More than 50 spies working for the military have come out with shocking allegations: according to them, the Obama administration has taken their painfully honest assessments of the war against ISIS and effectively reinterpreted them to paint a rosy picture of things that reflects well on the president’s efforts against the terrorist group.
The spies specifically went out of their way to clarify that it wasn’t just a matter of rogue agents telling falsehoods to advance their own careers. Rather, as one of the operatives involved said, “The cancer was within the senior level of command,” revealing how high this conspiracy of competence goes.
Indeed, the allegations are serious enough that the Pentagon has charged it’s inspector general with investigating the intelligence agents’ claims. This followed the submission of a formal written complaint by two veteran analysts at U.S. Central Command in July, prompting the Department of Defense to look into the matter itself.

I’ve always felt it was senior leaders protecting their careers. The public opinion idea still doesn’t carry much weight with me.
Assuming it is true and due to career advancement it points a a disruptional relationship between military leaders and the administration; possibly even abusive.
Working as partners when one fails you both fail. Therefor an administration trying to accomplish a goal should not be punishing leaders for failures. Failures happen; they should be asking what it is they need.
It is exactly like a marriage. You don’t kick your wife out because she can’t handle the kids activities, cook, clean, and so on. You find out what it is she needs so you can help and move forward together.
Likewise the wife ought to be strong enough to say she needs help, just as generals should be man enough to say “I need help” and they should not live in fear of saying that.
This is a leadership failure on all levels. This administration doesn’t appear to know how to lead anything from private citizens (as evident by how the nation is at each other’s throats) to the military. In addition military leadership have failed as well. If a soldier can be in a 24 hour fire fight they ought to be able to pick up a phone in their air conditioned office and tell the truth.
I get more and more disgusted with this government everyday. They place themselves on pedestal but when it comes down to it. The same games everyone else plays are being played by them. They reflect the population that elected them; filled with criminals, imbeciles, and narcissists. The only difference is they are accountable to no one so their mistakes and their corruption recycle and compound.
I think he never worked for America
He was a Liar King…plus Hillary the Liar Queen, he wants to transform our Country into a Muslim World….and then impose his Sharia Law that fits only in their Islamic world.
You can forget about congress doing anything. It now has to be the people to stand up. We won’t make it another year if we don’t.
This should come as no shock to anyone, when the whole world gives one version of terrorism in the world and our king says that things are just fine, Isis is a jv team, and contained and decimated, and then every day we hear about another mass killing by Isis.
Will our congress ever have the courage to impeach this traitorous imposter?
He’s still free, that means not enough care to make a difference.
Ewwww big surprise!!
Not really a suprised. What would be a suprised is if anybody in Congress does anything about it other than talk about it.
And nothing will be done about it…
