The Regime of the False Messiah is making a huge mistake. They have decided to cut the number of ground troops from the military. This is a dangerous move because as the Iraq and Afghanistan wars proved, the US didn’t have enough ground troops to begin with. We had to rely on reserves and State National Guard Units to make up for the shortage in men. They are using Libya as an example of winning without ground troops. Well if using Jihadists to do our fighting is the future, no thanks.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The Obama administration will unveil a “more realistic” vision for the military on Thursday, with plans to cut tens of thousands of ground troops and invest more in air and sea power at a time of fiscal restraint, officials familiar with the plans said on Wednesday.
The strategic review of U.S. security interests will also emphasize an American presence in Asia, with less attention overall to Europe, Africa and Latin America alongside slower growth in the Pentagon’s budget, the officials said.
Though specific budget cut and troop reduction figures are not set to be announced on Thursday, officials confirmed to Reuters they would amount to a 10-15 percent decline in Army and Marine Corps numbers over the next decade, translating to tens of thousands of troops.

I do agree some cuts to the military budget are in order. Our fiscal situation is dire and we can’t be the world’s policemen.  I do agree that we should stop being so Middle East oriented and be more focused on our Hemisphere and the Pacific, which are our natural zones of influence. That said, cutting ground troops is shortsighted and very dangerous. The Regime of the False Messiah is playing with fire here and it will be Americans who will pay the price in blood due to lack of men.

Once the cuts are implemented it will be very difficult to undo. The Regime is playing with fire
