In addition, our men in uniform are forbidden to disparage pedophilia. Even further, our soldiers are instructed not to speak of women’s rights. Or homosexuality. Or criticism of Afghans at all.
The manual, which runs 75 pages,
insinuates that the reason for the insider attacks among our troops by
Muslims is that we are ignorant of Afghani culture. The handbook
intones: “Better situational awareness/understanding of Afghan culture
will help better prepare [troops] to more effectively partner and to
avoid cultural conflict that can lead toward green-on-blue violence.”
It’s our insensitivity that fosters the sneak attacks inside our armed services.
63 of our soldiers have been murdered in almost 40 insider attacks just this year.
U.S. Marine General John Allen, the top
commander in Afghanistan, “does not approve of its contents,” according
to a military spokesman.
This follows an Obama Administration
decision in 2012 that removed any materials that portrayed Muslims
negatively. The FBI was ordered by Obama to eviscerate instructional
material that shows Muslims as violent or open to becoming terrorists.
And it’s not just the FBI; almost all
federal agencies are now tasked with Muslim outreach. The Justice
Department has an Islamic civil rights program, Homeland Security has
coffee with Muslim organizations that are radical, and even NASA was
pushed on Muslim diplomacy.
