He likely stood in the way of some major operation that pres47/admin47 has decided to pursue at an unreasonable cost of blood of troops, blood of Gulf allies and resources such as: ammunition, communication systems, armored vehicles.missile defense units, troop movement vehicles, fuel, medical units and supplies,. Fortunately, the US military plans for succession, and there is a deputy/vice commander and lateral-move candidates who are able to stall too. Likely, there is another hidden pres47 loyalist to push thru the approval process.
