So what? We are at war. Part of being at war means you don't piss-off the locals if you can avoid it. Seems to be common sense to me.
Fight the Taliban and Al-Quida, not all of Afghanistan or the Muslim people.
Does it also seem like
common sense to ask troops to turn their backs on a hut that is full of ("dozen mines and grenades, 14 rocket propelled grenades, and plastic explosives") ?
It's the same hut in picture 1, as picture 5.
And the feminists are proven right. Women are a useful part of the infantry.
