You're positive that the Baathists wouldn't stoop to such lows?
Its bad policy to make policy based on hypotheticals.
Who's making policy? I just don't think that men would report it as often as women.
Generally, thats the way these things work. People do studies, they study the facts learned within those studies, and they draw conclusions. These are Pentagon studies. Rest assured new ones are being done on Gulf War II, although whether anyone wants to run with this political football is doubtful. You can be sure of one thing though, no one examining the facts gleaned discounts them because hypothetically men may not report being raped more opten than women. Hypotheticals can't be proven and make for sloppy work.
