Army Discharges War Hero Who Blew Whistle on Afghan Rape (Soldiers Raping BOYS)
WASHINGTON Beacon ^ | September 24,2015 | Morgan Chalifant

Posted on 09/24/2015 6:31:48 PM PDT by lbryce

Rep. Vern Buchanan (R., Fla.) is demanding that the decorated Green Beret who blew the whistle on U.S.-allied Afghan forces raping boys be reinstated by the Army immediately.

Buchanan labeled war hero Sgt. 1st Class Charles Martland’s dismissal from the force a “national disgrace.” Martland stood up for an Afghan rape victim in 2011.

“Driving Sgt. Martland out of the Army is a national disgrace,” Buchanan said in a statement. “He stood up for American values and should be commended, not punished.”

This week, reports surfaced that U.S. soldiers and Marines have been instructed to ignore suspicions of Afghan forces raping boys. While Martland appealed his dismissal from the Army, he was rejected this week. He will be discharged at the start of November.

Buchanan called on the Army Board for Correction of Military Records to reverse its decision and reinstate Martland. Otherwise, he demanded that either Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Martin Dempsey or President Obama take action.

“The only people who should be punished and discharged from the service are the ones who created and condoned the immoral practice of ignoring child rape on a U.S. military base,” Buchanan said.

Earlier this week, the Republican congressman also demanded the House and Senate Armed Services Committees launch investigations into the alleged policy that discourages troops from reporting sexual abuse of boys at the hand of Afghan forces.

The distinction between raping boys rather than girls makes all the difference in the world. Had these soldiers been raping girls with Sgt. Hartland turning these culprits in, he would not have suffered any consequences. It's just that he turned in soldiers raping boys which incurred the wrath of our own RIC (Rapist in Chief) who couldn't tolerate what was being done to his very own objects of desire.

Keeping Hasan alive, disgusting.

On and on it goes because of the First Moslem pRes_ _ent.

Civilian control of the military is highly overrated.

Especially when the the civilians “in charge” of the military are perverted degenerate monsters.

Times are changing.

Obama doesn’t see anything wrong with grown men forcibly sodomizing young boys.

Those boys will learn to live with it just like he did.

A faggotized armed services, a homosex-promoting White House and state department, a culture that worships perversion and deviancy... a country that now legally and morally regards two homo pervs as the same as a husband-and-wife.

So hardly a surprise, that we now also live in an America that not only turns the other way in the face of “boy rape,” but even punishes any service-member who dares to try putting a stop to it.

Makes me want to vomit, the depths this country has sunk to.

Where are all the presidential candidates on this issue?

Someone needs to tell the military that if this guy is not reinstated with back pay, that the first act on January 21, 2017 is to fire the people responsible and reinstate the Sgt and promote him to General.

Cruz, Rubio, Paul, Trump.... Anyone?

Way to go Vern! This is a disgrace and why I tell young men to hold off joining the military. We have perverts running the military and perverts want everyone to be a pervert, too.

I posted this in the wrong thread so here it is again.

This made me wonder about previous allies we’ve fought aside.

I wonder what the South Vietnam and South Korea soldiers were like.

Have a brother in law that was in Vietnam and uncle that was in Korea. Guess I could ask them too.

I’m 47 and though I’ve seen so many documentaries about WWII I’ve only seen a couple documenting the other two wars.

Should be a debate topic. Winner says anyone with any knowledge of this and did nothing will be prosecuted, including Obama.

I had a ex army friend who, years ago, told me that ragheads have wives for procreation, but that little boys are for fun.

The liltary is now a fag loving insttution and will as such protect muslims raping boys.

Fedgov is worse than the g-d soviets. They all need to be purged.

Yea, I wonder how the Commander in Chief would feel if it was his daughter?
Where oh where is the line from Obama, “If I had a son he would look like that.”
The U.S. Army is being turned into the army of Sparta. I’m glad I steered my sons clear of it and I believe many other dads feel the same way.

The U. S. military is no longer worthy of such men as Sgt. Hartland.

Can we really sing God Bless America any longer (and believe that he will)?

Makes sense.

If they didn't have women reproducing they would soon run out of young boys to molest.

The LEFT corrupted every institution in America.

I know you WANT to think the military is different. And I'm sure most of the GI’s are still good young MEN. But, it is no different than any other government bureaucracy and you should discourage your kids from getting anywhere near this social experiment that will chew them up for nothing.

I heard the father of Corporal Buckley on the radio the other day. It was just ... words fail.

I told both of my kids to never join the military.

I don’t have anything against the military.

I don’t like the way it’s being run now.

My son wouldn’t have beaten the afghan rapists.

He would have shot them.

And probably been jailed for it.

Obama endorses afghans raping little boys, and shit-cans any US soldiers who may take exception to this, while openly promoting sodomy in the military ranks.

Got it.
