I would say he is a shoe-in based on his Israel position alone in the context of where we are (likely) on the E-T time line. |

When one our perceived major threats to ME peace and stability wants you, then we need to re-evaluate the candidate's positions (attitudes) and beliefs. We do not need a finger-always-on-the-trigger sort of Sec Def but one who is from the Neville Chamberlain School of Endless Diplomacy may not be the right guy. |

Heard a disconcerting news item today indicating Hagel may be a facilitator of an Obama thrust to rein-in our military capabilities. Hagel, as a Republican and decorated war veteran would be the face of the moves and serve to blunt GOP criticism. The President is arguably a peace at all costs guy and de-fanging the US military is a way to preclude aggressive response to threats. Like debating and coddling sociopaths such as Iranian and Syrian leaders. I say it fits nicely into so many E-T Scriptures up to and including a one-world government eventually led by the AC.
