The disgusting rape numbers don't surprise me in the least. & if you think you have sophisticated leadership over these Kid soldiers (some are grown kids btw) that are demanding respect for ALL fellow soldiers you are a fool.; Aug 5, 2008, 3:14:00 PM

In any case, women in the military are known to be extremely ho-ish. I'm not saying rape doesn't occur, but women in the military run trains and all that-frequently.; Aug 5, 2008, 3:58:00 PM

I would not doubt that is a real shot...why should we since it has already been proven that it is rampant in the military - why not against prisoners?

Also, since you know that rapes occur...what is the purpose of even bringing up the fact that some women in the military run trains?; Aug 5, 2008, 5:19:00 PM
Anonymous said...: Easily nearly half of civilian rape allegations are falsified.

So yea, I can only imagine the % in the military, where hoz are doing everything they can to cover their asses from discipline and demotion. "Rape" has just become another "get out of jail free card" for a lot of women.; Aug 5, 2008, 5:52:00 PM

"There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment. How often, or on what system, the Thought Police plugged in on any individual wire was guesswork. It was even conceivable that they watched everybody all the time. But at any rate they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized."

The founders of the American state understood that the proper functioning of a democracy required an educated electorate. It is this understanding that justifies a system of public education and that led slaveholders to resist the spread of literacy among their chattels. But the meaning of "educated" has changed beyond recognition in two hundred years. Reading, writing, and arithmetic are no longer sufficient to decide on public policy. Now we need quantum mechanics and molecular biology. The knowledge required for political rationality, once available to the masses, is now in the possession of a specially educated elite, a situation that creates a series of tensions and contradictions in the operation of representative democracy.

"At present the population of the world is increasing at about 58,000 per diem. War, so far, has had no very great effect on this increase, which continued throughout each of the world wars.. War has hitherto been disappointing in this respect, but perhaps bacteriological war may prove effective. If a Black Death could spread throughout the world once in every generation, survivors could procreate freely without making the world too full. The state of affairs might be unpleasant, but what of it?"
