It would have been somewhat less likely? Less predictable?
I believe everyone who has commented on this is for the idea. Even me.
The use of foreign born in the military is as old as the military. Certainly then Romans did it extensively.
The Romans did it because they were imperialists. They not only had to defend what they had, they also needed the troops to continue expanding. Not exactly a great example coming from a "progressive".
It also bit them in the ass more than once. In fact it's bit many an army in the ass that's done it. Especially since most armies that have done it were armies of imperialism.
The trick is making sure your interests and their interests aren't going to conflict at some point, and that can be hard to predict.

LIE-berals HAVE NO INTENTION of ever buying new fighter jets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it is true that LIE-berals DID BUY some new armoured personnel carriers.........................

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


"FCUKING Crazy"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


the epithet of choice for LIE-berals.................................


who know I am right.................................


and dont really want to admit it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


So the LIE-beral DISSEMBLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Is it not amusing that in their usual messed up way, LIE-berals are attacking Trump for the wrong reason!!

I refer to the LIE-beral claim that Trump cares nothing for civil rights!! The fact is that Trump thinks on a much larger stage than petty, small minded LIE-berals!
WE have only to consider events in Hong Kong to recognize this!!

At the time that the leased territory of Hong Kong was returned to Beijing control- the Chinese leaders were in a conciliatory mood and did not wish to take away to many assorted western style civil rights for fear of stirring up international trouble!!!!

But it CLEARLY IRKS the Beijing Butchers that Hong Kong has rights that other Chinese do not have and so Beijing has been trying to erode those rights! That effort has culminated in the latest protests and riots in Hong Kong!!!!!

The timing of these protests is no coincidence!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Beijing Butchers are under huge pressure - from both domestic and foreign sources!!

Beijing badly wants to repress various minorities in their country such as Uighurs, Muslims, Tibetans and the people living in “special economic zones” such as Hong Kong and Singapore!!

In addition Beijing is driving hard to take a DOMINANT SPOT on the world economic stage!! The social and economic consequences of the disastrous “one child policy” are coming home to roost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Most Chinese prefer boy children- and millions of female fetuses were aborted- with many Chinese men now unable to find mates- producing severe social diss- satisfaction!!! Wealthy and educated young Chinese men are now considering immigration - taking their skills and abilities to the outside world to some other country with a large ethnic Chinese population- with women interested in a wealthy hubby -no matter that he is a Socialist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(China is seriously afraid of a “brain drain” that will hamper its economy even as it is stressed most heavily by the AGING of that population!! Both China and Japan are dealing with the harsh consequences of ultra low birth rates and after many decades there is virtually NO younger generation to tend to the elderly!!!! In addition- the Chinese themselves refer to their kids as “The Little Emperors !!!!

These “Emperor” children were rare and pampered elites but they are now expected to do the heavy lifting for an aging society- work they are not mentally prepared to perform!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So to head off social unrest the Beijing Butchers seek out UNFAIR trade deals where ever they may be found!! Deals like building a huge hydro electric dam on the side of an ACTIVE VOLCANO in Ecuador!! Deals like DUMPING all sorts of products around the world in any market that is not guarding itself most carefully!!!!!!!!!!!

It is this dumping of products and currency manipulation that people like Trump DEPLORE as it impacts local economies so dramatically!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

In addition, China has a HUGE CORRUPTION problem- with cops and govt officials taking huge bribes for all manner of deals!! Chinese “shadow banks” - meaning rather polished and urbane LOAN SHARKS - that govt cannot shut down finance much economic activity in areas that cops are unable or unwilling to investigate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This shadow economy is the source of stuff like the “Melamine scandal’ in which hundreds of Chinese infants were POISONED by milk that had the compound Melamine added as a cost saving- product handling measure!! This shadow economy is the source of all manner of products contaminated with lead and other compounds that can harm western kids!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This shadow economy is the one most likely to exploit slave labour and ethnic groups!! The shadow economy makes it hard to measure the scale of Chinese debt! This shadow economy is most likely the major source of much pollution as well!!!

Beijing believes its economy MUST GROW by 10 percent per year- to tend to rising expectations of the population and to deal with the rake off of profits by organized crime and corruption!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beijing has made promises it CANNOT KEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Beijing is now making serious efforts to subvert foreign govts and economies in an effort to take unfair advantage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is the atmosphere in which Trump wages his “trade war” against the Beijing Butchers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT IS NOT a coincidence that Hong Kong protestors are so active at this time!! They know that Beijing is VULNERABLE and may be dealt with more easily at this time!!

