This is total BS… Almost all of these countries have “combat women” on paper only…

Now, take into account the number of people all these nations have actually sent into real combat in the past fifty years.

We in the United States have an odd fascination with what other countries do.

However, since no other nation in the history of the planet has ever had a military superior to ours, I would suggest that we should be the example other countries are following, and not much care what other countries do.

I’m trying to figure out if it tracks with the likelihood of “invasion” or large-scale combat. It almost looks like countries in either extreme allow women in the front line. In other words, either they’ll never really see full-on, front line combat, or they’ll need every able-bodied person available if their worst fears are realized.

Israel, Eritrea and North Korea

They’re all backward religious ethno-patriarchy police states. My NYU Wymn’s Studies professor told me so and the rich guy I’m f***ing to pay tuition agrees.

Women are weaker.
They get sick more often.
There will be “distractions” which will lead to pregnancies.
They will be raped…by our guys as well as by enemies.
They will get post-traumatic stress disorder (shell shock, battle fatigue syndrome) far more often than men.

Why are we sending women to the front lines of battle?
To appease leftist political groups that have bought our President & most of Congress.

No Hispanic country allows this. I think this could be a winner for the GOP in their courtship of ~~illegal aliens~~ new voters./
