Gen. Martin Dempsey was appointed by Obama at the 18th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. From the Joint Chiefs of Staff website:
General Martin E. Dempsey serves as the 18th Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. In this capacity, he serves as the principal military adviser to the President, the Secretary of Defense and the National Security Council. By law, he is the nation’s highest-ranking military officer. Prior to becoming Chairman, the general served as the Army’s 37th Chief of Staff.
I understand that every president stacks the military high command with people who will do his bidding. In our nation’s current situation, there will be consequences. The president is very careful to have his appointees and czars do his bidding (or Valerie Jarrett’s bidding) in the White House, Congress, the Supreme Court and now the military. But the evil that has spread to every portion of our “Feral” (having escaped from the Constitution) government is now impacting what is left of our allies.
We sit back and watch with despair as our allegiance shifts from Christian and Jewish nations to the Muslim Brotherhood. The Jewish reaction to this presidency is so profound that even NPR (National Public Radio) is reporting on the Jewish buyer’s remorse. Next week, we will see the Muslims speak at the Democrat National Convention, but no Christian or Jewish organization will be allowed to speak.
The military’s reaction to this betrayal of our nation’s heritage and principles is growing except at the “high command”. I never believed that I would see the day in the United States where people where hoping for a military coup to remove the corruption that has overtaken the government. We can have no higher level of despair than placing our “hope” in a military dictatorship instead of the will of the people.
And that is the key. The people must understand what is at risk at all levels: religious, economic, Liberty and even our lives. But the real threat is that our government understands that Liberty cannot be quenched by tyranny and they are preparing for this contingency. In fact, I believe that this is the endgame of the Obama administration. Of all of the preparations that our government has undertaken, nothing is more perverse than buying 1.2 billion hollow point rounds of ammunition. If the top military leaders abandon Israel and denounce the actions of soldiers who are coming forward to tell us the truth (see below), what can the average person expect in the future.
Patrick Henry’s words must NEVER become a motto whose meaning is belittled by repetition. “Give me Liberty or give me death” at this point in time at least gives us the ability to chose our path instead of men without honor.

US disowns Israel over Iran strike: No weapons or military backup
US Gen. Martin Dempsey’s assertion Thursday, Aug. 30 that the US would not be “complicit” in an Israel strike against Iran, together with the drastic reduction in the scale of next month’s joint US-Israeli war game disclosed by TIME, add up to a blunt message from US President Barack Obama to Israel: You are on your own! See how you manage without special US weapons and US military backup, including a shield against missile counter-attack, if you decide to defy us and go through with a military operation against Iran.
Instead of the 5,000 US troops originally assigned for Austere Challenge 12, the annual joint exercise, the Pentagon will send only 1,200 to 1,500 service members. The missile interception systems at the core of the joint exercise will be reduced in number and potency: Patriot anti-missiles will come without crews and maybe one instead of two Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense warships, according to the magazine.
Dempsey ‘disappointed’ by anti-Obama campaign by ex-military members
The United States’ top military official criticized a group of former military and intelligence operatives for its aggressive campaign against President Obama, telling Fox News that he is “disappointed” by such political activity, which he called “not useful.”
The group of former CIA agents, Navy SEALs and other military members recently released a long-form political ad blasting Obama for security leaks on his watch, as well as suggesting he has taken too much credit for the SEALs raid in Pakistan that killed Usama bin Laden.
“If someone uses the uniform, whatever uniform, for partisan politics, I am disappointed because I think it does erode that bond of trust we have with the American people,” Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Martin Dempsey said in an interview with Fox News while flying back from a trip to Afghanistan and Iraq.
