SOCIETY AND POWER - 12/03/2022Last year, the Department of Defense of the United States of America required all military personnel to be vaccinated against COVID-19. But not every service member complied, including one unnamed Navy warship commander who took the issue to court, saying the order violates his religious beliefs.
Last month, a judge barred the Navy from taking any disciplinary action against the commander until the issue is resolved in court. In response the US Navy temporarily took the warship out of service, claiming that the judge’s order prevents the ship from being ready for combat. Apparently the #1 priority of the US military is no longer about protecting the nation or being ready for war. With everything going on right now, they’d rather take a warship offline than risk having a single unvaccinated sailor at sea.
Russia and China must be laughing.
