Scapegoat is now an occupational code.
“Since the ambush, four-star general officers have done everything in their power to avoid taking any responsibility for their command’s failures. Instead, they push blame down to the lowest possible levels, desperately searching for scapegoats to deflect blame from their careers and systemic failures within the services. The solution is not to fault soldiers under fire, but to fix the universal problems in higher commands.
Unfortunately, the military is infected with the same level of incompetence at the highest levels as other organizations. It’s time the American people realized this, and forced our elected leaders to take greater interest and control in military affairs. Leadership failures of this magnitude disrespect our sons and daughters who serve, denigrate the armed services, and cannot be allowed to continue.”

The good guys were shown the door by Obama a long time ago.
Right,because having a “diverse fighting force” means there is no room for anyone that actually knows how to fight.
