Martial Law: Imminent Arrival?

[Magda Hassan]

It is also my experience that those who claim dangerous combat experience have usually just experienced the military from the catering corp. :hobbyhorse:

The problem here is that there doesn't seem to be any real information about Gordon Duff's military career.So,who knows?It seems to me that as a so-called voice for Veterans,that he has an obligation to provide some details about his service.

Now,saying that,it does look like he did serve as a grunt for 4 months.If so,then I give him respect for that.

Sure 4 months as a grunt deserves respect, even 2 years in the safety of catering does in it own way but the dodgy journalism doesn't. That needs lots of careful handling and double checking and multiple supporting sources. I mean, just look who they use.... while they may use good sources like Gilad Atzmon and Sibel Edmonds they also use Jim Fetzer and Leo Wanta. And in any case despite the grandiose titles and corporate wannabe look it is just a small operation with a handful of core people there. And there is nothing wrong with that. I seriously doubt there is an international pay roll for the international correspondents. Just some cutting and pasting from other sources. Again not that there is any thing wrong with that. It's fine to be a small operation with a few bored veterans with an interest in politics looking for extra income from advertising to supplement the lousy military pensions. New York Times and The Independent they are not. Not that any one should want to be them either....They have actually handled some good stories from time to time, Col Sabow's murder and some of Tosh's stuff is there too, but others, mmmm....
