why dont you stand up for NATO, as a retired military man?

Hi Jim,
Long time no see.
I don't understand that question. I have always been an advocate for NATO. It is the UN that has become nearly useless imo.

not a single thing about this war is going as planned

Should be no surprise there. That is the nature of the beast...Always has been.

do you really think no officers, no majors, no generals gave orders "to do anything to get them to talk" ???

I was among those (if not the first) to point out that the leap from Buck Sergeant to 2 Star general to Asst SecDef was out of whack. I said the chain of command does not function that way. There are too too many holes that must be filled. I also said our military is has the tools and is very well organized to handle this...and they are getting the job done quite well so far.

We are close....just not perfectly aligned.
:o)
