What America needs
Marine Lt. Colonel Stuart Scheller was relieved of duty because he spoke out about the lack of accountability for the deaths of 13 American service members and 169 Afghanistan citizens.
He is correct that there is not accountability for this screw-up. People are dead and countless others are recovering from their wounds, And, there is no responsibility for what happened.
Presidents Trump and Biden certainly screwed-up. The Taliban and ISIS-K, the two main terror groups, cannot be trusted and should have been monitored 24/7. Our military commanders should not have abandoned military facilities until Americans and those who supported our efforts were evacuated. The responsibility for this debacle are far and wide.
Colonel Scheller is to be commended. He is not disobeying an order or refusing to fight. He recognizes that in Afghanistan someone failed. Failures have to be dismissed and corrections made. It was never done after 9/11 or, even last year, when we had rioting in our streets which led to the ultimate disturbance, the attack on the Capitol of the United States.
If I were President of the United States, I would order Colonel Scheller to the Oval Office in the White House. I would hear him out. I would then call the Secretary of Defense into the room. I would look at Colonel Scheller and say: “You are no longer Colonel Scheller. You are now Lt. General Scheller.”
America needs men and women to stand up and do what is correct. America needs patriotic citizens and soldiers.
