Mattis' Pentagon Gracefully Avoids Political Altercations

If I were going to pick a fight, it wouldn’t be Mattis. You would have to be stupid to poke that beehive.

Mattis is quietly and professionally going about destroying the enemies of this country that were allowed to grow and fester under the previous administration. He has done in one year what previous Secretaries of Defense were unwilling or unable to do in 8. It is amazing what happens when there is support from the command element/structure to defeat our enemies in the battlefield.

Is anyone talking about the ISIS caliphate in Northern Iraq and Syria any longer? Nope. Has Syria stabilized quite a bit, yes. It isn't perfect but it is far more stable now than in the last 5-7 years. They massive migrations appear to have ceased quite a bit now too.
