The traitor was sure easier to take down than Al Qaeda in Iraq.

After 9-11, we as a nation were supposed to report suspicious activity when we saw it. Yet when passengers on a plane in Minneapolis did so, the ‘Flying Imams’ were allowed to successfully sue because the Democrats killed the legislative provision that would have protected such whistle-blowers.

The PC that we now see is an outgrowth of just such decisions.

not only in this but in other ways over the last couple of decades. Ask some of the older veterans about some of the profound changes to operating procedures the Army went through since Bush 1 and stepped up more with Clinton. Old Army and New Army isn’t just about technology.

was one of the key proponents of it in his capacity as Attorney General of California. You can get a liberal’s head to explode fairly reliably though by telling them that Warren was a Republican and was appointed to the USSC by a Republican. Actually, both as AG and Governor of CA he was nominated by both the Republican and Democrat Parties.

by the (mostly white) upper- and political class in the West Coast, particularly on the part of “”, and that it was spurred on by racism and fear of the “yellow peril”. Though it may have legally fallen under the purview of the President’s war powers, it was still an egregious and wicked use of said powers. To paraphrase the Apostle Paul, though all is permissible under wartime powers, not all is good. (As an aside, I don’t think that a President’s powers should ever be so expansive, even during wartime — I don’t want for us to constantly be at war Eurasia, thank you very much.)

And here’s the rub. The majority of the PC nonsense and enforcement comes from the civilians working with/for/(against?) the military, not the active duty members themselves. One must ask, who is yanking Casey’s strings? Or is he truly just PC fodder?

I’ve said it before, the civilianizing of our military will be part of its downfall. The military needs to boot out the civilians and let the military deal with the military.

We should not be afraid to call a spade a spade.
The void created by a cowed and dull witted populace has permitted political correctness to flourish.

In Israel, certain of the ultra-Orthodox are exempted from the otherwise universal military service requirement, which is a source of societal tension. I’m not acquainted with the specifics. Practicing Hasidim would find it virtually impossible to serve in the military.

On the other hand, your question does pertain to less strict Orthodox Jews, and my understanding is that a fair number do serve in the U.S. military, which means that a level of accomodation would have had to be worked out.

Anyone here with specific knowledge is invited to correct or elaborate.

even though I have argued that it was arguably justifiable during a war and within his powers as Commander in chief, but a close call. In any event, I do think that many detained would have been entitled to civil damages, even if not entitled to Habeas Corpus until the cessation of hostilities.
