Losing the US Navy SEALs?
|
[American Thinker] So is Joe Biden ready to lose the U.S. Navy SEALs?
Sure looks like it, based on this JustTheNews report:
Several hundred elite Navy SEALs are in danger of being blocked from deploying with their special operator teams by the Pentagon after failing to get a mandatory COVID vaccine, according to a lawyer and pastor counseling them.
The number involved in the dispute with the Pentagon amounts to as many as a quarter or more of all active duty SEALs, a loss that could impact military readiness since SEAL teams play an outsized role in modern military operations, their advocates told Just the News.
If so, that's bad news for military readiness. We all know what happens to military readiness when the Navy loses a ship — imagine the impact of losing a huge chunk of the elite fighting force. And in the wake of Biden's failed Afghanistan pullout, with terrorists the world over regrouping, there could be consequences for the U.S.
JustTheNews notes that it costs $500,000 to train a SEAL. There's also the reality that only one out of four SEAL applicants actually makes it through training to get the title of SEAL; the rest wash out. They're not called an elite fighting force for nothing. What's more, they are very popular with the public, having taken down Osama bin Laden and other terrorist monsters to protect our country. Biden wants to get rid of that?
Now, to be fair, there are sound reasons for asking troops to get vaxxed. One unvaxxed troop spreading disease to the others on the tightly packed Navy ship or submarine is no laughing matter, particularly since the vaccine itself isn't preventing breakthrough infections.
But there are valid reasons for objecting, too.
Taking the vaccine, for one, might actually be making troops more vulnerable, if the example of hyper-vaxxed Israel is taken into account.
Some troops may object to taking the vaccine based on that, and others may object based on the record these vaccines have of triggering heart problems in young people, particularly healthy young men such as themselves. Compared to the low lethality of having COVID among the healthy young, taking a vaccine with those life-altering potential results seems stupid.
