When I first read of Lt. Watada I thought it was a somewhat recent fact. Instead of that, I see how the far-left has already built up an idol-cult shit around his person. This pays off for what you did, man: you’re gonna suffer them, now that you’re their pawn.

The problem with Watada is not a young man protesting. You’ve got a few of them, but hey, at least they don’t draft you no more, like in Nam’s time. No, the problem I think it’s having an officer doing what the enlistees are supposed to do: bitching around.
You see, this guy is only a L.t. But, what if a General disagrees with the Pentagon? What if that general has control of a division and marches on Washington? You’ve got yourself a coup.
This, apart from being a huge media-lead manoeuvre from the far-left, settles a dangerous precedent the Military Justice should deal with swiftly. It is well known that in America, the military don’t get into politics, as long as they are in Active Service. And the reason is perfectly clear: we don’t want America to become Chavez’s Venezuela. No way.
Watada has failed to understand this and that his refusal is gonna be used against his true cause. What reluctant military can do is what CWO Bert Stover, who has a blog in the Washington Post. He’s learned to live with disagreement, expressed always in a respectful way. He’s to be commended for going, he’s to be honored. That’s what Americans shouldn’t forget: honour your soldiers, don’t encourage them to defect!
