“Women are for children, boys are for pleasure.”

As recently covered by Examiner.com, the U.S. Army has floated a draft of a new training manual to be utilized for troops in the Afghanistan Theater of Operation.

According to the proposed manual, the reason behind many of the allied Afghan troops/police officers attacking and killing American and British personnel is due to ignorance on our part;

“Many of the confrontations occur because of [coalition] ignorance of, or lack of empathy for, Muslim and/or Afghan cultural norms, resulting in a violent reaction from the [Afghan security force] member.”

Listed among the “taboo” subjects of conversation include;

• Any criticism of pedophilia.
• Mentioning homosexuality and homosexual conduct.
• Advocating women’s rights.
• Anything related to Islam.

As reported by yesterday by WND.com, the linkage of pedophilia and/or homosexuality directly to the Islamic belief system has prompted founder of the terrorism watchdog group Jihad Watch, Robert Spencer to state;

“By mentioning pedophilia and women’s rights and saying that soldiers should not mention such things they are tacitly admitting that those things are indeed part of Islam.”

Following the well documented example of the founder of Islam, pedophilia is an accepted practice since its inception.

Admitted by Muslim scholars, Mohammed married his wife Aisha when she was 6-years-old, and consummated the marriage when she was nine.

That Was The 7th Century, This Is Now…

Examiner.com also covered the Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia, Sheikh Abdul Aziz bin Abdullah, recently authorizing Muslim adult males to marry girls as young as 10.

In a comprehensive (and widely ignored by other major media outlets) news article published by the San Francisco Chronicle from August of 2010 titled “Afghanistan’s dirty little secret,” reporter Joel Brinkley details the widespread cultural and religious acceptance of man-to-boy pedophilia in the Central Asian nation.

As detailed by Brinkley;

“Too often, soldiers on patrol passed an older man walking hand-in-hand with a pretty young boy.

Their behavior suggested he was not the boy’s father.

Then, British soldiers found that young Afghan men were actually trying to ‘touch and fondle them.’

For centuries, Afghan men have taken boys, roughly 9 to 15 years old, as lovers.

Some research suggests that half the Pashtun tribal members in Kandahar and other southern towns are bacha baz, the term for an older man with a boy lover.

Literally it means ‘boy player.’

The men like to boast about it.”

And Women…?

As cited, a favored Afghan expression goes: “Women are for children, boys are for pleasure.”

Fundamentalist Muslim clerics throughout the nation teach the faithful that women are “unclean” and “therefore distasteful.”

One unnamed Afghan was quoted as asking how his wife could become pregnant.

When explained the physical actions required, the man “reacted with disgust” and then asked;

“How could one feel desire to be with a woman, who God has made unclean?”
