Act Of ValorAct Of Treason: Obama Imposes Affirmative Action On Navy SEALs By Paul Kersey on February 23, 2012 at 9:30pm "We got him." The triumphant moment of President Barack Obama's time as Commander-in-Chief came when he announced the successful mission by Navy SEALs to take out Osama Bin Laden. It was spontaneously celebrated by Americans of all political leanings. It gave Obama a card that no Republican can match. Footage of Americans celebrating the Navy SEALS success is compelling to anyone interested in "The National Question". You see a genuine outpouring of patriotic emotion in the wake of the 9/11 mastermind's death. For a moment, it was possible to believe that United States of America was still a serious nationinstead of a dissolving empire ruled by unelected judges and tyrannical Department of Justice bureaucrats bent on, in Peter Brimelows words, "electing a new people." Obama has wrapped himself in the mantle of the SEALS. This unit has become the face of his Administration's defense strategy. [CBS News, January 26, 2012] Thus it was a Navy SEAL operation that freed Danish national Poul Hagen and American Jessica Buchanan who were held captive by Somalia terrorists in January, 2012. Now, just in time to capitalize on this new-found fame, Act of Valor, a Hollywood-produced film opens February 24. Featuring actual active-duty Navy SEALs, Act of Valor is the type of action movie that puts to shame the Sylvester Stallone/ Chuck Norris/ Arnold Schwarzenegger super-hero caricatures from the 1980s. These SEALs are the real deal, who risk their lives in thankless missions around the world and dont get to utter a quotable one-liner before they dispatch the villain. The plot of the movie will be of great interest to VDARE.com readers. Muslim terrorists cross our poorly-defended Mexican border to launch attacks on US cities. Cue the Navy SEALs to stop them. [Review: 'Act of Valor' an awed ode to Navy SEALs, By Jake Coyle, AP, Thursday, February 23, 2012] In reality, of course, although our southern border is certainly an easy entry point, neither Obama nor any other US President is likely to send any military unit (let alone the SEALs) to protect our interests. After all, these illegal aliens represent future votes for the Democratic Partyand cheap labor for the Big Business donors to the Republican Party. But there is a problem. Unfortunately for President Obama, in wrapping himself in the SEALs mantle, he is embracing perhaps the whitest unit in all of the U.S. military. Edging out fighter pilots, the members of the Navy SEALSand, for that matter, all U.S. Special Forces Unitsare the most embarrassingly white group of government employees in America. This phenomenon, which of course is the inevitable result of the militarys reliance on objective testing, has been attracting liberal lamentation for years: When a military mission requires stealth, speed, unconventional methods or political sensitivity, the Pentagon often assigns the job to its most elite fighting forces -- Army Special Forces and Rangers, Navy SEALs and Air Force air commandos. These special-operations forces are the best-trained units in Americas arsenal. Using guns, knives and explosives is second nature. All are experienced paratroopers. Many speak a foreign language. And nearly all are white Blacks, Latinos, Asians, American Indians and other minorities now make up 34 percent of the military, greater than the 28.5 percent minority representation within the general U.S. population. But the picture is very different in elite units. Only 13 percent of the Pentagons highly trained special-operations forces are racial minorities. Of the 8,775 Army, Navy and Air Force commandos, 1,180 are classified as minorities. Less than 15 percent of the Armys Special Forces and Rangers personnel are soldiers of color, compared with about 40 percent of the entire Army. About 11 percent of Navy SEALs, whose headquarters are in Coronado, are minorities. "We are underrepresented (with minorities) compared to what wed like," acknowledged Rear Adm. Eric Olson, the Navys top SEAL. Eight percent of the Air Forces special-tactics and pararescue groups, the militarys smallest commando force, are minority members. The greatest disparity appears in the ranks of black servicemen. The Army Special Forces, known by distinctive green berets, has 234 African-American officers and soldiers in a force of 5,200 men. Blacks make up 4.5 percent of the Green Berets, compared with nearly 24 percent of the male soldiers in the Army. The Navy has only 31 blacks among its 2,299 Sea-Air-Land, or SEAL, commandos, less than 2 percent of the force. African-Americans constitute nearly 17 percent of the male personnel within the Navy. And, the Air Forces special-tactics groups have only eight blacks in a force of 472 men, less than 2 percent. Servicewide, about 14 percent of the Air Forces male personnel are African-American.