American Army general
the American military analyst

Paul E. Vallely (born November 29, 1939) is a retired United States Army major general and former senior military analyst for Fox News. Vallely served in the Vietnam War and retired in 1991 as deputy commanding general, United States Army Pacific. In 2004, together with retired Air Force lieutenant general Thomas McInerney, he co authored the book Endgame: The Blueprint for Victory in the War on Terror. He has served as military committee chairman for the Center for Security Policy, and runs the organization Stand Up America US.

Vallely was born in DuBois, Pennsylvania, on November 29, 1939. He is married to former Marian Hatch.

Vallely graduated from West Point and was commissioned into the U. S. Army in 1961. He graduated from Infantry School, Ranger and Airborne Schools, Jumpmaster School, the Command and General Staff School, The Industrial College of the Armed Forces and the Army War College. His combat service in Vietnam included positions as infantry company commander, intelligence officer, operations officer, military adviser and aide de camp. He was later the commander of the 7th Psychological Operations Group around 1980, from his position in Hawaii as deputy commanding general, United States Army Pacific,

In 2005 Vallely founded a conservative political organization called Stand Up America US that promotes "First amendment rights, Second amendment rights, strong national defense, and secure borders, national sovereignty, support of the armed forces, individual liberties and personal responsibility, fiscally responsible, limited government." According to co founder and retired Air Force Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney, its stated purpose is to "protect America and let people understand the danger of radical Islam and the seriousness of global jihad." In 2016, the organization published "A Counterjihad Security Architecture for America", a document edited by Clare Lopez, with Vallely stating that "Counterjihad security architecture and strategies are more necessary now than ever before".

Vallely has served as the military committee chairman for the Washington, D. C. based Center for Security Policy. He has also lent his support to an organization called Veteran Defenders of America. In his letter of support he stated that "perhaps the greatest threat to our safety and liberty is the threat of radical Islam. This threat goes well beyond the threat of terrorism. Islamists, both inside and outside of America, are looking for any and every way to infiltrate and subvert our country through what is known as 'stealth jihad.' He encourages U. S. civilians (veterans) to be "eyes and ears of freedom, because we know freedom isn't free." Vallely is also a supporter of the Jerusalem Summit and an advocate of the organization's proposal to "transfer" Palestinians to surrounding Arab countries as a solution to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. He has spoken to a local chapter of ACT for America on the European refugee crisis.

In 2010 Vallely was one of three retired general officers who expressed support for U. S. Army Lt. Col. Terrance Lee Lakin in his refusal to deploy to Afghanistan based on Lakin's claim that President Barack Obama had no legitimacy as commander in chief. In an interview, Vallely stated, "I think many in the military—and many out of the military—question the natural birth status of Barack Obama." Following Vallely's announcement, retired Army Maj. Gen. Jerry Curry and Air Force Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney also expressed public support for Lakin. Vallely has also said that he "firmly believes Obama 'is a Muslim in nature'," and that "a 'civil uprising' was not 'out of the question' to stop Obama who was facilitating the rise of 'radical Islam, the caliphate, and Jihad – the slow infiltration and dismantling of our American institutions' either 'willfully, or due to sheer naiveté'." Vallely has later alleged that both versions of Obama's released birth certificate were forgeries, covered up by the FBI and Congress. In 2013, Vallely said to a Tea Party group that while he did not want to see a revolution take place, if a revolution did happen then he would be happy to lead it. He said he would agree to lead a coup against Obama if given the troops, stating that he would lead "250,000 Marines to go to Washington" and "I’ll surround the White House and I’ll surround the Capitol building".

In 1980, Vallely co authored a paper with then military PSYOP analyst Michael Aquino, founder of the Satanist Temple of Set as his commanding officer in the 7th PSYOP Group, titled From PSYOP to MindWar: The Psychology of Victory. MindWar is defined as "the deliberate aggressive convincing of all participants in a war that we will win that war." The paper contrasts a use of psychological operations such as propaganda with a new approach. In a new 2003 introduction of the paper, Aquino notes how it became a widespread subject of conspiracy theories.
