What can you say about the men in a society that sends women to fight its wars?
The temptation is to call them cowards. That might be too harsh (or it might not be). Whatever and whoever they are, they ought to feel shame and mortification when they look upon the photographs of Shoshana Johnson, a 30-year-old single mother of a 2-year-old daughter, languishing in an Iraqi prison. We can only hope that what is probably happening to her, at the hands of men who are taught by their degraded culture and abased religion to regard women as throwaway vessels of their perversions, is not happening to her.

I didn't want women in the military. Well, they are there. They fought for it. They volunteered for it. They are there.
It makes me furious when writers lament the poor children who will never see their mothers again, then hastily add in "oh yes and of course their fathers too". Millions of men have paid the ultimate price for this nation to exist. A hell of a lot of children lost a parent long before it meant something. Most of the men who paid the ulimate penalty were of the white northern European variety who's contributions to this nation have been demoted to just above that of Jack the Ripper. Not only does the loss of their lives mean next to nothing to certain people, I have to ask myself if their proginy are receiving their bang for the buck, for the price their parent has paid.
Here we see how blatant men are discounted next to women in war, but just about everywhere else we see 67% of Americans completely ignored, no special status attached to their lives, since northern Europeans are equated with "evily" successful beyond any chance of being a wholesome righteous individual.
Yes, what sorry excuse for a man would stoop to blaming men for women attaining a goal they set for themselves, then persued until they attained it?
The writer addresses the precise number one reason why I didn't want to see women in the military. For several decades I was assured I didn't know what I was talking about. Okay, I didn't and we have finally attained perfection. And now I'm to blame for that too.
Yakov Smirnov was right. "What a country!"
Pruden is the man.
For me that last sentence said it all. Here it is: Men can coarsen and toughen women for the battlefield, making them accomplished killers. But what kind of sorry excuse for a man would want to do that to the bearers of his children?
This didn't say men in suits fella, it included you and I right in there with the suits. "How could any of us allow this?" Well I didn't allow it. I had no choice in it and this writer is simply wrong on this and several other issues raised in the article.
Let me ask this question. Do you think the suits would have driven this agenda without the radical feminist organizations pushing them to? I believe the answer to that is clear.