[Closed Ranks? The Color of Commandos: Part One, By James W. Crawley, San Diego Union-Tribune, September 17, 2000] Thankfully, under the Obama Administration, this scandalous situation is now being addressed, according to a Military Times story by a female Hispanic reporter: The Naval Special Warfare Center is embarking on new marketing and awareness campaigns to reach more minority candidates who have the best odds of becoming Navy SEALs in the hope that those efforts will diversity the commando force. The campaign is the latest move by Naval Special Warfare Command to boost its recruitment of minorities, particularly African-Americans, to attend the Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL course and follow-on SEAL Qualification Training and join the all-male community of special operators one that historically has been largely white. Navy SEAL training is considered among the toughest in the military, with attrition rates from BUD/S average roughly 75 percent. But efforts in recent years, including an expanded recruitment effort and retooled preparatory course at the Naval Training Center in Great Lakes, Ill., are showing signs of easing attrition of potential SEAL and special warfare combatant-craft crewman candidates. However, overall minority numbers still remain short of existing goals, and minority representation within NSWs officer and enlisted communities remains much lower than what is reflected in the U.S. population. Roughly 12.5 percent of the U.S. population is black, a number expected to rise to 13 percent by 2040, according to U.S. Census predictions. But only 10 percent of SEAL officers are minorities with blacks representing 2 percent of officers and minorities make up less than 20 percent of enlisted special warfare operators, according to a May contract solicitation for the pilot marketing and outreach program. The latest plan comes as top military leaders including Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Gary Roughead and Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and a former CNO have spoken publicly about the importance of diversifying the military for the next generation, with diversity targets set for 2037. Navy SEALs seek minority candidates, By Gidget Fuentes, Military Times, November 8, 2010 Such is the desire to increase minorityprimarily blackparticipation in the SEALs that the Navy actually awarded a Wayne State School of Business advertising class a prize for the best marketing plan for increasing diversity. The Navy SEALs awarded an advertising media planning class at Wayne State Universitys School of Business Administration with its 2011 Scouting Project Scholastic Achievement Award. Five studentsSara Grout, Angela Selph, Mark Stewart, Rodney Jennings and Joshua Wilde traveled to San Diego, Calif., Wednesday to present their winning marketing campaign to the SEALs.[ Wayne State School of Business advertising class wins Navy SEALs award for marketing campaign, December 21, 2011] The Navy SEALs aren't the only fighting force that our Pentagon has targeted for diversification. The US Marines are also too white. [Marines push for greater diversity, By Gretel C. Kovach, August 2, 2011] The US Coast Guard Academy decided to enact policies that actively discriminate against white male applicants. [Coast Guard acts quickly on diversity, but not without implementation problems, By Joe Davidson, Washington Post, April 28, 2010] The US Naval Academy has decided lowering standards to increase minority enrollment is a greater objective than recruiting the best midshipman. [Dumbing-Down the U.S. Navy A National Disgrace, By Pat Buchanan, July 6, 2009] Becoming a Navy SEAL is perhaps the ultimate expression of manliness left in America. Thus Naval Academy fullback Alexander Teich , who ran for more than 100 yards against the University of South Carolinaa team filled with future NFL players), chose to accept offer to be one of just 28 new SEALs to come out of the academy. [Teich, the future Navy SEAL, might make you forget how sordid college sports have become, By Peter Schmuck, Baltimore Sun, November 30, 2011] Thus in August, 22 Navy SEALs were aboard a Chinook transport helicopter that was shot down in Afghanistan. Eight more members of the Armed Forces died with them. [The 30 U.S. Military Personnel In Chinook Shot Down, Denver Post, August 12, 2011 ] This is why Act of Valor is being so heavily marketed to men 18-35, with commercials and promos playing upon the well-deserved reputation of supreme bad-assness the SEALs have built. Currently, any member of the Navy SEALs deserves respect and gratitude. They went through hell to attain the right to be called a SEAL. Through merit alone, they attained this honor. http://www.vdare.com/articles/act-o...bama-imposes-affirmative-action-on-navy-seals
Ex-Seal team member says Obama misusin' Special Operations... SEAL Team 6 vet: What price Obama policies? 27 July`12 - 'We have a commander-in-chief to takes credit for heroic actions of others for political gain' See also: Special Operations forces risk being overused, misused, former chief says July 27th, 2012 : The use of military Special Operations Forces has been a proven success in Iraq, Afghanistan and - with last year's raid on Osama bin Laden's compound - in Pakistan, but that success has some people concerned. Will the forces become the tool of choice for a president?
