My son has a Fed position working for Homeland Security. None of this is Bullshit*t. He did a four year tour in the Air Force and was stationed at a "secret" base in England. (RAF Molsworth. Search, you'll find it). Because of his secret security clearance he hasn't told us about his work in the Middle East during the early 2000's. We know that his job includes Internet security and communication infrastructure. What little he has told us adds up to "f**k it. U.S. presence there is a waste of time, money and human life. How do fight organizations that have proclaimed a world wide caliphate against all non believers. One time while being transported by humvee to their work assignments his group encountered children standing in the road. This is a ploy that terrorist groups use to stop convoys. Once they stop, they encounter RPG fire and are in the middle of an ambush. So this day their driver punched it and ran over a group of kids. He had to. If they stopped him and his buddies would be toast. What do you say about a military group that uses women and children ad shields. And their religion condones it. Just spouting off. Don't mean to bring ya down. Love your work by the way.
