WSJ has the piece, here.
If Donald Trump brings this man aboard - in any post - he will prove to the hardest Right that he is serious. He's being considered for SecDef - I say put him at State. Watch the world calm right the fcuk down...
Anyone who doesn't grasp that simple concept has no business commenting on politics or breeding.
A few Mattis quotes:
The first time you blow someone away is not an insignificant event. That said, there are some assholes in the world that just need to be shot.
I come in peace. I didn’t bring artillery. But I’m pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you fuck with me, I’ll kill you all.
Find the enemy that wants to end this experiment (in American democracy) and kill every one of them until they’re so sick of the killing that they leave us and our freedoms intact.
Be polite, be professional, but have a plan to kill everybody you meet.
No war is over until the enemy says it’s over. We may think it over, we may declare it over, but in fact, the enemy gets a vote.
I’m going to plead with you, do not cross us. Because if you do, the survivors will write about what we do here for 10,000 years.
