I know PKK (a designated terrorist organization) has long been fielding women, much like MEK (also terrorist), but what gets me is the recent adulation coming from our press over this abhorrent practice of using girls who can hardly fight as cannon fodder.

Now, they seem to have picked up on the dumb feminist contingent stateside and are making even more of a spectacle out of these girls from mountain villages. If these are our most important “allies” in the region, and unfortunately it looks as though they are, we’ve already lost this battle.
