On-Scene Military Commanders Authority to Take Offensive Action
Unless you are on drugs or are a democrat voter, you have been following the capture and rescue of Richard Phillips the Master of the Maersk-Alabama container freighter. You know how the American Crew fought off armed criminals, aka Pirates, from Somalia with fire hoses, and any other makeshift weapon they could use; how Philips volunteered to surrender to these Terrorist/Pirates/Muslims to spare his crew from possible harm.
You also know that these liberals made their get-away in the ship’s lifeboat while tugging along the Master of the Alabama. There are a few actions of the on scene Commander, the pirates and Obama himself that you may not be aware of, however. For example: The Captain of the USS Bainbridge DDG-96 requested repeatedly for instructions from Obama for offensive action against the Terrorist/Pirates which were never sent.
The “on scene Commander” which is the CO of the Bainbridge, after observing threatening actions from one of the Pirates whom while behind the Master of the Alabama, leveled his AK-47 at the same as preparing to shoot him in the back, ordered the Special Warfare personnel to take out said terrorist, plus the other two, to preserve the Master’s life.
The above action of the CO of the USS Bainbridge is authorized by DOD Directives, and Naval Regulations.
My thoughts: We obviously do not have a strong, courageous Commander-in-Chief of our Magnificent Armed Forces at this time.
God preserve us.
