U.S. Army Medics Have to Explain to Afghan Men How to Make Their Wives Pregnant

Al — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 03:16:29 +0000

Hmm, I wonder if their religion has anything to do with it:

Pashtun men commonly have sex with other men, admire other men physically, have sexual relationships with boys and shun women both socially and sexually — yet they completely reject the label of “homosexual.” . . .

The U.S. army medic also told members of the research unit that she and her colleagues had to explain to a local man how to get his wife pregnant.

The report said: “When it was explained to him what was necessary, he reacted with disgust and asked, ‘How could one feel desire to be with a woman, who God has made unclean, when one could be with a man, who is clean? Surely this must be wrong.’”

The Pashtun populations are concentrated in the southern and eastern parts of the country. The Human Terrain Team that conducted the research is part of a military effort to learn more about local populations.

The report also detailed a disturbing practice in which older “men of status” keep young boys on hand for sexual relationships. One of the country’s favorite sayings, the report said, is “women are for children, boys are for pleasure.”

The report concluded that the widespread homosexual behavior stems from several factors, including the “severe segregation” of women in the society and the “prohibitive” cost of marriage.

Yeah, you could say that homosexual behavior is widespread in Afghanistan when even the Taliban is flamin’ gay:

Wounded Haiti Earthquake Victims Left to Fend for Themselves as the U.N. Orders Doctors to Leave

Al — Sat, 16 Jan 2010 21:54:33 +0000

Haiti earthquake victims in a field hospital, many in critical condition and grasping at life, watched doctors and nurses leave them to die Friday night because the United Nations had ordered the medics’ evacuation out of security concerns. They even took most of the medical supplies with them:

Port-au-Prince, Haiti (CNN)– Earthquake victims, writhing in pain and grasping at life, watched doctors and nurses walk away from a field hospital Friday night after United Nations officials ordered a medical team to evacuate the area out of security concerns, CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Sanjay Gupta reported.

U.N. spokesman Martin Nesirky said Saturday that the world body’s mission in Haiti did not order any medical team to leave the Port-au-Prince field hospital. If the team left, it was at the request of their own organizations, he told CNN.

Gupta assessed the needs of the 25 patients, but there was little he could do without supplies. And more people, some in critical condition, were trickling in.

Gupta monitored patients’ vital signs, administered painkillers and continued intravenous drips. He stabilized three new patients in critical condition.

“I’ve never been in a situation like this. This is quite ridiculous,” Gupta said.

He reported that the doctors and nurses began returning Saturday morning.

With a dearth of medical facilities in Haiti’s capital, ambulances had no where else to take patients, some who had suffered severe trauma — amputations and head injuries — under the rubble. Others had suffered a great deal of blood loss, but there were no blood supplies left at the clinic.

Gupta feared that some would not survive the night.

He and his television crew stayed with the injured all night, long after the medical team had left, long after the generators gave out and the tents turned pitch black.

Gupta said the Belgian doctors did not want to leave their patients behind but were ordered out by the United Nations, which sent buses to transport them.

Retired Army Lt. Gen. Russel Honoré, who led relief efforts for Hurricane Katrina in 2005, said the evacuation of the clinic’s medical staff was unforgivable.

“We can’t be leaning so much toward security that we allow people to die,” he said Saturday.

“Search and rescue must trump security,” Honoré said Friday night. “I’ve never seen anything like this before in my life. They need to man up and get back in there.”

Honoré drew parallels between the tragedy in New Orleans and in Port-au-Prince. But even in the chaos of Katrina, he said, he had never seen medical staff walk away.

“I find this astonishing these doctors left,” he said. “People are scared of the poor.”

If those contemptible U.N. bureaucrats were so concerned about the doctors’ security amid reports of looting – why didn’t they send some of these armed “peacekeepers” you see in the video to protect them while they tried to save lives? And what kind of doctors leave their patients to die, even if ordered by a bunch of U.N. scum? What would have the “peacekeepers” done if they had refused to leave – shot them?

If you are surprised by the U.N.’s appalling inhumanity, remember the 2004 Asian tsunami when these world-government wannabes announced they’d be moving in with aid – but not before building a town for U.N. staff complete with all the comforts and conveniences they were used to, including a movie theater. The U.S. military, meanwhile, was bringing aid on Navy ships and helicoptering it ashore.

UPDATE: The CNN article has been updated and now says that the Belgian medics’ chief coordinator said it was his decision to evacuate them. He says the U.N. declined his request to provide security personnel for the night and told him the “peacekeepers” would only be able to evacuate the team. Why does the U.N. keep armed men in Haiti if they are not available to protect doctors trying to save people who are bleeding to death?

KGB Claims It Destroyed Hitler’s Remains in 1970

Al — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 15:51:31 +0000

The KGB - whatever its current name – says that the remains of Adolf Hitler, his wife Eva Braun, his propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels and Goebbels’s family were secretly buried in 1946 at a Soviet military base in East Germany, and that in 1970 they were dug up, burnt on a bonfire, ground into ashes and thrown into a river. The Russians also claim they kept some fragments of Hitler’s body, which they still have.
