Au Contraire ........James Mattis was not "..... saddened by peace" but by gutless wonders who were supposed to be his superiors but were not. Just another step down for Amnerica and death spiral imposed upon us by our so called "superiors." We need more men like Mattis.......thank you sir for your service to America and God bless your family. Now, that statement should drive the liberal appeasers crazy......gets their blood boiling again......... In a message dated 11/15/2013 1:26:32 P.M. Pacific Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
Gen. James Mattis, --- just another warmonger saddened by peace. On Thursday, November 14, 2013 3:14:17 PM UTC-6, Travis wrote: PURE USMC Please share this with everyone on your email list! Is anyone surprised Obama forced this General out of Service? His last quote is his best! March 18, 2013 Gen. James Mattis, known to his troops as "Mad Dog Mattis," is retiring after 41 years of military service. The Marine Corps Times is calling Mattis the "_ most revered Marine in a generation._ (http://militarytimes.com/blogs/battle-rattle/2013/03/18/gen-james-mattis-now-its-time-to-go/) " Mattis has been commander of the United States Central Command since 2010 and led the 1st Marine Division into Iraq in 2003. According to reports, _President Barack Obama decided to force the Marine Corps legend out_ (http://freebeacon.com/report-obama-ousting-centcom-chief-mattis/) early because he rubbed civilian officials the wrong way, and forced them to answer tough questions regarding Iran. Mattis was an inspirational leader of men and his powerful words will go down in history. Here are some of the best words the "Mad Dog" has had to offer… 1. "I don't lose any sleep at night over the potential for failure. I cannot even spell the word." (_ San Diego Union Tribune_ (http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2013/jan/19/mattisretiring/?page=4) ) 2. "The first time you blow someone away is not an insignificant event. That said, there are some assholes in the world that just need to be shot." (_ Business Insider_ (http://www.businessinsider.com/general-maddog-mattiss-best-quotes-2013-1?op=1) ) 3. "I come in peace. I didn't bring artillery. But I'm pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you screw with me, I'll kill you all." (_ San Diego Union Tribune_ (http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2013/jan/19/mattisretiring/?page=4) ) 4. "Find the enemy that wants to end this experiment (in American democracy) and kill every one of them until they're so sick of the killing that they leave us and our freedoms intact." (_ San Diego Union Tribune_ (http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2013/jan/19/mattisretiring/?page=4) ) 5. "Marines don't know how to spell the word defeat." (_ Business Insider_ (http://www.businessinsider.com/general-maddog-mattiss-best-quotes-2013-1?op=1) ) 6. "Be polite, be professional but have a plan to kill everybody you meet." (_ San Diego Union Tribune_ (http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2013/jan/19/mattisretiring/?page=4) ) 7. "The most important six inches on the battlefield is between your ears." (_ San Diego Union Tribune_ (http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2013/jan/19/mattisretiring/?page=4) ) 8. "You are part of the world's most feared and trusted force. Engage your brain before you engage your weapon." (_ Mattis' Letter To 1st Marine Division_ (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4b/Genmattisltr.jpg) ) Gen. Mattis in 2006 9. "There are hunters and there are victims. By your discipline, cunning, obedience and alertness, you will decide if you are a hunter or a victim." (_ Business Insider_ (http://www.businessinsider.com/general-maddog-mattiss-best-quotes-2013-1?op=1) ) 10. "No war is over until the enemy says it's over. We may think it over, we may declare it over, but in fact, the enemy gets a vote." (_ Defense News_ (http://www.defensenews.com/article/20100523/DEFFEAT03/5230301/Gen-James-Mattis) ) 11. "There is nothing better than getting shot at and missed. It's really great." (_ San Diego Union Tribune_ (http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2013/jan/19/mattisretiring/?page=4) ) 12. "You cannot allow any of your people to avoid the brutal facts. If they start living in a dream world, it's going to be bad." (_ San Diego Union Tribune_ (http://www.utsandiego.com/news/2013/jan/19/mattisretiring/?page=4) ) Gen. Mattis and Gen. Dempsey 13. "You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them. Actually it's quite fun to fight them, you know. It's a hell of a hoot. It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right up there with you. I like brawling." (_CNN_ (http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/02/03/general.shoot/) ) 14. "I'm going to plead with you, do not cross us. Because if you do, the survivors will write about what we do here for 10,000 years."
