Trump Unveils 20-Point \u2018Peace Plan\u2019 for Gaza<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\u201cToday, under my direction, each service will ensure that all requirements for every fighter\u2026 conform exclusively to the highest male standard\u2026 The era of politically correct, overly sensitive leadership ends right now,\u201d he said during a meeting attended by hundreds of U.S. commanders from around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The unprecedented gathering is being held at a Marine Corps base in Quantico, Virginia, amid widespread alarm over the possibility of new purges among top brass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Pentagon chief criticized the presence of \u201cfat soldiers\u201d in formations and warned that it is \u201ccompletely unacceptable\u201d and \u201clooks bad\u201d to see \u201cfat generals and admirals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
e ordered that all service members, regardless of rank, must undergo physical tests and measurements \u201ctwice a year, every year of service.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Among the 10 directives Hegseth announced are \u201cpersonal grooming standards\u201d to eliminate \u201cbeards, long hair and superficial, individual expressions,\u201d and a review of \u201cevery form of professional military education.\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI don\u2019t want my son serving alongside troops who are out of shape or in combat units with women who cannot meet the same physical combat standards as men,\u201d the U.S. War Secretary said, making clear he is unwilling to continue Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cFor too long, too many uniformed leaders have been promoted for the wrong reasons: for their race, for gender quotas and for supposed historic achievements. No more climate change. No more division, distraction, or gender delusions, no more debris. As I\u2019ve said before and I\u2019ll say again, we\u2019re done with that crap,\u201d he declared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This Army veteran has repeatedly expressed contempt for senior officials whom he accuses of injecting liberal ideology into U.S. military culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since taking office earlier this year, the War Secretary Hegseth has dismissed several generals and in May announced his intention to cut the number of four-star generals and admirals by at least 20%.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
