Our Embassy in Afghanistan Is Guarded by Sexually Confused Frat Boys
By John Cook,
Wonder what it's like to guard State Department facilities in Kabul? In
photos first published by Gawker, security contractors get their kicks peeing
on one another, simulating anal sex, doing "butt shots," and "eating potato
chips out of ass cracks."
These photos were provided to us by the Project on Government Oversight,
which has just written a letter to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton detailing
its investigation into the "Lord of the Flies environment" that has overtaken
the private contractors who guard State Department employees in Kabul,
Afghanistan. According to POGO, employees of ArmorGroup North America—a unit of
contracting giant Wackenhut—get their jollies off by "deviant hazing [that] has
created a climate of fear and coercion, with those who declined to participate
often ridiculed, humiliated, demoted, or even fired."
What sort of hazing? The traditional desperately homoerotic frat boy
kind, mostly involving eating and drinking things off of other men's butts.
Also some nipple-biting, as you can see below. One POGO whistle blower
described it thusly [PDF link]: "They have a group of sexual predators,
deviants running rampant over there. No, they are not jamming guys in the ass
per say [sic], but they are showing poor judgenment [sic]." Most of it appears
to have been voluntary, but those who didn't really want to drink vodka shots
out of the clenched butt-cheeks of their male co-workers were penalized and
reported barricading themselves in their rooms. And sometimes the behavior
extended to the locals:
An Afghan national employed as a food service worker at the guard
corps' base at Camp Sullivan submitted a signed statement dated August 16,
2009, attesting that a guard force supervisor and four others entered a dining
facility on August 1, 2009, wearing only short underwear and brandishing
bottles of alcohol. Upon leaving the facility, the guard force supervisor
allegedly grabbed the Afghan national by the face and began abusing him with
foul language, saying, "You are very good for fXXXing." The Afghan national
reported that he "was too afraid of them I could not tell them any thing."
So anyway, these are the people who are guarding our national security in
Afghanistan, being paid vast multiples of what soldiers, sailors, and marines
get with your tax dollars. Are these guys asking, or telling?
