Michael Flynn - War Lover

"Most Americans mistakenly believe that peace is the normal condition of mankind, while war is some weird aberration. Actually, it's the other way around. Most of human history has to do with war, and preparations for the next one. But we Americans do not prepare for the next war, are invariably surprised when it erupts, and, since we did not take prudent steps when it would have been relatively simple to prevail, usually end up fighting on our enemies' more difficult and costly terms."

“Compared to war, all other forms of human endeavor shrink to insignificance. God help me, I do love it so.”
― George S. Patton Jr.

General Flynn is the tip of his own personal spear, unfortunately the greater spear of the entire DOD is in his hands and he wants to throw it.
