   No, politicians were not making tactical decisions in Iraq...   
      
      
      
      
      
      
   If your reading comprehension is so pathetic that you can't understand a   
   series of events... military making military decisions to put women on   
   check-points and needing to do militarily *stupid* stuff to conform to idiotic   
   *political* dictations of    
   policy, that is not my problem, it's yours.    
      
      
   YOUR problem (aside from being hysterical...) is that you directly   
   contradicted your own previous argument- "It doesn't matter what the commander   
   thinks is a good and useful idea."   
      
   Obvious it DOES matter...

   twenty-some dead women all at once...  because while the *men* stayed   
   overnight at the checkpoints because it was *too dangerous* to return to the   
   main base between shifts, the *female*    
   soldiers couldn't remain out there bunked with the guys so they loaded them   
   all up on a bus every single day and drove them out and drove them back.  This   
   was not a *military* decision... it was pure politics and it got something   
   like 26 women killed.

   YOU ARE ON AN IRRELEVANT RANT.  It DOESN'T MATTER that some people got   
   killed.  That scenario doesn't say one goddamn thing about whether women make   
   good soldiers.
