A female U.S. soldier in a combat zone is more likely to be raped by a fellow soldier than killed by enemy fire. An estimated 500,000 men and women have been victims of sexual assault. Only eight percent of the cases have been prosecuted.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5><strong>Many victims are threatened with death if they report the crime.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5><strong>This film prompted U.S. Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta to announce substantial changes in policy that strengthen the prosecution of rape in the military. However, the article below indicates the problem has not been addressed.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<h5><strong>This documentary is painful to watch. That&#8217;s why I put the trailer first.\u00a0 While the media is full of stories about sexual exploitation, this serious problem in the US military is largely ignored. Why?\u00a0 My guess is that the military is exempt from #MeToo because it serves other Illuminati agendas.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n<h5>Here is the full documentary<\/h5>\n<div align=\"center\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PNblGKZpmQ8\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n&#8212;<\/div>\n<h5><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vox.com\/world\/2019\/5\/3\/18528148\/pentagon-military-sexual-assault-report-shanahan\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">Pentagon report shows a sharp rise in military sexual assaults The troubling statistics also show that the majority &#8212; about 70 percent &#8212; still do not officially report such incidents<\/span>.<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0May 2019<\/h5>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>by Jen Kirby\u00a0Vox<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h5><strong>The US military is reporting a disturbing<\/strong>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ffff00;\"><a style=\"color: #ffff00;\" href=\"https:\/\/int.nyt.com\/data\/documenthelper\/800-dod-annual-report-on-sexual-as\/d659d6d0126ad2b19c18\/optimized\/full.pdf#page=1\">spike in the number of active-duty service members who said they&#8217;d experienced sexual assault<\/a><\/span>\u00a0last year, raising questions once again about the military&#8217;s handling of misconduct.<\/h5>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.henrymakow.com\/2019\/11\/how-does-us-military-evade-me-too-scrutiny.html\">Continues \u2026<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A young woman in the US military is far more likely to be raped by a fellow GI than killed in action<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":39262,"featured_media":197708,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[93],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-197705","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-historic-sexual-abuse"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197705","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/39262"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=197705"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197705\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":197707,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197705\/revisions\/197707"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/197708"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=197705"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=197705"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=197705"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