The Navy Seals are elite because they only accept based on ability and since White males have the all the advantages they will most likely make up the team. With affirmative action if there is one minority, a homosexual, black, or woman there it would handicap them but its nothing they can't handle because after all look at their missions as of late? Intercepting Osama? He's nothing more than a cave dweller living in a mexican mud hut. The US hasn't been challenged since Russia so it can afford to institute affirmative action policies to allow those with inferior abilities to join.
I bet the Chinese military are laughing their head off at this absurd nonsense. North Europeans have always made the best soldiers throughout history. Why doesn't this clown Obama just replace the Navy SEALS with a tribe of African pygmies led by a Chinese lesbian in a wheelchair and be done with it?
Zinke's a republicon. If he saw Obama walking on water he would ridicule him for not knowing how to swim. I'll wait for someone who is not running a campaign money laundry to raise a legitimate objection. We have no business intervening like that in Syria. Too costly and not our (*)(*)(*)(*) business. It would endanger our operations in Iraq. That is more important right now. We can't just take unilateral actions when we feel like it just because we think we're "special."
I should point out that people who are aware of what a bunch of racist morons the people who front VDARE are consider them to be about as reliable a referrence as The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion.
They are a far more reliable and honest reference than the racist Jewish supremacist Zionist paid and owned mainstream media.
Is that supposed to be funny? They are a bunch of academics who advocate immigration reform. What terrorist acts are they connected to? The AIPAC run US Army and its organ the bought and paid for "mainstream" media are the only operational terrorist organizations in the US today.
Bull flops. They are what the late dungball William Pierce called "legals." They are white nationalists who call themselves "patriots" and stir up sentiment against ethnic minorities.
So anyone that advocates a conservative immigration policy is secretly trying to incite terrorist acts against minorities? Smells like hysterical slanderous rhetoric to me. Are the countless people in China and India who also advocate (and practice) immigration controls trying to secretly incite violence too, or does your "logic" only apply to white people?
The dung balls at VDARE want to maintain white dominance in America regardless the imposition on people who don't give a rat's about their idiotic racial purity theories. The scumbags are just going to have to live with the fact that America is turning mocha. VDARE lends support to the morons who want to start the RaHoWa to reverse the natural course of evolution.
All lies. You say white genocide is "natural". But why do you not support Chinese genocide? Why do you attack whites who want to maintain their heritage and culture, but not others who are doing so? You just hate white people. Why do you lie that defending your nation as every country does is some kind of "racial holy war" when white people do it? Why do you call these white people "morons"? It's transparently obvious that you just hate white people. You are the worst kind of traitor.
No, I did not. Race-mixing is natural. It is not natural to insist on racial purity. It is learned behavior, learned from dimbulbs with power at that. I do not excuse it from any race. White people have no inherent claim over this country. Those who think they have are blithering idiots. You have no right to stolen property. Is this too much for the mind of a racist to encompass?
I live in the UK clown. If you feel that way why not do us all a favor. Give your house to a Native American and go jump in a lake.
One branch of my family is native American. What I want for this country takes precedence over what (*)(*)(*)(*) wads like VDARE want.
I think this just goes to show that different races often tend to prefer being amongst their own. The reason the SEALS have such a high percentage of white people probably has much more to do with the preferences of the people who enlist into the military. Why is it that when the progressives see different groups of people choosing to naturally separate out, they feel like they have to artificially mix them up? "Diversify" the SEALS, and the organisation will become less attractive to many potential white recruits in the future. How many willing enlistees has the US military lost out on because of the racial integration of its armed forces in the 1960s?
So is racial segregation. When a liberal looks at this picture, the first thought that comes into their mind is the red ants helping the black ant; they are unable to see anything different.
It looks like its helping the black ant by euthanizing it, then recycling those resources to help their own family.
