Women In Combat
A look at the role of
women in the war in Iraq.
Today in Iraq women are traveling in convoys, patrolling streets, manning checkposts just like the men. They are IN combat every day. But we still think of war in old time terms where soldiers line up on two sides and move toward each other in hand to hand combat or tank combat. That doesn't happen much these days. Most wars that happen now tend more toward the guerilla type. You never really know where or who your enemy is and everybody has to be ready to defend. Will this change the way women are seen in the military?

Women don't belong in the military. Now, I am a woman and a mother and never would I ever consider a miliatry career. I simply have no respect for the women that do, I find them offensive. Besides, with all the sex scandals who wants women serving alongside men? Doesnt that just create problems? How about being real women and doing the really hard work of growing and supporting a family. Stop trying to be boys, you wh*res, and start being REAL women. You make me sick.
