Phyllis Schlafly has successfully blamed the Abu Ghraib abuses on women being permitted into the military.
Damn women. First we let them into the military, next thing you know their magic ray guns subconsciously make our male soldiers sic dogs on prisoners who are then made to masturbate, naked, while blindfolded. Drat their maniacal plan for world conquest!
A leading conservative spokeswoman says while the outrage over the prisoner abuse scandal at Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad has centered on the humiliation of the terrorist captives, the reason behind the sexual nature of the alleged abuse has been largely ignored. Phyllis Schlafly of Eagle Forum believes the sexual aspects of the scandal might not have occurred had the U.S. military not involved women. "What we have in the military today is the feminists' attempt to give us a gender-neutral or 'un-gendered' military -- and it's bad news all the way around," she says. "It's humiliating for the world. [Women] should not be in co-ed training, and they should not be in combat." Schlafly hopes more people will ask questions regarding the sexual nature of the alleged abuse and that reflection will lead to addressing what she sees as the overall problem. - AgapePress
