Today, Dubbyuh goes to Camp Pendleton to thank the Marines and families of the still deployed 1st Expeditionary Force for their sacrifices in the "war on terror". Instead, he should be on his knees, abjectly begging their forgiveness.
He should be begging forgiveness for sending these brave, resolute men and women into harms way based upon a lie. He should beg forgiveness for placing ideological purity above human life. He should beg forgiveness for his failure to admit his errors. He should be begging forgiveness for so ill using these rough men who go willingly into harms way for sending them off to an illegal and illegitimate war.
In turn, these troops and their families should rebuke him. But this will not happen, for Dubbyuh's hubris knows no bounds. He is blinded by his own self-righteousness and is convinced he is on a mission from God Almighty himself. Such a person will never admit to their errors as they are incapable of even perceiving them. Their ears are closed to the voice of reason prefering, instead, to listen to the voice of their own unreason and overweening pride. He will apologize for nothing...not ever.
Dubbyuh's visit to Camp Pendleton is nothing more than an expensive photo-op. A photo-op bought and paid for with the lives of the men of the Marines' 1st Expeditionary Corps.
