    We’d be remiss if we didn’t mention the US is also terrible on women’s rights. Literally banned abortion, states are removing maritalremoved as a crime, and women are constantly coming forward about their abuse in the workplace, with actors in Hollywood being the most visible.

    And then there’s the rights of girls. States allow child marriage to adults and Epstein’s accomplices are being protected.

    But sure, it’s Arabs who need to be carpet bombed because we all know you can make bombs and bullets that only kill abusers and misogynists.

      There’s a book called “The cartel in Ft. Bragg” ? I think? It’s about how the special forces (especially delta force) essentially run their own drug cartel and are entirely immune to legal oversight that even the rest of the army is. Anyway, in the book the author interviews a soldier who was a woman who was chosen to work in a support role for the delta force operators. As you can imagine, she (and every other female soldier) was subjected to all kinds of sexual humiliation. She even asked her CO to be deployed so she could “do her job” and he laughed in her face and said her job is basically to be eye candy and bend over when asked. So…yeah. something something every accusation is a confession
