"Stop the Army’s Dangerous Game."

"The service’s visions of light troops mounted on wheeled vehicles are setting up the Army — and the nation it serves — for humiliation and defeat."

The first paragraph describing what kind of enemy the Army is building for, one without Air Force, Air Defenses and Navies, sounds a lot like readiness for fighting here in the u.S...And buying equipment from a foreign nation sounds more like building a force that's more concerned with a global partnership than nationalistic concerns.

Holy New Coke, Batman!

The words "Pentomic Division" come to mind.

The Marxists have always wanted a weak United States and a weak United States military, they've sought nothing else for decades and now they have enough Marxists in government to make it happen, and enough Marxists in the media to cover it up and blame failures upon others, to lie in other words.

Go figure.

You can bet their general officer corps will go along with it since they are now hand picked by..... you guessed it, the Marxists.

Good, I hope it does weaken the US military. The American citizenry is far more at risk from that big hulking behemoth in DC than from anything in Russia or China.

The army needs more than just a cool new toy to replace the HMMWV. They need to come up with a set of small unit tactics to overcome current and future threats, then get a vehicle that enhances those tactics.

"...it is building a force for uncontested, permissive environments against weak peoples without armies, air forces, air defenses, or navies."

Maybe they just don't think we're serious.

But, if the military is placed in a position where they have to chose between killing civilians or disobeying illegal orders, it will fracture.... Then there WILL be an army, navy and Air Force.
