If this regime is getting that communist they have to learn from communist on the subject too.
Soviets evaluated women in every possible combat role during WWII and it proved to be a useless waste of human lives (even by communist standard!) to put them in infantry.
In fact they fond women as able warriors in air force only.
And up to this day women are banned from any Russian warship.

Funny how the Russians get it, and we don’t.

If there’s one thing we learn from history, it’s that we don’t learn from history. In particular, communists never learn from the failures of communism. They don’t just believe they are smarter than us, which is why they think they deserve to run our lives for us for our own good, they believe they’re smarter than the commies who came before them.

Hey, I saw the movie but didn’t know it was one of those docuhistory thingees. The Days of Demi are in sight.

Many traditionalists will bemoan this development as the ruination of special ops forces—but consider this:

Science has shown that women in close contact somehow seem to synchronize their menstrual cycles.

Imagine if you will a special combat team made up entirely of female Seals, all of whom are experiencing PMS at the same time. It would almost be a war crime, against all norms of civilized warfare, to send them out to unleash mayhem on hapless opposing armies of males.

A couple of last photos are actually about consequences of militant feminism vs trained male soldiers.

I have supported the military all my life. My family has served in the military in this country before it was the United States, and we have served in every war this country has ever been engaged. I, too, served in Vietnam and Gulf War 1. So what I am about to say is difficult. I would never serve in this country’s military today, nor would I encourage any of my family or friends to serve. I have mixed feelings when it comes to those now serving. I no longer feel a sense of pride, nor do I have the same level respect for those now serving that I used to have. I do not understand how they can still be a part of military.

How about trying an experiment first, All the Military academies have football teams so let us integrate the football teams with a percentage of woman that attend the school. After all it is said that Football is the closest thing to war without Death as the end result. Lets just see how many women can make it through a season. I know it will never happen because as in any sport the object is to win and any team with woman on it is at a serious disadvantage!You can't fool Mother Nature.
