Millions of our generation, I truly believe, gained their “understanding” of modern war from Star Trek and similar shows. Why not have women on the Enterprise? The enemy never captures a starship, and then rapes and enslaves the women. They just shake the camera a little, the officers on the bridge pretend to be jostled, and another victory is chalked up.
And, God help us, even Freepers seem to have bought this fantasy brainwash.
A real war is going to be totally shocking and demoralizing to the nation. I mean on the scale of our near-rout in 1950 in Korea, not merely playing whack a mole with the taliban and such. In a real war, the Battle of Fallujah would just be the third combat story on an average day.
Imagine our PC military, full of open homosexuals and young girls, going into combat in Normandy or Okinawa.
Oh, wait, I forgot. “We're never going to have that kind of war again.”
Somebody had better inform the Chinese, the Iranians, etc.
I really, really hope you are wrong. I fear you are right.
There are more than a few here who would do well to well-consider what you say.
Yeah, that's gonna be one brutal wake up call, and the social engineering architects will be nowhere to be found. But then, this whole feminization and homosexualization of our military is nested in the larger effort of the de-construct of Judeo-Christian western civilization.
As I recall, it took several years to lose 2000 men in Iraq.
At Omaha Beach, we lost nearly that many in the first half-hour.
On the opening day of the Battle of the Somme, the British lost ten times that many before noon.
