Lawfare is destroying the SAS

pecial Air Service (SAS) soldiers are resigning in significant numbers over fears they will be subjected to "witch hunts" by human rights lawyers.

Several sources have claimed that soldiers from 22 SAS, the Army's most elite fighting force, have applied for premature voluntary release.

The Telegraph is withholding the exact figure for security reasons, but at least two squadrons, D and G, are believed to have been affected. Several SAS sources described the losses as significant and a "threat to national security".

Insiders say the resignations have been driven by outrage over recent war crime investigations into Afghanistan and Syria, which have been described as "witch hunts".

The treatment of elderly Northern Ireland veterans who served in the SAS has also contributed, insiders say. They are viewed as having been hounded through the courts on vexatious claims, some of which have been described as "ludicrous" by a judge.

Among those understood to have resigned are several senior warrant officers, who are the backbone of the special forces and among the most experienced troops in the regiment. A number are understood to have applied for release "on principle" just before Christmas.

"Morale is s--- at the moment," one insider with knowledge of the recent losses said, while another said there was "considerable disquiet" in the regiment as a result.

You are really Hooked on NPR.

In March alone, Galvin's center took on more than 80 new clients — almost twice as many as it takes on in an average year. The busiest single day saw 12 new clients join, with one person saying four other members of their platoon were also interested.

Those numbers are a drop in the bucket when compared with the more than 1.3 million people enlisted. But for outside observers and former military officials, those calls and conversations are an indication of a troubling disquiet within the ranks.

NPR fishing for scandals as usual.


The real numbers tell the truth. the last couple of the years are the first time in years that the armed forces
have been able to fill their recruitment goals.

Nope.

With the crap you post here almost daily, and your inability to distinguish news pieces from opinion, you are not qualified to make judgments on media sources.

Talking of Twatt errrr....

We also forgot to mention the use of the word "Lawfare," a term most commonly used by nutters to explain away successful legal actions taken against criminals who happen to be on the same team.

When lawyers and politicians that have never had put their lives on the line for anything, and their worst injury was probably nothing more than a paper cut can't convince the military brass that they should prosecute rough men who stand ready to defend us and our way of life, they find ways to bring the rough men to court. They find solace with  morons that see self defense as a war crime.  We have plenty of those idiots here in the states. There's a couple of those morons here in this forum.

Those lawyers and the politicians that support them are scum of the earth and should be eradicated.

Semper fi, Nutboy. Semper fi.

It seems you spend a lot of time thinking about "rough" men.
