Recruitment Problems Plague US Military

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

Traditionally a few Southern states have provided the backbone of America’s military.  But times have changed.  Today white Southern men don’t like black female sergeants in their face.  They don’t like homosexual sergeants in their face either.  They don’t like comments from non-military friends about their officers wearing high heels and skirts.  And they have heard enough from those forced out because of refusal to take the death vaccine to know that the officers no longer stand up for the troops.

A military headed by a black Secretary of Defense, a female Deputy Secretary of Defense, a black Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, a female Chief of Naval Operations, a female Secretary of the Army, a Hispanic Secretary of the Navy, and a black head of the US Air Force Academy comes across as a military hostile to “racist, misogynist heterosexual white males.”  These officials might all be competent, but they don’t come across to those in the ranks as warriors loyal to the troops. The black Secretary of Defense reinforced this impression when he announced that promotions for whites were on hold because there are too many white officers. In other words, the military is no longer merit-based. It is a racial and gender quota system.

Men with a temperament to be warriors want to be led by warriors, not by quota hires.  They want to feel that they are part of a fighting force led by officers proven in combat.  Their image of a military leader is George Patton or Robert E. Lee.

The demonization of white people that permeates American society has now infected the military.  Traditional military families now discourage sons from joining the US military.  If the pro-Israeli neoconservative warmongers remain in control of US foreign policy, the likely consequence will be that Washington will make a deal with immigrant-invaders of trading citizenship for military service.  This appears to be the road that the woke US military has us on. Just as Romans ended up ruled by their German mercenaries, Americans will be ruled by immigrant-invaders.

If you think for one second that low IQ stubby mestizo indians are an equivalent to Goths and axe weilding Saxons and will one day rule their descendants here, you are not sane. BRING IT ON, PEDRO!

GS, Yes. My 17 y/o nephew made a comment directed at me that people who …… are stupid. I retorted that people who join the military are stupid. He is going on some kind of orientation for the ARMY reserve within the next couple of weeks. He hated that I retorted and he left the room. Wouldn’t talk to me for the remainder of the weekend. He can dish but not take.

Joining the military after what everyone (should) know(s) now is like joining the mafia or the mexican drug cartels. You are joining a murderous, fully corrupt criminal organization run by woke amoral soulless killers that could care less about sacrificing you for their aims.
The military leadership, starting with the civilian leadership, are now the enemy of We The People. They prove that every day. The fact that southern boys and other smart young patriots are refusing to serve murderous criminals is a shining light of goodness. They will make excellent soldiers against the DC criminals in the coming 2nd revolution.

None. I had my fill but will ask him how he likes working for Fuck Joe Biden and how he likes someone diverse getting the promotion he probably earned.
I’m just a girl… Will also tell him about Smedley Butler. Already told him about bankster wars. He hates Jews. I have another nephew who is in The Marines but he loves it. Last effort will be about the invaders potentially be about the citizenship in exchange for the military service.

Fine. I never had boys or kids. A coworker did and told me to have them learn the hard way. Hi there you. Hope you don’t have a goy or birl or fag on the bottom bunk. They will love to see your bottom jump that letter every single night. Also, please sleep on your stomach with the thickest blanket on you’ll cover. Do not shift to your side or stomach. They will get a view. Oh and please take your shower at the earliest you can.

When you tell the # one demographic that joins the military he/she is a white supremist, racist, only successful due to privilege and you will be last to be promoted if ever because military wants more minorities, it should be obvious recruitment will drop precipitously. Add to this that many are leaving the service as soon as they can due to all the pc bs and you have our current understrength military. It is all part of the plan. Weaken the country from within weaken the military from within…..and so it goes.

Great Article by a true patriot. He made one mistake in putting in the throwaway line, “They may all be competent….”, in speaking of clowns like Lloyd Austin and the collection of poofters and time servers Biden has put in key military positions. Roberts knows perfectly well that they are all low IQ buffoons. The pathetic performance of the U.S. military in recent years needs no retelling. The heroic sacrifices and devotion to duty by those Americans still in the ranks can’t disguise the rancid, putrid smell drifting off the leadership.

Roberts, a Southerner like me, correctly points out that a very large percentage of servicemembers have traditionally been Southerners, joined by Midwest farm boys and cowboys from out West. That recruitment pool is drying up, rapidly. The attacks on our heritage and culture have snuffed out the urge to serve. Fathers and grandfathers are telling their kids to forget about enlisting. It is about time.

Democrats and RINO’s have actually suggested enlisting illegal into the armed forces. The swine (such as Dick Durbin) making these proposals, few of whom have ever served themselves, have no idea how foul this suggestion is. These people would be nothing but mercenaries, and drawn from the very scum of their counties of origin. The use of mercenaries against the American people was one of the most important charges brought against King George III by Thomas Jefferson. No self-respecting American would serve in the ranks with them.

At one of the darkest hours of the American War for Independence, George Washington learned of a planned British sneak attack on an American position. He is said to have order, “Put only Americans on guard tonight.” He knew all too well that while there were many loyal recent immigrants in the ranks, there were also plenty who would turn coat for pay.

Legal residents of the U.S. have always served. These are people who have clearly announced their intention to become part of the American family. Illegal aliens? No way.

Should these unwanted foreigners be allowed to wear our proud uniform, it will signal the true end of our republic. And it will be time to dust off those “No soldiers or sailors allowed” signs.

“President Joe Biden was not aware for days…”

🤣 🤣🤣 brandon does NOT even know when he is peeing/pooping himself. For Years!

“…that Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin was hospitalized, a source familiar with the matter told CNN.

National security adviser Jake Sullivan ultimately informed Biden late Thursday afternoon, soon after Sullivan himself learned that Austin had been hospitalized, that source said. Austin was admitted to the hospital on New Year’s Day due to complications from an elective surgery…”

ELECTIVE Surgery ???? Hmmmmm…

Anyone who joins the U.S. military today is either a fool or an idiot.

I know a 19 year old who joined the Marines and just came back from Basic Training. He’s already been brain-washed based on comments he made like “I can’t wait to go and fight the Ruskies.”

You know what, maybe a war with Russia would be a good thing. Stupid fucktards like that would be eliminated and all of the Demosheviks who populate Washington D.C. will be turned into radioactive dust.

Oh, I can imagine the people whining about this, but you know, sometimes if thy eye offends thee, you just need to pluck it out and carry on.

This appears to be their long range plan on rebuilding America’s police and military by using Illegals to fill the void that THEY CREATED.
Defunding the Police and forcing the Military to take the toxic shots, they’ve created an artificial need to staff the two most vital areas of the American system, but, their “Fix” seems awfully convenient using ILLEGALS to fill the gap in employment in areas where cops and Military will now “Legally” own guns and have the power to KILL US Citizens by people that have NEVER been vetted for national security and / or trustworthiness yet they will have the guns while trying every trick in the book to take the guns from the American people.
This smells VERY ROTTEN to me!

The Air Force is recruiting at my local dog park were I have never seen a military eligible young person. Older people, middle age people and younger people but old enough to have families. In months not one of their little tickets to contact them have been torn off. They have to be unbelievably hard up to think they would recruit anyone there.
