That was terrible, but it was an exception not the norm. Muslims consider any woman not wearing a hijab asking for it. They are not compatible with western culture.

That's not true and is a massive generalization lol. I lived in a Muslim nation for 15 years and.... no... Also wikileaks released plenty of other crimes that the US soldiers committed, so I guess it's an exception with regards to what was actually published by the mainstream media that they tried to hide and failed, in that regard it's an exception.

Hellothereawesome, you're right. There is actually a problem with sexual harassment, and rape in American military organizations. It's definitely a problem. But these transgressive soldiers are punished. I think the difference between certain Muslim populations, and the American military would be the response to atrocities. Mistreatment of women in some Muslim countries is not treated like a crime, and is tacitly encouraged.

What's the ethnicity of these American soldiers?
