I was deployed in Afghanistan in 2013

[The Jungle 1]

85. Never should have went there.

As the Taliban takes over the abuse of boys will get worse and girls will be taken out of school.
Rampant sexual abuse is the culture of Afghanistan. I do not think war will fix that. I never held any hope for a culture that accepts child abuse. We should have bombed the shit out of them and walked away. If they ever stuck their head up again then bomb um again.

Only a total lack of cultural humanity allows the abuse of innocence.
This disgusting Afghan culture calls it bacha bazi, literally “boy play,” and American soldiers and Marines were ordered not to intervene.
“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.

Just imagine having to try and help these animals. Mr. Buckley's son was murdered on base.

Thank you Joe.
