He said that any country whose military is not bound by civilian contorl has a "really significant problem" He made the statement during a Q&A at an Australian National University Security conference The conference came after a major joint training exercise by the Australian and American navies which was closely watched by Chinese vessels He said "Every member of the US Military has sworn an oath to defend the constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic and to obey the officers and the president of the United States as commander in chief. This is core to the American democracy and any time you have a military that is moving away from a focus and an allegiance to civilian control, then we really have a significant problem Pacific Fleet spokesman Charlie Brown had to clarify his answer and said "The admiral was not addressing the premise of the question, he was addressing the principle of civilian authority of the military. The premise of the question was ridiculous" Do you think China is an "enemy"?

I mean, I get what he's saying; the military ultimately answers to the president, and if the president orders them to do something dumb and terrible, it's their duty to do something dumb and terrible. He wasn't saying "gee, just say the word and I'll nuke China. Please, please, let me nuke China."

Yeah, plus blanket bombing with smaller yield warheads does way more damage than single high yield bombs.

I personally don't think it was right to specify any one country, it was rather extreme speech in that regard (especially from a diplomatic perspective). He could have easily just said that those in the military have sworn to uphold an oath that they will obey the orders of those appointed over them, and that the military is ready to execute the orders of the commander-in-chief, and that would have been fine.
I don't know why he had to say "oh yeah we're just gonna start nuking people". ... Copied to Clipboard!
