Two days after
Vice Adm. Tim Giardina, the commander of all our nuclear subs was fired, then
Major Gen. Michael Carey, the commander of all our nuclear ICBMs was fired and replaced by a dual-citizen named Jacob "Jack" Weinstein.
How do these dual citizens of Israel continue to receive security clearances?
This is clearly a national security nightmare waiting to happen.
Update: January 18, 2014
The shakeup has begun under our Israeli-American General Jacob Weinstein.
Why are our military commanders not shielded from the politics of
Obama? Isn't that one of the MUST-HAVES -- that we must secure a
"politically secular" military?
There is nothing politically secular going on here. This is a reverse-Nazi purge of our military.
AP Findings on Troubles in Nation's Nuclear Force
by AP on Jan 16, 2014
A string of nuclear missteps, many uncovered by The Associated Press, have beset the nation's nuclear force in the last year:
— On Wednesday, the Air Force
said 34 nuclear missile launch officers have been implicated in a
cheating scandal and have been stripped of their certification in what
the Air Force believes is the largest such breach of integrity in the
nuclear force. The cheating involves the monthly test on their
knowledge of how to operate the missiles.
— As part of the announcement Wednesday of the alleged cheating, the
Air Force said three ICBM launch officers — two at Malmstrom Air Force
Base in Montana and one at F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming — were
among 11 officers at six bases implicated in an illegal-narcotics
investigation.
List of 9 Generals Recently Fired
Gen. Carter Hamm, Army
Served as head of the United States African Command during the
bloodshed in Benghazi, Libya when four American citizens, including
Ambassador Christopher Stevens and two retired Navy Seals, were
murdered by militants on Sept. 11, 2012. Senior military officials told
TheBlaze Hamm was extremely critical of the Obama administration,
including when reinforcements were not sent to help the U.S. citizens
under attack in Benghazi. Hamm "resigned and retired" in April 2013.
Rear Adm. Charles Gaouette, Navy
Commander of Carrier Strike Group Three. He recently served as deputy
commander of the U.S. Naval Forces, U.S. Central Command. He was in
charge of Air Craft Carriers in the Mediterranean Sea the night of the
Benghazi assault on Sept. 11, 2012. Under testimony, he told Congress
there may not have been time to get the flight crews to Benghazi, but
left the door open when he told Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) under
cross-examination that he could have launched aircraft to the
destination. He was later accused of using profanity in a public
setting and making at least two racially insensitive comments. While he
was cleared of any criminal violations under the Uniform Code of
Military Justice, he still faced administrative penalties that have
ended his career.
Maj. Gen. Ralph Baker, Army
Major General Baker served as commander of the Joint Task Force-Horn at
Camp Lamar in Djibouti, Africa. According to several military officials
who spoke to TheBlaze, he was also involved in some aspect with the
Benghazi incident Sept. 11, 2012. He was relieved of command and fired
for allegedly groping a civilian, but no assault charges or sexual
misconduct charges were filed with military JAG officials.
Brigadier Gen. Bryan Roberts, Army
General Roberts took command of Fort Jackson in 2011. He was considered
a rising star in his field and served in Iraq during his service as the
commanding officer of the 2nd Brigade Combat Team. He was the deputy
commanding general of the United States Army Recruiting Command at Fort

President Bill Clinton's indiscretions.

Raible, 40, and Sgt. Bradley W. Atwell, 27.
