If Admiral Bradley didn't realize before that these cowards were setting him up to take the fall, he knows it now.

If Admiral Bradley didn’t realize before that these cowards were setting him up to take the fall, he knows it now. Time to hire a good lawyer.

Bradley has a fix, testify before Congress. If Congress refuses, go public.

There are more people than Bradley who were involved in the murders, let the honest people come forward to back up Bradley if he is going to be the fall guy.

The first strikes on the boats were just as illegal as the 2nd strikes.

refused orders but still knowingly and willingly sent people to their death, Bradley faced a lot less if he just resigned when first ordered to kill people instead of stopping and arresting them as was done before. He did not. He needs to explain, if he can, what and why he did what he did. I can only pray he has a good explanation. If not, I have no sympathy.

Any minute now, Trump will say the buck stops at Admiral Bradley.
