Obama To Troops: Don't Insult The Taliban

[Geee]

Investors Business Daily:

Political Correctness: The administration blames U.S. troop rudeness for insider attacks by Afghan training partners. So it's issuing an etiquette book ordering them not to criticize "pedophilia" and other things Islamic.

Echoing Afghan President Hamid Karzai, who recently compared our troops to terrorists, the administration says troop insensitivity to Afghan culture, not Taliban infiltration, is behind the recent spike in deadly green-on-blue attacks.

In fact, a draft Army handbook advises troops against insulting not just sacred Islamic figures but the Taliban themselves. The 75-page manual lists among "taboo topics" of conversation between U.S. troops and their Afghan counterparts "making derogatory comments about the Taliban."

Also off-limits: "advocating women's rights," "any criticism of pedophilia," "mentioning homosexuality and homosexual conduct" or "anything related to Islam."

So let's get this straight. We spent our blood and treasure in Afghanistan over the past decade not to destroy the enemy and its brutal culture of terrorism, beheadings, stoning of women and child marriage and rape, but to protect and preserve them?

The extreme political correctness doesn't stop there.
