Our PC Pentagon

For years now, left-wing ideology has been infecting our Pentagon, the officer corps and our military academies. For example, in the middle of the latest showdown with Russia, the Pentagon had time to issue a statement declaring that "diversity, equity and inclusion are necessities in the U.S. military." 

Radical professors in university faculty lounges might be applauding, but I guarantee you that Vladimir Putin is laughing at us. 

Meanwhile, how are we doing in the warfighting department? As we know, there were extremely questionable decisions made in Afghanistan. The Taliban is back in control, so it's impossible to say we "won" that war, even though our troops won virtually every battle. And Iran now controls much of Iraq. 

A few years ago, we had a string of naval accidents that resulted in top officers losing their commands. Among other things, we discovered that naval academy graduates didn't know how to navigate ships without sophisticated technology that could be hacked or taken out in wartime. John Paul Jones would be horrified!

I was deeply disturbed to learn that in recent wargames between United States and communist China over Taiwan, we lose every time.  (Here and here.) Is it because communist China has had a major military build-up? Partly, yes. 

But it's also because our politically correct Pentagon is too busy teaching about "white rage" or fretting about climate change. Incredibly, it's spent 6 million manhours on this nonsense last year alone!

At our top war college today, future military officers were subjected to a lecture from a radical French professor. This guy thinks the way America wins the future is to give up capitalism and embrace socialism. 

The so-called "leaders" at the Pentagon who are pushing this junk are not worthy of the brave men and women they lead. No wonder our armed forces are struggling to meet recruiting goals under Joe Biden.
