Onlookers mystified by behavior they've witnessed commonly make the mistake of concluding:
I (the witness) don't understand it, therefore the witnessed is stupid.
It's a conclusion that's commonly wrong.
We ought not be surprised if Major Watson brought others to his protest.
Acting alone, he spares others repercussion.
Accepting a U.S. military commission, and obtaining promotions to the rank of Air Force Major usually requires skilled application of talent.
There are multiple plausible explanations for Major Watson's behavior.
Included among them, he could no longer justify sworn oath of fidelity to a madman.
Major Watson's a big boy. He can speak for himself.
The unfortunate reality is, Trump is expelling top talent from our ranks, and concentrating the dead-wood.
This is a conspicuous danger to U.S. national security. How bad?
Trump commanded the U.S. military into War against a second-rate power like Iran.
And Trump has forced himself into a stalemate, wherein he will be very lucky to
return the U.S. to the advantageous position the U.S. was in with Iran at the end of the Obama administration.
Farewell Major Watson
