On June 15, AP reported that "Gen. Stanley McChrystal, a four-star American general with a long history in special operations, took charge of US and NATO troops in Afghanistan (today), a change in command the Pentagon hopes will turn the tide in an increasingly violent eight-year war."

McChrystal is a hired gun, an assassin, a man known for committing war crime atrocities as head of the Pentagon's infamous Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) - established in 1980 and comprised of the Army's Delta Force and Navy Seals, de facto death squads writer Seymour Hersh described post-9/11 as

Geez, spare me from the Seymour Hersh "JSOC is assassins" stories.

Hersh is an idiot. JSOC isn't "promoted from within based on how many kills you have". What a load of crap.

And I forgot to add (fat fingers). McChrystal is a very political animal who always had his eyes on the "stars". That, coupled with the fact he's spent a lot of his time as a Batt Boy, should make for an interesting time.

Due to being at work I am unable to click on the whole story, but...this was done by the Associated Press? Does not seem like their kind of thing to pick up on. Which is to say, not a typical brainwashing piece.

J65 -- Loved your post! Wise words setting a crazy story straight. I've never noted your profile or posts before, but judging by some things you say, I wonder if we may have gone through some of the same phases in life, if you get my drift. And it is not every day that I see someone use the term "Batt Boy".

Thanks, Rainmaker.

Well, just for those that are reading this thread, "Batt Boy" is a term for a guy that's assigned to the Ranger Regiments. Some, probably most, don't know what that means.
