich there wouldn't have been a whimper.

Society needs to stop with this nonsense of guessing and speculating without evidence.

Have you personally seen any of the alleged millions of Facebook posts? I never have. I am on Facebook daily and have been for years. We also need to stop believing people and companies just because they say something. Facebook happens to be a VERY liberal company just like Google and YouTube. Of course they are going to say Russia tried to help Trump I haven't seen the proof.

The Russians magically changed the thoughts of American soldiers and sailors in a single year?

The article is junk.

Go to any Navy base and ask a sailor who is the number one threat is to America outside of terrorism.

Go to any Marine camp and ask them.

How were these questions from the OP's "junk article poll" proposed to these families to begin with? You can ask the question in a number of ways to obtain different statistics.

It's funny watching Liberals nut about Russia being a threat, after Obama ordered them not to consider Russia to be a threat.

Russia has done significant geopolitical things since 2008. They are now obviously a threat, and could cause the next massive war in Europe.

Where are you on this issue?

They did far worse prior to 2008, but when Obama said they weren't a threat in 2012, the Left fell right in line.

GW gave Russia a lift because his focus was on the ME and the Arab states centered on Iraq. Yet all GW and the neocons found out is what the rest of us know already, ie, the ME is the most hopeless cause ever.

Republicans Action Man Vladimir Putin

Putin and his general staff saw this so when Putin returned to the Russian presidency in 2012 they moved against countries adjacent to Russia. The focus was of course on Ukraine. During all of this Republicans in the USA hailed Putin as a strong leader and the decisive Action Man. Polonium Putin became the Republicans guy who solved problems before breakfast. Putin became the Republicans guy period.

So post 2012 the US, EU, G-7, to include Nato member states imposed economic and political sanctions against Russia. Which stirred Michael Flynn to Moscow to see what he could do to help Putin out of the mess Vlad got himself into, to include Flynn sitting next to Putin at a banquet for a mere $40,000. This was after Obama busted Flynn out of the Army for his becoming a nutcase. Which brings us to Trump because I'd like to know how much Trump is raking in from Putin, Deutsche Bank and Putin's buddies in Moscow and Berlin, all of whom know important people in high places such as the U.S. Senate.

You just posted a link trying to argue service members are concerned for war, and now you are mocking the very idea that Russia is the most likely culprit to start a European war

I know the danger that Russia poses as far it's potential for real harm militarily, and so do our service active duty service members. Hence the potential threat.

But anyways, get back to us when Russia is invading Europe.

If Russia is such a immediate threat to the EU, then why are the spineless bastards buying their NG? The Crimea wasn't enough of a concern to them...............so big freaking whooop! :2wave:

Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Warned Russia: "We Will Beat You Harder Than You’ve Ever Been Beaten Before."




General Mark A. Milley, when he was Chief of Staff United States Army in 2016, spoke at the Dwight David Eisenhower Luncheon at the Association Of The United States Army which is a private organization of retired officers and senior enlisted personnel. (AUSA)

He issued a strong warning to potential threats like Russia, that the USA "Will stop you and we will beat you harder than you have ever been beaten before. Make no mistake about that." Which would also say serious woe be to any U.S. Army soldier or military personnel aligned with Russia. Or for anyone else in the matter.

Milley began his four year term as CJCS on October 1st in a joint service ceremony at Ft. Myer, Va., hosted by President Trump to include Secretary of Defense Mark Esper.


assistant-commandant-of-the-marine-corps-gen-joseph-f-dunford-right-hf0xhe.jpg

Milley succeeded the retiring Marine Gen. "Fighting Joe" Joseph Dunford who had been commandant of the Marine Corps prior to becoming CJCS. Milley and Dunford commanded jointly in Afghanistan where Milley was chief of Nato staff while Dunford was overall commander in-country. In the photo we see Gen. Dunford on his retirement after 42 years in the Corps, at the Washington DC Navy Yard next to the Marine Barracks.
