July 1935 German generals were called to a surprise assembly in Berlin and informed that their previous oath to the Weimar constitution was void and that they would be required to swear a personal oath to the Führer. Most generals took the new oath to keep their positions.
@general_ben Do you remember when Obama took Office and he began a purge of the military, firing a bunch of four star generals/admirals, etc. and they accused him of treason? Flat out, they accused him of treason against the United States and no one in the media reported on it beyond a
@general_ben Ben, from one U.S. Army retiree to another: you dishonor the oath you swore by twisting history to smear your own countrymen. Comparing today’s America to July 1935 Berlin is not just dishonest, it’s dangerous. Our oath was never to a man, a party, or a position. It was to the
@general_ben Wow…that point when you realized why the generals need to be called to make sure they understand the standards and leadership priorities Ben…calling people Hitler or fascist is uncalled for here and anywhere for that matter FFS You should read Krauthammer’s article
@general_ben shut up…
@general_ben There was a discussion about this last night on a live chat. A Retired Navy Commander posited if something like this happened, to keep it within the bounds of legality, it would happen in an NDA. After thinking about this for a while, I'm thinking an NDA is superfluous due to
@general_ben In 1860-1861 certain states in our constitutional republic seized federal property and attacked federal officers enforcing federal law. You do agree that ICE are federal officers who are enforcing federal law passed by the U.S. congress? Or do think that is Nazism?
@general_ben You forgot to add to your bio, “is a Marxist shithead…”
@general_ben I wish we could get a Hitler sometimes, just so you beta-cucks and Zionists could see what it was like. Then maybe you might appreciate the people who died so you could suck each other off.
@general_ben Did your mother raise any men?
@general_ben End of the FY, budget talks, info updates, needs across the force. Maybe it’s just the time of year (end of the FY) when these talks should happen? Asking for a friend.
@general_ben Interesting since Obama basically did the same thing. How many generals and admirals did Obama fire and then replace with left wing radical and woke replacements? Answer: hundreds.
@general_ben I honestly would like to know... do you really believe this? I mean I know it's the schtick you guys are running, but really, do you actually believe that?
@general_ben I thought critical thinking was the goal in both CGSC and War College. Guess not. Apparently neither is military history. Let’s try something a little closer to home for you. Given you weren’t in Desert Storm, perhaps you’re more able to expand on the subsequent military
@general_ben I have to do the retired warrant officer thing and say FU ass-hat. Quit being the problem.
@general_ben you want someone to shoot someone, don't you
@general_ben If you are an example of our current General officers then the best outcome of this meeting is to fire everyone. You haven’t won a war in my lifetime, hopefully your replacements will be better.
@general_ben I have a story: Nazi Party founded as German Workers’ Party by Anton Drexler, in 1919. Hitler attended a meeting that year, and before long his energy and oratorical skills would enable him to take over the party, renamed National Socialist German Workers’ Party in 1920.
@general_ben U lot are the Jew hating Nazis and just like in the WW2, you are in bed with the Muslims with your riots and support of Hamas! @Israel @GOP @IsraeliPM @POTUS https://www.instagram.com/reel...
@general_ben That's why we have the 2nd A. You forgot to say that the very 1st thing the national socialist party (NaZI) did when they came to power was to remove guns from its citizens. This continued selective quoting that fits ones narrative is quite disturbing. And these continued
@general_ben Say what you mean openly. If you actually believe this is the beginning of a fascist takeover just vaguely Tweeting about it is cowardice. If you don't actually believe it this is just incitement to violence. Which is it general? Cowardice or subversion?
@general_ben Do you see Nazi Germany everywhere? Is it the only point in history you are able to see and it's everywhere? Hegseth drinks water and so did Hitler! You are crazy and you are emboldening your lunatic fringe to assassinate people.
@general_ben You're a dumbshit lol
@general_ben Marxist and traitor Ben Hodges has a new delusion, this guy suffers from severe mental illness
@general_ben Your TDS has overwhelmed whatever remaining honor you may have once possessed. People ask me all the time who was the worst GOFO I ever worked with and it's you.
@general_ben How to tell the world your an insubordinate POS with out saying youre a POS. @SecWar recall him to Active Duty. He'll violate UCMJ with 24hours.
@general_ben You fucking dolt.
@general_ben I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that every single soldier who served under you - except for the ass-kissing promotion hounds - probably thought you were a giant fucking blue falcon. My father and grandfather and great grandfathers generations despised men like you rising
@general_ben Shut the fuck up puddle pirate
@general_ben The American people see right through your political bs, @general_ben you rat
@general_ben no one is pledging themselves to you, ya damn nazi.
@general_ben Keep it up, fuckface. More of the same, my political opponents are "fascists" bullshit
@general_ben GEN Beck didn't. There's a monument at Bergen-Hohne for him because he didn't.
@general_ben This is you. Stop it.
@general_ben Oh for the love of God, can we please stop with the Nazi fixation? You people have beaten that horse dead-dead,...... Mix it up, use some originality. Maybe an Ivan IV reference. How about Tamerlane? Toss in some of Qin Shi Huang's book burning. Honestly, you have to start
