100% tho this sort of cowardice is not limited to liberals -- at least historically. For instance many were sent to Vietnam by politicians who knew the war was hopeless. (which is to say there wasn't political will to prosecute it to the conclusion). Similarly sent to Iraq for political/economic reasons.
Guys on the ground in positions like this are usually pretty good at their jobs, which is why they get filtered out and quit after people who aren't good at anything interfere with them.
We’re so cucked and neutered from being brought up into this faggot society that we need to ask permission from the government to save our own lives. It’s like that cruise ship that sank in Korea, people will just sit there and drown because someone in charge told them to.
Remember, the same decision-makers that refused this sergeant authority to fire on a target with a precision rifle when he was reasonbly certain that the target was a suicide bomber turned around and dropped a bomb on an aid worker, killing 10, including 7 children, in retaliation for the bombing they failed to prevent.
These people are criminally negligent. And they're fucking liars; they swore there were secondary explosions when they killed the aid worker and his family, and only reversed themselves when video proved they were lying.
The fact that the battalion commander had no idea who to contact for permission to engage is amazing. That kind of knowledge is literally part of his job. And if he didn't know, he should have asked his boss (who is also likely the higher engagement authority anyways). That guy needs to be fired yesterday before he gets more people killed.
But that's emblematic of the rot in the U.S. military. Competent people get sick of the ineptitude of officers and NCOs and get out after their first contract is over. And those that remain are the dullards who are in it just to collect a paycheck and retire with a pension.
My guess is that the reason that the LTC never gave permission to fire himself is that he was afraid of making the wrong decision and being punished for it. Or being punished for making the right decision without following the proper procedure. All because this guy is afraid for his pension and hopes to pick up full-bird someday.
It's Benghazi all over again. Liberals get American servicemen killed with their cowardice and incompetence.
And then the media will quote Hillary and say what difference does it make
“Women and children are most affected by conflict and climate change” - Hillary Clinton (not joking)
I remember that gem.
I would hope so since it was 2 days ago

Gotcha, I guess I confused it with a similar remark she has made in the past whining about something.

They knowingly installed a fraud President, followed "his" instructions (really, his puppet masters), so they 100% own this.
People empathizing with the military need to remember who's side the military is on, and it's certainly not on We The People's.
The military installed Biden?
Unfortunate accident for this serviceman. So sorry for his families loss in two weeks.

Remember, all of this happened because Biden wanted to do a photo-op on 9/11.
