The Iranians may not have a problem with homosexuality, at least that's what Ahmadinejad says.
But, the Afghans sure do. How do I know that? Wikileaks, of course. Oh, and throw in a little pedophilia, too.
Read from Weasel Zippers:
WikiLeaks: American Troops Horrified by Afghan Forces Rampant Homosexuality and Pedophilia…
"Sickening…
'A document released by WikiLeaks described efforts by high-ranking Afghan officials to quash reports of police officers and other Afghans arrested for “purchasing a service from a child.”
The leaked diplomatic cable quoted former Minister of the Interior Hanif Atmar’s concern that publicity about the arrests, which involved the hiring of “dancing boys,” would “endanger lives.”
The author of the diplomatic cable fretted that the case would be “blown out of proportion, an outcome that would not be good for either the U.S. or Afghanistan.”
The vast gulf between U.S. and Afghan attitudes about homosexuality and pedophilia has generated concern among U.S. advisers in Afghanistan since the American presence there began to expand.
In late 2009, U.S. and British forces ordered a study of Pashtun male sexuality. They were worried that homosexuality and pedophilia among Afghan security forces and tribes could create cultural misunderstanding with allied troops, according to a copy of the report obtained by The Washington Examiner.
The study, requested by 2nd Marine Expeditionary Battalion along with British forces in Lashkar Gah, was conducted by members of one of the Defense Department’s Human Terrain Teams stationed in Afghanistan. The report was authored by team member Anna Maria Cardinalli, who said the goal was to learn how to advise “U.S. and British service members who report encounters with men displaying apparently homosexual tendencies. These service members are frequently confused [by] this behavior.”
The report described unease by U.S. Marines and British soldiers who felt they were being propositioned, or who were outraged by apparent acts of pedophilia by Afghan soldiers and police. It documented one case in which 12 of 20 Pashtun interpreters working with one U.S. Army unit had contracted gonorrhea from homosexual encounters.
Troops interviewed by The Examiner say they are frequently forced to deal with a radically different attitude toward sex with male youths by Afghan security forces.
“I know Marines and soldiers who have refused to work with Afghan military or police,” said one U.S. military official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. “It’s not about homosexuality as much as it is about the young boys. Some of them like to show pictures on their cell phone — that should be illegal. Some of the Afghans have their own young boys they use for sexual purposes and we can’t do anything about it.”
Cardinalli told The Examiner by e-mail that she is writing a book about widespread acceptance of male homosexuality among Pashtuns, a culture where far fewer opportunities for premarital heterosexual encounters exist.'

It's easy now to see why osama had to put the fear of the knife to the throats of those animals.
The left in America also feels that this type of behavior is perfectly acceptable.
A miserable testimony to modern civilization.
What on earth or heaven or hell would make you think that "this type of behavior is perfectly acceptable" to the left in America?
If you cannot discern between homosexual acts between an adult and an unwilling child victim, and a homosexual relationship between consenting adults, you're more depraved than the Afghans.
And please remember this, rightwingnuts, the next time you insist that we cannot leave Afghanistan without "victory":
Our armed forces are in Afghanistan SUPPORTING these vermin. The "victory" you insist upon will ensure that these people will triumph.
And they're better than the Taliban?
DiogenASS:Does the left and the leftwing ACLU support NAMLA?
I rest my case, ass-wipe!
I don't know where you got the idea that "the left" supports NAMBLA. I certainly don't... and I'd like to see you back up that assertion of yours with some FACTS. But, judging on your past performance, you won't be able to do it, and you'll throw in a gratuitous, but still hilarious, "thumbsucker" riposte.
As for the ACLU, they can speak for themselves:
"August 31, 2000
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
NEW YORK--In the United States Supreme Court over the past few years, the American Civil Liberties Union has taken the side of a fundamentalist Christian church, a Santerian church, and the International Society for Krishna Consciousness. In celebrated cases, the ACLU has stood up for everyone from Oliver North to the National Socialist Party. In spite of all that, the ACLU has never advocated Christianity, ritual animal sacrifice, trading arms for hostages or genocide. In representing NAMBLA today, our Massachusetts affiliate does not advocate sexual relationships between adults and children.
What the ACLU does advocate is robust freedom of speech for everyone. The lawsuit involved here, were it to succeed, would strike at the heart of freedom of speech....
It is easy to defend freedom of speech when the message is something many people find at least reasonable. But the defense of freedom of speech is most critical when the message is one most people find repulsive. That was true when the Nazis marched in Skokie. It remains true today."

DiogenASS: consenting or not, it's against the law, thumbsucker!
http://www.criminal-law-lawyer-source.com/terms/pedophile.html
A pedophile is an individual whose primary sexual orientation is for children. Quite literally the word pedophilia means love ("-philia") for children ("pedo-"). In the field of psychology, a pedophile is considered to have paraphilia, or a psychosexual disorder. In the field of law, a pedophile is not a criminal unless s/he acts on their desires for children. When a pedophile does act on his or her feelings or desires, they may be committing acts of child sexual abuse or molestation, child exploitation, child pornography, incest, kidnapping, statutory rape, or the prostitution of minors.
It’s exploiting and abusing children and that in itself is a vile and immoral crime against the innocent, end of story!
AnonyMoron, you are a... moron. No other term for it.
Did you even READ what I said? I never once suggested that pedophilia would be OK if there was consent.
here's what I said, moron:
"If you cannot discern between homosexual acts between an adult and an unwilling child victim, and a homosexual relationship between consenting adults, you're more depraved than the Afghans."
Children, by law, cannot give consent, whether it be a homosexual or a heterosexual relationship. Nobody's arguing that that's wrong, save for NAMBLA. And nobody here is defending NAMBLA in the least.
So go argue with yourself in a dark place somewhere.