Western govts are already disgusted with Chinese sponsorship of violence in places like Darfur!! The west is outraged that Chinese military would simply annex a bunch of islands in the South China Sea- islands that are claimed by FIVE other countries!! But there is oil under the sea bed and near the islands and China wants it- and SCREW the neighbours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Trump has made mention of Cdn steel and aluminum and well he should since some Cdns think aiding China to import various metals into Canada and then MISS - LABEL were it came from- to avoid dumping accusations against Beijing - is good biz- for Cdns!! Too bad about BOTH Cdn and Yankee workers getting screwed by Beijing!!!!!!!!!!

And western govts are indignant about Huawei and its SPY TECHNOLOGY!! That the spy and sabotage gear is tied up in a nice neat phone does not eliminate the Chinese threat!! Most NATO govts have shunned the Huawei 5G technology but not so Our idiot Boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Our idiot Boy has told us “he likes the way the Chinese get things done”!!!!!!!

And Pierre Trudeau wrote a book about his travels in Red China in which Pierre heaped FAWNING PRAISE on Chairman Mao for what VILE Pierre called “Mao`s genius in rushing 30 million Chinese to the gallows”!! Yes Our PET openly applauded MASS MURDER - in the regime that Our idiot Boy openly admires!!!!!!!!!!!

United States DOES NOT WANT Canada to become yet another FAILED Socialist state!! It is NOT Trumps fault that Venezuela is a bankrupt socialist MESS!! But Trump must deal with the human fallout and fleeing refugees!!!!!!!!!

It is not Trumps fault that crooked politicians in Ecuador took bribes from China and permitted that hugely costly dam to be built on the side of a volcano- on rock so unstable the dam may one day soon give way- with dire consequence for people living down river!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Reports indicate that the dam may give way if the power plant is simply run at FULL POWER -the one time that was tried the vibration was so bad the terrified engineers shut it down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is not Trunps fault that violence, corruption, drug gangs and bribery are endemic in much of South America- but somehow he must deal with the HORDES of ECONOMIC refugees!!

Many people want to come to North America simply because THINGS FUNCTION HERE!! The lights are on and the toilets flush and the transit buses have decent brakes and can pass a safety inspection!! North American cops do not automatically put their hand out for bribes!! The school teachers get paid regularly and make honest efforts to teach those kids who want to learn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And Trump must deal with all this stuff as well- at the same time main street America is GROWING ANGRY at the number of “homeless” on the streets!! Main Street DOES NOT see drug addicts as innocent victims since they chose to BEGIN the addiction in the first place!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

North America CANNOT save the entire world from its own worst impulses!! Beijing, Moscow, Tehran and Pyongyang have demonstrated a willingness to use violence if it will further their aims!! Such is the megalomania and the desperation of the Dictators!! And Trump must deal with this crap as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Meanwhile the Hong Kong protestors battle on seeking to defend their own civil rights- such a they are - as a special zone within the Chinese National Prison Camp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is Trump and his pressure on Beijing that has enabled and emboldened the desperate Hong Kong protestors to seek protection of their few civil rights!!!!! !

Such is the DISGRACED STATE of all LIE-beral policy that LIE-berals would rather see Trump loose to China in the trade war- than see him win and in doing so- FURTHER ERODE public respect for Red China and for LIE-beral Policy FAILURES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for the Hong Kong protestors- LIE-berals DO NOT SEE OR HEAR THEM at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What evil little fukkeers there are, why not put the West Point grads on the front-line rather than a kid who is unsur3e of just who there weapons work in the battlefield. Easy to see who are the main abusers of children in the US. How disbanding the standing armies as they cause nothing but trouble for people as their single master is the World Bank fukkers.

U.S. Military eyes 16-year-olds as ranks and candidates dwindle



The best way to fix the U.S. armed forces’ recruiting challenges may involve dipping further into the nation’s high schools.
As the Army, Navy and other services contend with a thriving economy and a directive to expand their ranks, there is a growing debate over whether the military should consider lowering the minimum enlistment age from 17 to 16. More than a dozen countries, including the United Kingdom, already have adopted the policy.

Critics say the idea is deeply flawed and presents a host of societal problems, but supporters argue that the Pentagon needs to think outside the box if it wants to continually overcome one of the toughest recruiting environments in decades
