even though there is a lot of bleeped swearing in this video of army special forces major, jim gant, and even though I am NOT trying to somehow `justify` warfare ( as in, ``JUST-WAR THEORY``), or glorify special operations personnel ( the way that SEALs and green berets are glorified on T.V. media platforms, such as THE MILITARY CHANNEL)....... IN MY OPINION, army special forces major, jim gant, once called a hero, and now defrocked in disgrace by the [ generals and admirals] who may, ultimately, lose both wars for us..... this same jim gant understood and practiced the relationship-building with afghan and Iraqi tribes, that WOULD HAVE won us both wars, from the beginning..... and those same army administrators who have accused this decorated green beret officer of ``GOING COLONEL KURTZ`` ( from ``apocalypse now``), have destroyed one of America`s best chances of making true-hearted afghan and Iraqi allies, and building the kind of trust that would not instantly evaporate the second the Taliban accused us of [ Koran-burning].......
