Jewells of Thought

Why on earth does this White House hate our own military?

Every American can see it in the actions and inaction of the past 3 years.

Foreign Policy has never been Biden’s strong suit ever. Obama’s Former Department of Defense has even said I am paraphrasing that he has been wrong on every foreign policy issue over the past 4 decades. Starting with the unchallenged Chinese meeting where Secretary of State was actually being tongue lashed by his Chinese counterpart. Especially when their humans rights abuses are far more weightier than the United States.

Our men and women in uniform are being used and abused by this administration. DEI has been another bad reckoning imposed on our military taking away from our overall military readiness. With this administration the Middle East has become a powder keg ready to burst. We are somewhere near 142 strikes made against the U.S. in the Middle East. God help us when Americans actual die, but so far there are serious conditions perhaps only one step away from fatal wounds happening from these strikes. TBI’s, tramautic brain injuries, are not something we wish on our military men and women period. Too many of these are happening they need to stop.

Now after a routine warrant was being conducted, something we would never be briefed on because it’s the Navy Seals doing it. Two of them, one trying to help the other, fell into the water something that is so freaking rare for U.S. Navy Seals. We have no other recourse but to believe they are both dead. Biden has said absolutely nothing about this. It means nothing to him as we all remember him looking at his watch when the dead from Afghanistan came home. Parents of those fallen men and women saw him looking at his watch dumbfounded at the callus action.

This may not have been in battle, but they were serving their country. These men deserve to be mentioned, besides being looked for with everything that the military can do. No wonder we can’t get young people to enlist as we have been able to do so for many, many years. Of course it also doesn’t help when the DOD Secretary decides to go AWOL himself. How feckless and reckless are these people? Our military deserves a Commander in Chief that will have their back no matter what.

The only equal I can think of from the Bible was when King David counted his army. God’s wrath was fueled when David wanted to know how big the army was. God wanted to teach him a lesson about the fact that it was His army and that David’s sin was of pride. David lost 70,000 men because of his pride. Is knowing how great an army you have worth the life of your army, your people? Did the devil tempt David in this manner or did David himself make the decision for the census of the army?

Why is all of this happening now… is it similar… Biden’s pride? Or is this designed by others using him as a scapegoat?

This morning I was in Bloomington with my parents. My Dad had an eye appointment. I stayed out in the car to read and do some cross-stitch. I had to make a phone call about a medicine refill of mine too. While in the car all of a sudden I noticed about a half dozen young men and women troops dressed in camouflage. A warm breeze enveloped me when I saw this. I thought well maybe there’s still hope that some youngsters will want to serve as these college age troops obviously were doing. We must pray for our troops it’s not an easy decision right now for youngsters to make. We also need to pray for these Navy Seals that maybe hope is still around the corner for these men. If not their families need prayer.
