Quote:but from what I can tell they are not interested in getting the soldiers into the "fighting spirit," as their goal is to keep the peace long enough to proceed with the elections.
I won't get into too much of a debate with you on this as it's obviously very close to your heart. Plus it's late and i'm very tired. Needless to say i don't agree with the above or especially this...
Quote:If they are invited into someone's home, they are required to remain in the room they are put, and not to wander around the house, as this may impose on the privacy of the women in the house. The concept of hijab is explained to them (accurately, as far as I can tell), and it's importance emphasized.
More for the fact of videos shown on the news of soldiers storming in to peoples homes, and dragging men out by their twisted arms. This is seen on the news as the norm so the above is just not true. Or if it is true..they ignore it.
I just don't buy the whole soldiers of justice thing that you are pushing, although i understand why. It's like argumens on race, i never get into them because they are too close to my heart. So i just leave them be and let other discuss.
Obviously i'm not saying you shouldn't comment on it, of course you can obviously do as you wish, but i would suggest engaging in debate on a topic like this will not get you very far because of the feelings involved. I don't know maybe i am wrong. I just don't agree with what you are saying here.
