On DAF
•
by Legendardisch
Recently there has been a debate on the forums about replacing the current DAF Commander, Weekstrom, but he has denied the wishes of the legitmate president due to reasons like making the MU political.
On the feed theres a small storm brewing and I would like to say a few things
1: DAF is a State MU
2: The MoD and CP are the boss above the Commander
3: If the CP wants to replace the commander, that is in his right
4: Claiming that this way the STATE MU will be POLITICAL is wrong
5: You as commander refusing to follow orders and make a sh*tshow out of it ALREADY MAKES IS POLITICAL
in short, Weekstrom is the one who made DAF political.
If you are told to do something by your superior then you do it, you have nothing to demand from him. Weekstrom was good once but he has on multiple occasions not followed orders, that makes him unfit for this position, how hard that may be to understand.
So no, dont leave DAF, because DAF is not made by Weekstrom.

Following your "example" odan helped eGermany in some important battles against our allies and eNetherlands. He's not a mastermind!! and I support the current DAF commander than a random player (inactive I must say) as new one
Tim is a respected player in our community.
lol
WTH when? who? why?
lol
Btw is the congress who decide not the CP, it's called "DEMOCRACY" something you guys claimed when ArcanicMindJe was running for CP, so funny how this community forget their claims when they want something contrary to what they have defended in the past, double standards all the time, it's a shame
DAF is ruled by the Government AKA the CP and MoD. If you dont have anything usefull to add dont say anything at all. and quit pulling peripheral issues in your arguments it makes you look weak. oh wait.
Since when the CP controls everything? Congress overrules every decision of the government, never forget that, it's called DEMOCRACY
Just because switzerland works that way doesnt mean its like it everywhere else. but whatever, not going to continue with you
Every democracy works like that, what the fuck
Firstly this is debatable. The CP is the supreme commander of the Dutch Armed Forces and is in command of the organisation of DAF. But in the end you are right. Congress overrules every decision of the government. The question is now, will congress overrule this decision of the government?
We should!!, clearly the CP is acting by his own in this subject when the members of DAF aren't agree. "United we satnd, divided we fall..." now tell me: Is odan doing a good work rejecting what the majority wants for DAF?
In fact the majority of congress agreed with the government that Weekstrom is violating the law by not listening to the government. However there are some new perspectives and insights so maybe congress will vote again on a better proposal which will give clarity on the interpretation of the laws.
A decision like this should be sufficient to determine whether the government is in it's right to replace Weekstrom or if Weekstrom will be replaced.
We are DAF! No matter what happens, no matter who is our commander, we, the soldiers, we are the Dutch Armed Forces!!! United we stand, divided we fall..
Its mutiny by Weekstrom. Very very sad....
Maakt deze president er soms een potje van ?
Nee. President is opperbevelhebber van de strijdkrachten en daar valt de staats mu onder. De president heeft alle recht om de commandeur te vervangen voor welke reden dan ook. Weekstrom is een moeilijk persoon, koppig en vaak negeert hij directe bevelen. Zoals nu. Op alle gronden oprecht weekstrom muiterij. Geloof me DAF zal nooit politiek worden maar weekstrom heeft het daar zelf naar gemaakt om niet de wensen van zijn bevelhebber te volgen.
-VOTED-
Totally agree with you. The next President may choose to Weekstrom is the commander again if he wishes so, but the current CP needs another commander and that decision must be respected.
DAF has no owner, DAF belongs to us all and should be respected the decison of the current CP. we agree or not, we like it or not.
There was only 1 CP candidate and half the erep comm does not really like him. Ofcourse you get mutany , and problems !
If no one else decided to run for CP, is not the fault of Odan
Odan is rightfully our president whether you like it or not! He is the superior to DAF command and his orders are to be executed. DAF is owned and funded by the state and not weekstrom, he damn well knows that. In every other eRep country this is NOT a problem. Again DAF is not a PRIVATE MU. but a STATE MU.
Als je als president maar de steun van een beperkt deel van de bevolking hebt, moet je daar m.i. wel rekening mee houden. Dan moet je geen controversiële beslissingen nemen. Overigens kan Odan er inderdaad niets aan doen dat hij geen tegenkandidaten had. Dat is jammer genoeg ...
