   It would appear that the group has kept their word and killed most of the 18 as 14 bodies have been discovered close to where they were kidnapped. All were Iraqi policeman. Source

Pentagon Neglecting National Guard

   An independent commission said in a report which Congress has received that the United States National Guard is not being equipped by the Pentagon in an adequate fashion. There's another shocker!

   Does our president or the Pentagon do anything right by our troops? So far, that would be NO! Blogger's and the MSM have to discover these things and report then to the public before this group of shitheads does anything even close to being right. That's pathetic.

"DOD's failure to appropriately consider National Guard needs and funding requirements has produced a National Guard that is not fully ready to meet current and emerging missions," the commission concluded.

Among its findings, the 13-member panel said the Defense Department was not adequately equipping the Guard for its domestic missions.

The National Guard’s 458,000 citizen-soldiers have a dual mandate to protect the United States both at home and abroad.

Nearly 90 percent of Guard units in the United States are rated “not ready,” partly because of equipment shortages, according to Guard data and the findings of the Commission on the National Guard and Reserves, the Washington Post reported.
