Excerpt:
In November, after the killing of 13 US soldiers and the wounding of 28 others by a Muslim US Army Major, I wrote a blog post predicting that President Obama's picks to head the special investigation would come up with a conclusion report that would meet the standards of political correctness, and studiously avoid putting any blame on military leaders or policies that allowed such a dangerous threat to progress through the promotion system. I predicted as much because the top investigators, Mr Togo West and Admiral Vernon Clark, were two Clinton-era appointees who had been central figures in pushing PC personnel policies on the forces
For decades, the military fostered "diversity" and "affirmative action" policies that established lower recruitment, promotion, and performance standards for politically favoured ethnic groups. Despite the negative effects on morale and efficiency these policies have had, they could not be criticised by anyone who valued his or her career.
Unfortunately, my prediction that the Obama administration report on Fort Hood would be a whitewash has proven spot-on correct. The Defence Department just released the official report called "Protecting the Force: Lessons from Fort Hood." The document is worse than nonsense; it is a travesty and an insult to US armed forces.
