Military Sensitivity

Daniel Drezner compares and contrasts the difference in treatment between German General Reinhard Guenzel, who was fired for his support of someone who made anti-Semitic remarks, and U.S. General Jerry Boykin, who’s received no discipline for his anti-Islamic remarks. I don’t know much about the former case, and I’m sure the parallels aren’t exact. But suffice it to say that the latter case illustrates that Bush isn’t going to hold anyone accountable who:

  1. tows the administration line; and/or
  2. preaches the gospel of the religious right.

That’s poor management.
