Generally you don’t criticize the commander regardless of political views or beliefs.

The few who do generally get fired regardless of president.

That being said, criticism from military officers over this has happened so it ultimately comes down to which talking head you choose to listen to.
Myself, I look at the military assets they move into place, the main tactical uses and pretty much ignore what the talking heads claim.

So you suggest being sitting ducks.
I don’t expect a commander in chief to send the message you can attack his country with no recourse.
No, not sitting ducks. Harmless doves. Under the protection and mighty hand of God.

I hate to tell you but Christians get killed in Iran frequently.
Anyways a Commander in Chief will not look at guarding his country the same as an Anabaptist.

Desperately trying to keep gas prices down leading up to the midterms, but also desperately wanting to be the big global bully on the block... a hard line to walk straight... when your drunk on power and war...

A Confessing Church would acknowledge the inescapable realities of sin and injustice in every human institution, including every political party. It would wholeheartedly reject any suggestion that one party or movement is the party of God. Paul D Miller
