white house imposes rules of engagement upon our men and women fighting in iraq, now syria, and in afghanistan. those rules of engagement make it harder for them to accomplish their mission and in some cases it increases the danger to their lives. in addition to that there is an unprecedented degree of micromanagement from national security council staffers not only of the top management at dod but of the men and women who are serving out in the field. i'd refer you to the books and comments of the last three secretaries of defense and others who have left the obama administration just to get a feel for how pervasive and detrimental this practice is. too often decisions are driven by political considerations, not security considerations. this unprecedented overreach endangers our people, complicates our commissimission compromises our national security. congress chartered the national security council in 1947. from time to time over the years it has adjusted it. well, it may be time to look at it again. i said earlier that the united states is a unique force for good in the world.
