US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta removes military ban on women in combat, opening thousands of front line positions

Girls with guns:

remember when all the Marines had to disarm when Panetta went over to the Middle East to speak to them? How pathetic can you be.

And we are no longer a sovereign nation. Our military fights for the UN, make no mistake about it. And they will soon be called on to disarm the United States. How anyone can follow those orders is beyond me.....

Agreed in a constitutional republic the People are the Sovereign. Now the executive branch is pretending we're a democracy in which He is the sovereign meanwhile the puppet-master corportations are the despots who pull his strings.

Both women and men should be banned from combat and that would solve the problems.

How else can what I told you about how food prices are going to go up until people are working a day for a loaf of bread (3rd seal done) and then the "great war" will come (4th seal) UNLESS the obamination does his job ??????

This is his job. He has to tear our nation apart to prepare it for the communists to come in and kill everyone. First it was the fudge packers, now the women. What better way to weaken the nation's defense ????

Seriously it is only going to get worse. In the end all of you will know I told you the truth about the future that I got from God. Repent now while it is still given to you. No point fighting for a lost cause.

Patriots, not sexualized human beings. Honor and Valor. Rise up and stop talking and pleading for your rights.

The arz-ray-leez tried this and it was a disaster. When women get injured, the men turned to jellied shit.

worrisome 4 sure

Call me a Dinosaur I don't care this is a bad idea.
I realize there are women out there that are probably faster stronger and better shot than me but I would hate the think that mothers are out there dying in combat for these fucking NOTHING but oil profit driven wars.
This is vile .
On the other hand if the US was under a hostile invasion from another country and all we had was at stake that would be another story and Annie grab a gun.

and, of course, don't be forgetting Calamity Jane.

("the calamity" was the popular term for syphilis back then :)

Panetta would hide behind a woman, what a coward pos!

This shows the world our hand also the fact that the US military is spread out SO thin that we are having to resort to women on front lines to fill the spots upfront.

It's not that women can't be combat soldiers, for some could. It's not that they can't do the physical things that some men(not all) can do like carrying another soldier out, for some can. It's that it's unnecessary given a decreasing role of a military we already can't afford.

Bring them home. Stop being world policemen. Give soldiers real jobs to create wealth so they buy homes. Focus on professional domestic soldiers.

If we had enough oil domestically, would the Middle East even matter in the final analysis? Nope, not for us. It would for Europe. It would for Russia and China. Let them deal with it. The Suez Canal is a long way from the USA. Bring the jobs back. That will increase the real security of the USA.

Having women in combat positions is illogical. The only reasons are as a social experiment and to bolster the amount of troops to draw from in a time of massive need. We don't have that. It's foolish to change everything. It's expensive.

If some women wish to do it, let them try. We don't oppose women attempting to reach for goals. That's un-American. Let them try. Some might succeed. You don't force women to do it if you don't logically need to do it.

Calamity Jane

YEEEEEHAAAA!!! Now our Daughters can fight and die for the criminal elite....of course that would be after the Naked Body Scanning and Groping.......YEEEEHAAAA!!!

Any time.
It's terrifying how over-run the Federal machine is with domestic enemies.

We need a literal miracle to clean them out.

these slimy bastards that are running are goverment are the worst of the worst

girls in combat:

All going along according to plan.....

The govt could be doing this now for population control. More women killed in battle=less people and fewer potential baby-makers. A double-whammy.

Fits the agenda of reducing population.

girls with guns

We don't need women on the front line period!

Isn't that up to the women that want to go for it? It's not up to you and me.

Here's a KY Southern Belle from Bowling Green who earned the Silver Star:

SGT Leigh Ann Hester

Voices of Valor
An American Hero: Army Woman Earns Silver Star and Makes History

When a 19 year old from Bowling Green, KY, enlisted in the Army National Guard in 2001, she probably never dreamed she’d become an American hero or that she’d make it into the history books—but that’s exactly what SGT Leigh Ann Hester did in 2005. Her actions during an enemy ambush on a US supply convoy made her an American hero. Being awarded the Silver Star—the nation’s third highest award for valor—for her actions that day, gave her a permanent place in American history. "

" After insurgents hit the convoy with a barrage of fire from machine guns, AK-47 assault rifles and rocket-propelled grenades, Hester "maneuvered her team through the kill zone into a flanking position where she assaulted a trench line with grenades and M203 rounds," according to the Army citation accompanying the Silver Star.

"She then cleared two trenches with her squad leader where she engaged and eliminated three AIF [anti-Iraqi forces] with her M4 rifle. Her actions saved the lives of numerous convoy members," the citation stated. "

Should she have just said, "Well I'm a woman, I can't do it?"

Col. Ruby Bradley
[link to en.wikipedia.org]
"Bradley served in the Korean War as Chief Nurse for the 171st Evacuation Hospital before being named Chief Nurse for the Eighth Army in 1951 where she supervised over 500 Army nurses throughout Korea. It was there that she refused to leave until she had loaded the sick and wounded onto a plane while surrounded by 100,000 Chinese soldiers. She was able to jump aboard the plane just as her ambulance exploded from an enemy shell.

She was promoted to the rank of colonel in 1958 and retired from the Army in 1963. Her military record included 34 medals and citations of bravery, including two Legion of Merit medals, two Bronze stars, two Presidential Emblems, the World War II Victory Medal, and the United Nations Service Medal.

She was the subject of a February 23, 2000 NBC Nightly News report by Tom Brokaw about the forgotten heroes of the military."

"Army Spc. Monica Lin Brown saved the lives of fellow soldiers after a roadside bomb tore through a convoy of Humvees in the eastern Paktia province in April 2007, the military said.

After the explosion, which wounded five soldiers in her unit, Brown ran through insurgent gunfire and used her body to shield wounded comrades as mortars fell less than 100 yards away, the military said."

Don't get me wrong, I don't want women to be drafted or forced into a combat position. But if some want to go for it, I wouldn't stop them. They're patriots.

If we are sending women to the front lines then are country doesn't need to be defended.

What does that mean...elaborate?
