More and more militaries around the world are allowing homosexuals in and discovering that they're very capable, stable, smart, and strong soldiers, even better than the unqualified criminals and dropouts the U.S. military currently prefers.
Yes, I do. If you are trying to create an atmosphere in which US forces, SF in particular, in OIF and OEF-A and even OEF-P would be more acceptable to Muslims you have to adapt. Sharia law forbids homosexuality and you are not going to go up to the tribal chieftain outside Waziristan with a bright smile and stating OMG you are Fabulous!!! No, you have to either adapt to the sit on the field or get the hell out of the way. |
I'm talking about translators. Who speak the language of the area we've been occupying. They can actually translate enemy messages, which can save American lives. Over 50 of them were fired before 9/11. Maybe they could have helped us know what the enemy was up to?
And we don't have to follow Sharia law to invade and occupy a country that does. We don't need to treat our gays the way they treat their gays, just to "look acceptable." Should we treat our women the way they treat theirs? I guess we shouldn't have female soldiers either.
