We read in the
media that gay and lesbian relationships have been declared legal by the US
Supreme Court. That means that the gay and lesbian same sex marriage is legal
in all states of the USA.
There has been
little thought expressed of the impact that all this will have on US security.
The nation has put itself in danger. We can trace the issue back to World War
2.
Australians of
that generation remember the US servicemen coming to Australia in droves prior
to taking part in Macarthur’s island hopping against Japanese troops.
The Australian
girls went crazy after the smart looking Yanks who were kind to ladies, spent
money and had sex.
The Italians
dropped pamphlets on the Australian soldiers in North Africa telling how their
wives and girl friends were in the arms of American soldiers in Australia.
Australian soldiers would say the Americans were Over-sexed, Over-paid
and Over-here.
When the war was
over, there were thousands of Americans in Tokyo falling in love with Japanese
girls. We recall the movie Madame Butterfly.
Then during the
Vietnam War, thousands of Americans regularly descended on Tokyo and Bangkok
for Rest and Recreation leave. Bangkok changed into a sex capital with young
girls flocking to the city from villages to meet Americans. HIV/AIDS became the
backdrop to Thai society for decades.
But now the ball game has
changed. The Americans are fighting in the Middle East. This is hostile
territory where soldiers do not dare venture out of their fortified positions
to have sex with Moslem women. They may end up captured, beheaded and killed by
suicide bombers. Lesbian soldiers dare not seek sex aith Moslem women.
In previous
decades, Americans left babies behind to grow up as mixed race people
discriminated against.
In the Middle
East, a woman would be terrified to have a mixed race baby with an American
soldier as father. She would be subject to honour killing. The child would be killed by family disgraced
by a baby fathered by an infidel American.
So what is the
answer? The American soldiers are still Over-sexed
and Over-there. It would be better
to make sex relations in-house. But there are many men and few women. Let the
men have sex with men. The US military discipline starts to go on the slide.
According to US
Supreme Court, every soldier has the right to a same sex partner, either
civilian or military. On any military base, there could be hundreds of same sex
married soldiers.
Each couple will
demand a married quarter. There will be no more living in the barrack blocks
with the single soldiers. The messes will be the local gay bars.
In the military
there is discipline that keeps order. There is division between the ranks –
officers, non-commissioned officers and soldiers. This may all be destroyed over
time by same sex marriage.
There are two institutions in
democratic society – STATE and INDIVIDUAL. In time of war, the state
takes precedence. But since the Vietnam War protests, the STATE has taken a battering.
The INDIVIDUAL rights are about to swallow up military discipline.
We are aware of
the fighting spirit of the American soldiers in the D-Day invasion and on the
island of Okinawa. Australian troops on
the Kokoda Track had less admiration for the Americans who were mainly young
inexperienced soldiers of the national guard.
Even back in
those days, our fathers told us that the American soldiers were not tough but
relied on comforts with close air and naval support.
The standard of
fighting dropped during the Vietnam War. These were the baby boomer soldiers
who were a product of the new generation of culture of “Make love not war”.
Australian
soldiers in Vietnam were not in the thick of fighting of the American troops.
Australians fought the Long Tan battle while Americans faced the North
Vietnamese and Viet Cong at Khe Sanh and in the Tet offensive.
Discipline among
the American troops was said to be lacking with fragging or the killing of
officers. American troops are said to have gone on patrol smoking marijuana
which could be smelt by the enemy.
Now the standard
of fighting may have dropped further in the war in Afghanistan. There is
greater reliance on firepower from air strikes and drones. It may be that the
U.S. military is going soft.
The focus is on
advising and training of the troops of the supported nation and letting them avoid
the fighting.
Now the US
Supreme Court has allowed same sex marriage within the military.
We read
disturbing reports on Google of military chaplains to be removed if they refuse
to perform gay and lesbian marriages. But such marriages require a certificate
to be recognised by the military.
There is a sad
possibility that same sex marriage in the military will send the US Armed
forces into slow decline. The military may lose any tough edge that it may
have had.
The military is
a sub-culture of society with the major difference that personnel are subject
to military law. There is a command hierarchy with orders given and expected to
be obeyed.
Now there may come to be large numbers
of gay and lesbian soldiers demanding their rights. This will run the risk of
destabilizing the military.
Since the
military will now become an extra attractive career venue, there may be large
numbers of homosexual applicants for careers in years to come. Corrupt
recruiting may accept more homosexual applicants.
This will
increase over the years. Any attempt to introduce a quota will bring cries of
discrimination and legal action. Gay and lesbian soldiers may respond with
confrontation and demands.
There are
supposed to be few variables that operate in the giving and receiving of orders.
Will gay couples
be allowed to go into battle together? Will gay sailors go to sea with their
gay naval partner?
Are gay soldiers
mature enough not to cause confrontation with the requirements of military law?
Or will the same
sex marriage bloc cause confrontation and instability within the command
hierarchy? There will also be gay senior officers. At least a marriage certificate will lock couples together as the partner is to be a beneficiary in superannuation payments.
In leadership
studies in the Australian Army, we are told of two leadership systems in the
military. There is the formal rank structure and the informal social structure
both of which work together.
With same sex marriage in the
military, there is a new major structure that may operate at times in opposition
to the formal command structure.
At times, both
will be in conflict. Gay and lesbian soldiers may be supported by industrial
action. They will demand a Directorate of Gender Equality with authority
outside the command structure.
This may get
worse year by year and be supported by hostile forces working against the
nation. There is a standard tactic of combat that involves finding and
attacking the weak points.
It will not end.
The military same sex marriage issue is part of a wider campaign of activists
in the community.
There will be
increased pressure on the other target areas of Education, Law, Welfare and
Health.
Let us hope that
the State Courts and Supreme Court have not been infiltrated. The problem is
that both the gay sex and anti-gay sex judges have to disqualify themselves. But they can not and do not. There is no common ground whatever.
No-one is fit to
make the judgment. There is no intellectual and professional depth in one side
getting to make the judgment first.
Our children are entering a different world which will now be telling them
that they have valid options of straight or homosexual marriage. They will be
told that parents are to be ignored along with faith of their forefathers.
Family and Faith
are said to be irrelevant. But the United States must not be taken as the
leader of world morality. Barak Obama is the leader of the moral decline of the
United States. He is so proud.
Parents have no
rights. American teachers now have the right to promote gay and lesbian sex in
schools to young children. They can ignore the objections of parents. The Constitution gives them rights. The world is being polarized with Obama leading the
gay and lesbian bloc.
American
people believe that the US Constitution gave every person the right to bear
arms.The original plan was to defend
the family and neighbourhood from hordes of communists. Now that has gone from
the agenda. Arms are now to defend against Moslem extremists.
The new enemy
may well be the gay, lesbian and paedophile activists determined to take the
children away from family. That is a more real possibility than all the communists and Moslems on the planet.
