We need homosexuals to fill our recruitment needs. In fact, allowing homosexuals in the military will reduce the amount of reenlistment as many in the military don't want to shower, room or share a foxhole with someone that might have an unwanted sexual attraction to them.

Thank you for helping make my point. The Army is more concerned about gays than it is about radical jihadis in the ranks. If Hasan had said he way gay, he'd have been given the boot immediately. Instead, he told anyone who would listen that he would not fight fellow Muslims, sympathized with the Jihadis, yada, yada, yada and the Army did nothing. I'll bet all the homophobes here would go ballistic if a queer was allowed to stay in the Army for one day.

Anyone who equates homosexuality and radical Islam is an idiot. The overwheleming majority of AIDS cases in the world are in sub Saharan Africa, where homosexuality is rare. Cultural traditions are largely to blame for the rapid spread of AIDS in Africa as you can read here.
