If the biased, agenda-driven press in this country hyper-focused on the captured females in the US armed forces who were raped by Iraqis during the Gulf War, in the same way they typically hyper-focus on their usual pet-causes, (like gun-control or the dangers of trans-fats, global warming and football.) we would not even be contemplating the idea of women in combat.

 

 

Like any military, the longer we sit at peace, the worse we get.

 

And we ARE at peace, when the only conflicts we're in are ones of our choosing from which we can exit at any time with no risk whatsoever to our country.  What we're in...well, call them 'hobby wars'.

 

You think what the insurgents did to the 'security contractors' in Fallujah was bad?

 

Wait until the videos hit the net of what they do to female prisoners.
