People in the US are ready to defend the county but do not see evidence of the US government doing that with the military, says Ret. Col. Douglas MacGregor
The US military is struggling to recruit new soldiers due to concerns about the United States’ policy of foreign intervention in recent decades, retired US Army Colonel Douglas MacGregor said in an interview with journalist Tucker Carlson.
“We’re having problems recruiting for a very simple reason: people that have been through this over the last 20-30 years have said, ‘What are we doing? What’s the point of being in the military?’ We go to these places. They look around in Iraq or they look around in Afghanistan and they say, ‘There’s nothing here. What am I doing here?’ Oh, well, you’re building democracy. And people burst out laughing. It’s nonsense,” MacGregor said in the interview, released Monday.
People in the US are ready to defend the county but do not see evidence of the US government doing that with the military, MacGregor said.
Defending countries in the Middle East or Ukraine is not what soldiers sign up for, MacGregor said.
