I know something in this Tweet is wrong but I can’t put my finger on it.

quote:

Benghazi cost four American lives at a single compound, and Congress gave it ten investigations and two years of televised fury. Beirut in 1983 produced a commission within weeks, and Pearl Harbor had its inquiry inside eleven days. That is how a serious country treats a military disaster.

This week the Pentagon's own inspector general confirmed that Iran has damaged or destroyed hundreds of buildings at American bases in eight countries, along with dozens of aircraft. Neither Vietnam, Iraq nor Afghanistan ever saw the American footprint across a whole region hammered at once, and the public only learned of it because soldiers leaked photographs while Hegseth shrugged about the occasional "squirter."

General Caine warned before the first bomb fell that stockpiles and defences were not ready. Hegseth, a former television host, has since fired or blocked more than eighty generals and admirals, so the war is being run with the adults removed from the building.

When a Republican congressman filed eight articles of impeachment this week, the Speaker sent the House home early rather than allow a vote.

That’s some revisionist history if I’ve ever seen it.

Yeah, Benghazi was just the result of an offensive YouTube video.

Its a crock of shite thats what you cant pinpoint. Must be partisan to believe that propaganda... like Bunk thinking the poor sailors with midrats, and fishermen baws just fishing.

What difference at this point does it make?

Not sure if people realize this, but we're at war. Sometimes the enemy strikes us. That's how it goes.

Bad error by Johnson to let impeachment hang over Hegseth's head. Not because Hegseth has a chance of being removed, but because pieces such as this will get more attention.

They’ve done much, much more than “just” that to us over the past few decades. Perhaps even immeasurably more.

Where are the bodies or are they really adept at destroying things without killing anybody?
