The best job in the Marine Corps, if you want to see and in many cases do really cool stuff, is to be a Combat Photographer.

You work independently most of the time, so whether you're a PFC or a Sgt, you don't have officers and SNCOs standing over your shoulder telling you what to do, and the unit you're supporting has no idea what you're supposed to do.

You can work with every type of unit the Marine Corps has and attend the highest-level meetings imaginable.

I've worked extensively with tanks, LAVs, AMTRACs, SOTG (Special Operations Training Group), Force Reconnaissance, battalion recon, STA platoons (disbanded now, I think), infantry of every type (anti-tank, mortars, heavy weapons), artillery, G2, G3 and yes, PAO and logistics units. I've ridden in tanks (M60s), LAVs, AMTRACs, HMMWVs of every variant, Hueys, CH-46s, CH-53s, and C-130s. I've been in LCACs and rigid raiders (souped-up Boston Whalers). I've fast-roped onto GOPLATs, ships, and rooftops. I've attended Mountain Warfare School and MOUT training. I fired much of the small arms weapons inventory on a range and in CQB. I've been in classified meetings with the Commandant (Al Gray), just about every general officer in DC (Force Structure Study Group), the President of the United States (Bush Sr.), members of Congress, Secretary of Defense (Cheney), Schwarzkopf, and CENTCOM. I met and escorted countless celebrities and MSM figures—some were nice (Jay Leno), some were assholes (Dan Rather).

Why do I tell you this? Not sure, except to say there are few jobs in the military where you'll be exposed to such a wide variety of skills and capabilities and interact with the highest levels of leadership. If you keep your eyes and ears open, you'll gain a perspective and understanding of how all the pieces work and come together. No other job gives you a true appreciation for the Marine Corps.

The Admiral should know that the billet was downgraded to. Three star position. As such It could no longer be filled by a four star.

General Donahue could revert to Major General and stay in the Army or he can retire as a Four star. He had 90 days to choose.

@memecrashes Let’s see how much money Europe has for medical after they start paying their fair share of their defense.

The fact is the US has been subsidizing healthcare for Europe

Propaganda about Europe needing AC is dangerous and must stop

Heat waves are uncomfortable, yes, but they are survivable with basic common sense

AC is a luxury that accelerates the climate crisis causing these hot summers!

Instead destroying our planet even more, we must embrace sensible solutions: staying in a shade, opening windows at night and siestas

Europeans don't "need" AC to live productive lives

Let's just accept that sometimes weather is hot (shocking, I know)

A little discomfort is a small price for being morally correct

🚨 INCREDIBLE! President Trump personally awards US Marine Maj. James Capers, Jr. with the Medal of Honor, 60 YEARS after he saved his ENTIRE team while badly wounded in Vietnam

Thank you for your service, Maj. Capers!

You’re a TRUE American hero! 🇺🇸

“If they do this, they might as well rename the damn thing the Anti-MAGA Task Force.” Those words from internal memos shed new light on not just the targeting of parents at school board meetings as possible terrorists, but the legacy of Merrick Garland... https://t.co/dMFv7aNz1U

Even Arab leaders admit it.

Everyone is sharing the Bill Clinton clip where he describes how Yasser Arafat rejected a generous peace offer at Camp David that would have given the Palestinians a state on 96 percent of the West Bank, land swaps, and a capital in East Jerusalem. Clinton says Arafat lied to him and that the Palestinian leadership never actually wanted a two-state solution. They wanted to destroy Israel. It’s a video often shared by people like @VividProwess, and it’s an important one for people to see.

Of course, critics immediately dismiss it. They claim Clinton is biased or he’s pro-Israel. They’ll tell you that you cannot trust the American perspective.

Ok, so let us set that aside.

Now watch this.

In this powerful interview, former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, a major Arab leader who was directly involved in negotiations, says exactly the same thing from the Arab side. He talks about the Mena House Conference in Cairo as well as the Camp David negotiations of 1978. All failed because of the Palestinians repeatedly rejecting any offer. The Oslo accords were signed but because Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad were not involved, they derailed the accords and any chance for peace by initiating 4 years of terrorist suicide attacks in Israel. Then came the second Camp David negotiations in 2000 which Arafat agreed to, then rejected and instead initiated the Second Intifada.

Mubarak explains how the Palestinians refused to even participate in the Mena House conference of 1977. He describes repeated opportunities they were given, including a detailed document that called for Israeli withdrawal from the Samaria, Judea and Gaza, security arrangements during a transitional period, and other major concessions. The Israelis were willing to negotiate on difficult issues like who would control security. The Palestinians, according to Mubarak, kept saying no and wasting chance after chance.

He speaks with clear frustration about how for decades the Palestinian side has rejected peace initiatives and realistic compromises.

The video further shows footage from the PLO representative in 1977, as well as old footage of Egyptian president Sadat who was involved in the Mena House and first Camp David negotiations of 1978.

This perhaps is far more impactful than Clinton’s account because it is not a Western or Israeli voice. It is prominent Arab leaders who lived the negotiations, who represented the broader Arab world, and who had zero incentive to defend Israel.

When leaders from both sides of the table describe the same pattern of Palestinian rejectionism and violence, it becomes much harder to dismiss as bias.

The pattern is clear across decades and across different voices… generous offers, repeated refusals, and continued demands for everything while giving nothing in return.

This is not ancient history. It is the core reason the conflict continues today.

If you value the truth, please share.
