The "War" Next Time

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. 

 

Sergeant Major of the Army Michael Weimer, that service’s top enlisted soldier, recently declared, “I have never been to war.” 

 

To be sure, over his decades of decorated service, that veteran special operator has fought in many of our nation’s military actions, including the so-called “Global War on Terror.”

 

The senior Sergeant Major’s comment was followed by this vital clarification: “Not war like we’re talking about, large-scale combat operations with a near-peer….This has the potential to change the American way of life.” 

 

The “near-peer” enemy, of course, is the Chinese Communist Party. And the “People’s War” against America that it declared publicly five years ago could “go kinetic” at any moment. 

 

Given the stakes, SMA Weimer’s warning – and what we must do to deter the CCP and, failing that, to defeat it – should be the most important issue in this fall’s election.
