Teflon Military Women
posted by Adam on 11:30 AM August 24th, 2004
Inequality Benjamin Adam Studtmann writes "The American military machine is not immune to the gender-based poisons in our society. Here we have the short, sour, and heartripping story of a Lieutenant Colonel Williams. Lt. Col. Williams had entirely consensual, comprehensively documented sex with two female soldiers, one an NCO. He was instantly court-martialed in disgrace, and sentenced to seven months of good hard prison time. His girlfriends? Not a single black mark on their records -- they were let off scot-free. Why? Well, they were women, weren't they? On the same site, one can also read just how well PFC Jessica Lynch is doing in the midst of all her personally generated confusion and controversy.Military women seem to be Teflon -- s**t just won't stick!

Seconds after I typed that, I found this. I'd say 'enjoy', but I doubt that applies here. If you don't have time to read the story, the summary is simple: Male = dishonorable, female = honorable. Just like in civilian life! Oh, and did I mention she suddenly decided months after landing in hot water that she was raped? Did I mention that this was clearly a steaming load? The article ends by telling us that this poor, suffering, flower of womanhood avoided 26 years in pound-me-in-the-*** military prison because the fragile doe was suffering from attention deficit disorder and post-traumatic stress. Naturally I'm fighting back the urge to send the traumatized little girl a fruit basket out of sheer pity and sympathy."

Anyhow, first off I dont normally accept conspiracy theory but...

After researching it (from a secular point of view) the last few day...

This is just the tip of the iceberg of a gay conspiracy to make straight people gay, with the ultimte goal of destroying the paternal family.

With every thing I have read about, from paternity fraud, to sperm bank donors overwhelmingly being homosexual, and everything else (including a discussion with a militant lesbian feminist), I am having trouble coming to any other conclusion...

Am I crazy??? Or is this really happening?

Even gay men are under attack by feminists (and everyone else with strong opinions), but (of course) they're a minority, so Gay White Men are abused less on commercial airwaves than Straight White Men, the only abuseable stereotype (tm). Also, not every feminist is a lesbian, so I'd say there's not so much a "gay conspiracy" than there is a "feminist conspiracy". Which, even though well-founded in the feminization of America, makes one sound like a complete lunatic when one says something akin to that.

There is no "gay conspiracy". There is no "homosexual agenda" or a "homosexual lifestyle". Just double standards on how men and women are treated.

Thanks to the women's movement, any attempt to prosecute female misdeeds becomes a touchy public relations problem. Women can pretty much get away with anything and use any bullsh*t excuse to get off. Discipline and sacrifice are values only to be applied to military men; the armed forces' mission apparently is to make women confortable.

But as one poster showed, even these double standards aren't as pronounced as those in the Israeli military.

Ask anyone who has ever served in the military. There are strict rules about officers fraternizing with enlisted. The woman may have been a high ranking NCO, but, she was still an enlisted person. The Lt Col really should have known better than to play with an NCO. Women officers have been prosecuted while their male NCO partners were also not prosecuted. It is the way of the military.

I was in the military for 20 years and have seen blatant sexism in the military. In this case, however, I was also wondering whether or not the determining factor in who got prosecuted was their rank.

In this case, the man was a high ranking officer, the woman a relatively low ranking enlisted. (Staff sergeant in the Air Force is only an E-5, not high ranking by any measure. Senior enlisted ranks in the Air Force start at E-7)

I could be wrong, but I tend to believe that if the ranks had been reversed, only the woman officer would have been prosecuted.

Anyone here know of an instance where this was not the case, where an enlisted man had an affair with a woman officer and the low ranking enlisted man was prosecuted alone or in concert with the woman officer?

Am I being naive?

The west is doomed, in the west men are considered slaves, without reproductive rights.Women have reproductive rights, men are the slaves that must work to support the children they decide to have, plus work to make women lifes as better as possible at their expense.

Women have children and the west goverments offers them slaves in return, the relationship between men and women is a PARASITE/SLAVE relationship. Sperm usage, children, sexual harrasment, date rape, whatever, just excuses to exploite men while avoiding saying openly that men are just slaves.

Are christians the politicinas that make those rules?, are christians the judges that treat men like scum?, coincidence?, i do not think so.

Who are attending churches?, mostly women, coincidence?, "child support", alimony, "marital" assets distribution just punishment for male sexuality, with the support of the feminists ofcourse.

The so called traditionalist, are only traditional regarding the duties of men, reducing men to the status of slaves, (obligations without rights), feminist and traditionalist are just two faces of the same coin.Obligations for men , rights for women.

