Thank you for the very informative answer.

I still cannot understand why "it had to be this way". On one hand, I can see a case to be made that the standing military (senior officers) had become hopelessly corrupt, beyond salvaging … evil, in many respects … a mere tool of globohomo, so that this "coming out of the closet" we are seeing now was inevitable … but how many rank-and-file personnel were destroyed by that damned jab? I was never in the military, but for two years I worked in a bar outside the main gate of a major Army air base, and I met many good-hearted, well-meaning, patriotic servicemen and women. It pisses me off that any of them had to be sacrificed and discarded as part of this damned "plan".
