US Marine in Trouble for Preventing Child-Rape in Afghanistan

For sure you have to read this article to believe it.

A Marine went into an Afghan officers quarters and beat him up because he was sodomizing a little boy he had chained to his bed.  Next he got in trouble with the US Military because he shouldn't have intervened....because sodomizing little boys is simply the "custom" of the locals.

KABUL, Afghanistan — In his last phone call home, Lance Cpl. Gregory Buckley Jr. told his father what was troubling him: From his bunk in southern Afghanistan, he could hear Afghan police officers sexually abusing boys they had brought to the base.

“At night we can hear them screaming, but we’re not allowed to do anything about it,” the Marine’s father, Gregory Buckley Sr., recalled his son telling him before he was shot to death at the base in 2012. He urged his son to tell his superiors. “My son said that his officers told him to look the other way because it’s their culture.”

Rampant sexual abuse of children has long been a problem in Afghanistan, particularly among armed commanders who dominate much of the rural landscape and can bully the population. The practice is called bacha bazi, literally “boy play,” and American soldiers and Marines have been instructed not to intervene — in some cases, not even when their Afghan allies have abused boys on military bases, according to interviews and court records.

The policy has endured as American forces have recruited and organized Afghan militias to help hold territory against the Taliban. But soldiers and Marines have been increasingly troubled that instead of weeding out pedophiles, the American military was arming them in some cases and placing them as the commanders of villages — and doing little when they began abusing children.

“The reason we were here is because we heard the terrible things the Taliban were doing to people, how they were taking away human rights,” said Dan Quinn, a former Special Forces captain who beat up an American-backed militia commander for keeping a boy chained to his bed as a sex slave. “But we were putting people into power who would do things that were worse than the Taliban did — that was something village elders voiced to me.”

The policy of instructing soldiers to ignore child sexual abuse by their Afghan allies is coming under new scrutiny, particularly as it emerges that service members like Captain Quinn have faced discipline, even career ruin, for disobeying it.

After the beating, the Army relieved Captain Quinn of his command and pulled him from Afghanistan. He has since left the military.

So the marine was relieved of command...and has left the military.

Tragic.

Just one other wonderful thing the "culture" of Islam has brought to the world....sodomizing little boys....

"Good will be called evil and evil will be called good."

Certainly the U.S. Military has to be on thin ice when it comes to God's blessings continuing to flow to them.  There once was a time when Army Chaplains could preach Christ...but no longer!  Sadly, when we forget that it's God is who made our nation powerful...our nation WILL BE torn down.

Read the Bible and see what happens to nations who turn their back on God....and turn their backs on Israel.
