>Army chief responds to Trump criticism: War recommendation is ‘last resort’
The last resort, whenever and wherever we’re told to go to war. McConville’s attempted defense is pitifully thin.
Afghanistan? Can’t blame us for that. It had to be done. It was a v v v difficult mission, which is why we still need to be there. It was the last resort though.
Iraq? We made sure that was the last resort, what with all those WMDs.
Libya? We certainly made sure there were legitimate grounds first. And we really tried to rescue those guys in Beng-somewhere. Absolutely a last resort.
The fact is that the US armed forces’ top brass repeatedly bend over to accommodate the interests of those who get off on perpetual war.
