Alright here's the deal on SOFREP. If you want a former E6 from SOF's take on foreign policy, go for it. But these guys don't have any better idea what's going on than the rest of us, they're not even in the game anymore, and when they were they were they were of the pipehitting variety. Not exactly strategy makers or even siting at that able. I was all about SOFREP when they stuck to their lane. Now .... not so much.

The book did a few things well

1 ISIS 101. Good rundown
2 ISIS key players
3 how to hurt ISIS and what a SF light inf operation should look like against them ( I'm not military but it made sense)
4 explaining mil ind complex and pentagon mil analyst program ass hattery

Fails
Their prescription for a Marshall plan for Middle East hearts and minds

Yes - his first American was born last week.    I held all 5 pounds of Bashir and told him he could run for president in 2050.  May be a couple of years off there - think the first election after he turns 35 is 2052.

My Iraqi buddy went to work as a linguist for the US Army in 2003 - I've seen all the recommendation letters his wife didn't burn.  @ some point he took a bullet in the leg, I think while he was working for the Marines.  He healed up, & went back to work.  I met him in 2011, in Baghdad.  His leg still hurts him, particularly since he works as a security guard 7 days a week.  When people start saying,"Kill them all," in reference to Arabs/Muslims, I get rather pissed, particularly when they've had the last 13 years to get a tank.

They're doing ok.  Not well, but they're keeping their heads above water.  The oldest boy is finally functional in English, but still struggling w/ math.  The middle one has few problems in school, but he likes to get his own way, of course.  It's neat to seem them grow up.  I just need to help him find a job so he doesn't have to work 7 days a week to pay the bills.  And I'd really like someone to take a look @ his leg to see if anything else could be done for it.

Colonization only works if you have a population base willing and able to displace or consolidate the original inhabitants.  Rhodesia, and South Africa have pretty much proven that western society no longer has the stomach for such endeavors.

He was running for the NRA board (think he still is).  He has a website, which he has made some major position changes to.  He was for mandated training to own firearms, mandatory background checks, all sorts of dumb shit like that.  He doubled down his derp in his responses to a lot of comments people made to him.  He's changed his bullet points on his website, but most people don't forget.

IIRC, he never even deployed as a SEAL (but I'm less sure on that).