This is the messesage that one can hear in every christian church all over the west, they tell men to accept their "responsabilities", to accpet their destiny, SLAVERY with capital letters, meanwhile:

    Islam is now the second religion not just in the US but in Europe and Australia. Europe has 15 million Muslims, accounting for one in ten of the population in France, where the government now estimates 50,000 Christians are converting to Islam every year. In Brussels, Mohammed has been the most popular name for boy babies for the last four years. In Britain, attendance at mosques is now higher than it is in the Church of England.

Saudi preacher Sheikh Said al-Qahtani said on the Iqraa TV satellite channel, ‘We did not occupy the US, with eight million Muslims, using bombings. Had we been patient and let time take its course, instead of the eight million there could have been 80 million [Muslims], and 50 years later perhaps the US would have become Muslim.’

It is difficult to brush this off as an aberration of Islam, which is normally just tickety-boo letting the rest of the world indulge in its false beliefs. Dr Zaki Badawi, the moderate former director of the Islamic Cultural Centre in London, admitted, ‘Islam endeavours to expand in Britain. Islam is a universal religion. It aims to bring its message to all corners of the earth. It hopes that one day the whole of humanity will be one Muslim community.’

The first jihad was in ad 630, when Mohammed led his army to conquer Mecca. He made a prediction that Islam would conquer the two most powerful Christian centres at the time, Constantinople and Rome. Within 100 years of his death, Muslim armies had conquered the previously Christian provinces of Syria, Palestine, Egypt and the rest of North Africa, as well as Spain, Portugal and southern Italy, until they were stopped at Poitiers in central France in ad 732. Muslim armies overthrew the ancient Zoroastrian empire of Persia, and conquered much of central Asia and Hindu India.

Ibn Warraq, a Pakistani who lost his Islamic faith, wrote in his book Why I am not a Muslim, ‘Although Europeans are constantly castigated for having imposed their insidious decadent values, culture and language on the Third World, no one cares to point out that Islam colonised lands that were the homes of advanced and ancient civilisations.’

It took 700 years for the Spanish to get their country back in the prolonged ‘Reconquista’. In the meantime the Turks, a central Asian people, had been converted to Islam and had conquered the ancient Christian land of Anatolia (now called Turkey). In 1453 they captured Constantinople — fulfilling Mohammed’s first prediction — which was the centre of the Eastern Orthodox Church. The glorious Hagia Sophia, which had been one of the most important churches in Christendom for nearly 1,000 years after it was built in ad 537, was turned into a mosque, and minarets were added. The Turks went on to occupy Greece and much of the Balkans for four centuries, turning the Parthenon into a mosque and besieging Vienna, before retreating as their power waned.

In the Middle East, there are regular calls for Mohammed’s second prediction to come true. Sheikh Muhammad bin Abd al-Rahman al-’Arifi, imam of the mosque of the Saudi government’s King Fahd Defence Academy, wrote recently, ‘We will control the land of the Vatican; we will control Rome and introduce Islam in it.’

Not all conversion has been by the sword. Muslim traders peaceably converted Indonesia, now the most populous Islamic nation. But nor have the conquests stopped. Islam has continued spreading in sub-Saharan Africa, most notably in Nigeria and Sudan. Abyssinia — Ethiopia — is an ancient Christian land where Muslims have come to outnumber Christians only in the last 100 years. Just 50 years ago, Lebanon was still predominantly Christian; it is now predominantly Muslim.

In Christian countries, those who warn about Islamification, such as the film star Brigitte Bardot, are prosecuted, while in Muslim countries those who call for the Islamification of the world are turned into TV celebrities. In the West, schools teach comparative religion, while in Muslim countries schools teach that Islam is the only true faith. David Blunkett in effect wants to ban criticism of Islam, a protection not enjoyed by Christianity in Muslim countries. Millions of Muslims move to Christian countries, but virtually no Christians move to Muslim ones.

Anthony Browne is Europe correspondent for the Times.

I consider christians the culprits of the miseries of western men, all was planned as a punishment to men that did not follow their way to live, a punishment to men that sex before marriage, or wanted to divorce, (a punihment to men and a reward for women, thats why they colluded with feminits), they wanted to force people to live their lives.

I am happy to see that christians will fall together with feminists, both hate men, both must go to hell?.

By the way i am atheist, educated in catholic schools in a catholic country, and i can not distinguish feminism from cristian religion, regarding men and women roles in society, execept regarding the abortion issue.

In the Air Force when there's a fraternization case, only the officer is punished (unless the enlisted member was also married or some other mitigating factor). If the sexes were reversed the officer is still the only one who would have been punished.

Don't take this to mean that women don't get preferential treatment in th military, however. That would just be rediculous.
