This is what all soldiers of all countries always do.

This is why you don't send soldiers anywhere you don't have to.

Hell, even charity workers do it.

India set up all female divisions, that seems to be the only answer.

Bullshit. It's the exception, not the rule and individual perpetrators should absolutely be brought to justice in those countries. Let their courts have them if it's proven they did this. Characterizing every soldier and aid worker as a predator due to the actions of a rare few is ridiculous nonsense.

Yeah, I'm sure their soldiers almost never do that.

So it's OK then? That makes soldiers in general do-gooders?

No, it's not acceptable, but it's on all of us to protect our daughters... not the UN.

One American soldier and apparently 118 Columbian soldiers. Terrible article suggesting it's common that US soldiers rape indigenous women. If it's true, it's one, lone pos that should absolutely feel the full brunt of Columbian law. Throw him out of the US service and let the Columbian court try and sentence him. Conduct unbecoming should never be accepted or harbored.

When you consider that our military is made up of mostly poor dirty tatooed brown people, it’s highly probable theres something here.
