Just how stupid is our military?

This one, from a NYT article, came from some new directives being given to our troops. It blew me away:

"In the Afghan culture, a man's home is more than just his residence," a draft of the new guidance said. "It represents his family, and protecting it is closely intertwined with his honor. He has been conditioned to respond aggressively whenever he perceives his home or honor is threatened.


And here in the USA, if armed foreigners show up at our doors, the passive and overly nice and reasonable American man would say "come on in!"

Jebesus, how did so many stupid people get into our military and then become Generals?
