The morning after the 2020 election was stolen was a seminal moment in my life. I remember it very clearly — the emotions, the feeling of betrayal, the determination to fix my country’s problems.
However, last night I listened to Tucker Carlson’s interview with Scott Horton, a journalist who conducted a deep dive into the reasons for the recent decade’s forever wars.
Something changed inside me after listening last night.
I separated from the United States Air Force in 1994, after graduating from USAFA, and flying special operations helicopters.
The Gulf War was my era, my colleagues, my generation. It defined who we were as a military force.
Last night, I learned the entire justification for The Gulf War was fake.
I remember thinking back then that something was off about George H. W. Bush’s — “This will not stand…” — but I put it aside, and loved my country, trusted its leaders.
I knew personally many of the heroes of that war. Many of them died.
The honor, courage and sacrifice they exuded will not be matched.
