Sexually Abusing Male Soldiers and Civilians

 The latest unconformed reports out of Gaza is that Israeli Occupation Forces are demanding men submit to sexual assault, stripping them of clothing and raping some.  Including American citizens, shopkeepers, and journalists. This war is getting uglier and uglier.  The European media has pictures:


Not only are the adult men and teenagers not all Hamas, but no rules of war permit sexual rapes of soldiers, whether they be Israeli female teenagers serving or Palestianian men ordered to strip and submit. The world must speak out against the sexual crimes during war. Surely Hillary Clinton understands rape is no less savage when a man is the target of violence and will soon be condeming these crimes?

* Remember too, if the past is precedent, what soldiers are permtted to do "over there" later comes to our own paramilitarized police forces here at home.  It's not an accepted tactic, mass stripdowns and select rapes of those in custody.
