Told to look away: "It's their culture."
Showcasing the honor of American soldiers in what is otherwise a harrowing report issued by The New York Times, U.S. military members are facing discipline for refusing to obey orders of turning a blind eye to Afghan "allies" who are keeping young boys as sex slaves.
Bacha bazi, translated literally as "boy play," is considered the norm among Afghan police officers in the region. The practice has even been brazenly carried out on military bases. These "allies," Afghani militia men organized to fight the Taliban, are armed and set in charge as commanders in villages and remain unfettered in their pursuits. But because bacha bazi is a cultural staple, Marines and other American soldiers "have been instructed not to intervene," according to the NYT.
Dan Quinn is one of those featured in the report. He left the military after being "relieved of his command" as Army captain in Afghanistan for beating down "an American-backed militia commander for keeping a boy chained to his bed as a sex slave" in 2011. He told the paper:
The reason we were here is because we heard the terrible things the Taliban were doing to people, how they were taking away human rights. But we were putting people into power who would do things that were worse than the Taliban did — that was something village elders voiced to me.
Other soldiers have faced similar outcomes. In fact, assisting Quinn in the physical altercation meant to protect the young boy was Sgt. First Class Charles Martland. Because he also ignored orders to look the other way, the Army opened a court case to force his retirement.
But for one, the outcome was much worse.
Lance Cpl. Gregory Buckley, Jr., along with two other Marines, was shot and killed at his base in 2012 by a 17-year-old boy brought in as a slave of an abusive Afghan commander. Repeated warnings of what was happening over several weeks, along with the knowledge of this commander's past grievances, were ignored by officials. As a result, the boy grabbed a rifle and killed three American soldiers.
During his last call home, Buckley told his father, "At night we can hear [the boys] screaming, but we’re not allowed to do anything about it."
Buckley's father believes his son was executed because the boy viewed the Marines as guilty by association. “They don’t know our Marines are sick to their stomachs,” the father added. "My son said that his officers told him to look the other way because it's their culture."
A former Marine speaking on condition of anonymity told the NYT, "The bigger picture was fighting the Taliban. It wasn't to stop molestation."
Col. Brian Tribus, a spokesman for the American command in Afghanistan, is quoted in the report giving a defense of the military's official position:
“Generally, allegations of child sexual abuse by Afghan military or police personnel would be a matter of domestic Afghan criminal law.” He added that “there would be no express requirement that U.S. military personnel in Afghanistan report it.” An exception, he said, is when rape is being used as a weapon of war.
The American policy of nonintervention is intended to maintain good relations with the Afghan police and militia units the United States has trained to fight the Taliban. It also reflects a reluctance to impose cultural values in a country where pederasty is rife, particularly among powerful men, for whom being surrounded by young teenagers can be a mark of social status.

Afraid so.
“All muslims are homosexual”
That is what I’ve heard.
This is truly sickening
If the American military high command turns their backs to injustice carried out by Muslims abroad, be prepared for them to follow a Marxist and carry out injustice to Americans at home.
Islam is sick.
“Our guys in uniform report to a greater figure than their commanding officers in situations like this.”
Absolutely. Well said.
I wouldn’t obey that order either. You want me to ignore grown men raping boys? Then you’d better replace me with a robot.
Heads need to roll for this, but none will. Obama and his faggot SA will sweep this under the rug.
What the heck? We’re there to protect drug-dealers and pedophiles? The whole country isn’t worth one American life.
GOOD. Some people take their sworn oaths seriously.
Shame on Obama’s officers, ordering soldiers and Marines to turn a blind eye to pedo boy rape? They should be fragged along with the 12th Century faggots. We don’t need “allies” like that. The enemy of your enemy is not always your friend.
M4L sodomites
This is easy to explain ...
BARRACK HUSSEIN OBAMA IS A COCAINE SNORTING SODOMITE!
He has flooded our government with flaming faggots at every level ...
He has flooded all branched of the military services with flaming faggots and transvestites ...
He has packed the Court (pun intended) with sodomite enabling enforcers ...
If Obama has his way, the age of consent will be first lowered and then done away with ....
He will empower pederasts and pedophiles because he is under the Spirit of the Antichrist. He will not stop until he turns all of America in Sodom & Gomorrah, so to reflect his own debauched mind.
He not only hates America, he despises the humanity of the individual, as much as he despises Christianity, which is why he works every end to debase the culture and destroy the family.
Look at the way in which evil has accelerated under his watch and guidance - not only in America, but across the globe. Obama empowers evil whenever and wherever he may gain the opportunity to affect its advance. He has NO redeeming qualities, absolutely not one - he is evil incarnate, on a level equal to Hitler or Stalin. Give him time, and he will be marching Christians, Jews, and any who oppose him, into the camps - then to the ovens. He knows his time is short, so he will do more damage between now and Jan 2017 then he has wreaked in his previous six years in power. Bet on it.
There is no one in our present government having the principles or the courage to stop him.
He will totally destroy our military by inciting moral rot, driving out the good soldiers and officers. Then he will use this corrupt homosexual force against the American people - just as did Hitler and his Pink Swastika Reich
Why not? He too is a d*ck-smoking turd-burglaring butt pirate - just like his boss.
true words....well said
There is no hope to changer or reform these despicable people in Afghanistan .
We are only there because people like Senator Feinsteins husband is making lots of money supplying this war .
What we should have done is nuked Tora Bora and gotten the hell out .
Western logic does not work in islamic countries and this one is especially degenerate
You can not teach these savages to be civil without teaching them Christianity and there is no way the left in this country will allow that
Agree. He has infiltrated every level. Turning our school children into modern day janissaries, by corrupting our textbooks and PC culture...
Wake Up, America. Wake Up !
No wonder the moes love the moes!
One can easily assume the order came directly from the White Mosk.
You have a very good grasp of the history behind the demonic movement.
If only the German aristocracy had the skill and the will, WWII might not have occurred. Several well-placed snipers could have affected a cure to Nazism in less than 60 seconds. The same could be stated of America’s present dark hour.
But perhaps irony will have its due ...
Iran could have a working nuclear device much sooner than anticipated by the inept fools now occupying the incorrigibly perverted halls of the District of Corruption ...
Iran might be so bold as to place their “gadget” atop a Russian ICBM ...
In fact, the Iranian Mullahs may be sufficiently deranged to launch and deliver the package, promptly and on target, during the next SOTU speech ...
Of course, this act would be a suicidal, since the U.S. would promptly obliterate the entire country in a retaliatory nuclear strike.
However, a 200 megaton device, detonated at approximately 3000 feet altitude above the WH, would be an ironic act of poetic justice upon the cabal of consummate evil that is responsible for so much misery here and abroad. Obama would thus get his 72 virgins - all young boys, of course.
HOW screwed up must you be to survive and grow up in an environment such as that...
An Adult male Afgan must be surely is a MONSTER to have survived it..
ALL OF THEM.. just turning your head over and over again even if you don’t do it.. could addle your brain..
AND the women are on an even LOWER tier of respect..
AND THIS is just the start of it.. it actually gets worse..
WHY they mutilate the women’s sexual organs would disgust you..
I refuse to even go there.. in this company..
