Reply #3: Nothing US troops can do, really

[Bragi]

ensho asks: why can't our military hunt down the men that do this?

The reason that can't happen is that the vast majority of men in that society hold medevil views regarding women. They always have, and this won't have changed by the time the US is forced to abandon its pointless war there.

The reality is that this country is a hopeless disaster that has been run by warlords, drug barons and religious thugs for hundreds of years.

That isn't going to change. Thinking otherwise is folly rooted in cultural arrogance and an ignorance of history.
