'Training Iraqis and Afghans to maintain western-style security is a waste of time and U.S. military leaders are so afraid of offending people that they refuse to do what’s necessary to win.

That’s the thesis of a very blunt book by former U.S. Navy SEAL Carl Higbie, entitled “Battle on the Homefront: A Navy SEAL’s Mission to Save the American Dream.”

Higbie tells us of his two tours in Iraq and the stunningly inept Iraqis he was ordered to train.

“It was unfathomable how dumb the people were over there,” Higbie told WND. “It’s difficult to get them to do basic tasks such as reading a map or doing jumping jacks. And we’re giving them guns!”'
