Note To General Petraeus,
Make sure this video is flooded to each and every pro Taliban, Al Qaeda, Hezbollah, Iranian Revolutionary Guards and Somali Pirate sites that are being monitored by the DOD.
I can think of no worse PSYOPS weapon than letting the strutting crazies that despise everything about our country (I meant the terrorists, not the Obama Administration) see this video and understand that these are the soldiers that beat them on the battlefield at every turn.
Fanatics like the Taliban won’t understand it, they will view it as soft, passive and a sign of our decadence. They don’t get that one weapon that the US and some of our better Allies possess and that they can not counter is our sense of humor. The humor in many ways defines who we are and outside the box we tend to be.
It took the Germans several years in World War 2 to understand that American soldiers may seem undisciplined and lax, but we are un predictable, flexible and innovative. Several key German Generals commented that it was the hardest aspect for them to defend against, our un predictability.
Now, on a strategic level, many of the reasons that our enemies can stay in the fight is because they understand that politically we are predictable and if they have patience, they can outlast us.
Thats what makes this video spoof a great combat force multiplier. Enemies like the Taliban and Al Qaeda cannot understand that these very same Airborne Troopers will be hunting them down tomorrow, after choreographic their next dance video the night before.
