Ace Lyons

A retired USN Admiral weighs in on killing our way out of our problems in the Middle East.

 (via Right Wing Watch)

Interesting that this is one of the boneheads Trump listens to, even as he continues to look at David Patraeus (basically the "Father of" the Counterinsurgency Strategy this Lyons guy says is the wrong way to go).

 But then take a gander at this one from Tiger Beat On The Potomac (thanks, Charlie), aka: Politico, with the understanding that pimping confusion and volatility is Trump's stock-in-trade, and it gets a tiny bit easier to see that maintaining any kind of delicate balance anywhere in the world is in no way any kind of priority for Mr Unpredictable.

 In confusion there is profit.

 This isn't politics; it's a fucking robbery.
