ed note–when THIS represents the ‘leadership’ of American troops in Afghanistan, is it any wonder that we see the kinds of moral outrages taking place with the wholesale slaughter of innocent men, women and children there and elsewhere?
An Army brigadier general has been charged with forcible sodomy, inappropriate relationships, and possessing alcohol and pornography while serving as a senior commander in Afghanistan earlier this year.
Brig. Gen. Jeffrey Sinclair, a deputy commanding general of the 82 nd Airborne Division, faces a possible court martial over the charges handed down Wednesday.
In May, Sinclair was sent home to the United States in the middle of his combat tour in Afghanistan, where he was serving in the southern Afghanistan province of Kandahar as the deputy commander of logistics and support for the 82 nd Airborne.
Sinclair was sent to the division’s home base of Fort Bragg, N.C., so allegations of potential misconduct could be investigated. At the time of his return, base spokesmen confirmed that Sinclair was under criminal investigation.
A news release by the Fort Bragg Public Affairs Office listed the charges presented against Sinclair as including “forcible sodomy, wrongful sexual conduct, attempted violation of an order, violations of regulations by wrongfully engaging in inappropriate relationships and misusing a government travel charge card, violating general orders by possessing alcohol and pornography while deployed, maltreatment of subordinates, filing fraudulent claims, engaging in conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman and engaging in conduct prejudicial to good order and discipline, or of a nature to bring discredit upon the armed forces.”
Few specifics about the allegations against Sinclair were released Wednesday, but a Defense Department official said “several women were the subject of Sinclair’s alleged misconduct.”
A former U.S. official who worked with Sinclair during his deployment in Kandahar said he and other officials who knew Sinclair were shocked by the news of the charges. He described Sinclair as being “very proactive” and a “gregarious individual.”
Sinclair remains at Fort Bragg, where he has been serving in a placeholder position as a special assistant to the commanding general of the 18 th Airborne Corps. A Defense Department official said Sinclair was read the charges against him on Monday. Another official added that Sinclair is not under detention at the base.
Sinclair will now face an Article 32 hearing, at which evidence will be presented to a presiding officer to determine if his case should proceed to a court martial. No date has been set for that hearing.
This past decade, Sinclair has served two tours in Iraq and was on his second deployment to Afghanistan. He had also deployed as part of Operation Desert Storm in 1991.
Army spokesman George Wright says that in the past decade there have been only two Army general officers who have undergone courts martial.
In June, Brig. Gen. Roger B. Duff, a former commander of the 95th Training Division, pleaded guilty to two charges of false statements, two charges of conduct unbecoming, and seven charges of wearing unauthorized badges, awards or ribbons. Duff was sentenced to two months confinement and dismissal but, because of a pre-trial agreement, only the dismissal could be imposed. Duff’s sentence has not been finalized.
Prior to Duff’s case, the only other court martial involving an Army general officer was in 1999, when Maj. Gen. R.E. Hale pled guilty to seven counts of conduct unbecoming an officer and one count of making a false statement about an adulterous relationship. He was reprimanded, fined $10,000, ordered to forfeit $1,000 a month in pay and retired as a brigadier general.

WOW!
This is not the exception, but the rule! What they did in Abu Ghuraib with men, women and children was even worse while the Jewish pornographers were filming! How many of them were ever convicted?

The military always had their problems, but they destroyed them internally allowing all these perverts in so that they would be useless if the time ever came when the government needed overthrowing.

Rape of US military women is very common and seldom do these men go to jail. Why the women don’t say “I’m out of here” shows how brain-washed and mind controlled they are. Women would prefer to be debased than tell the US military to take this job and shove it. I’m sure men are also raped by higher officers but may never report it.

Wow.I’m sure this didn’t manifest itself in later life; imagine the crap he did in the past 30 years. Nice haircut, by the way.
I’ve said for years that much of our Army and Marines are the dregs of society; psychopathic morons with an IQ of 79. But then again, I guess that’s what we need to kill men women and children while they “Git ‘er Done”. Peckerwoods, rednecks, and criminals.
Dept. of Justice Stats:
239,000 vets in jails and prisons
460,000 on probation
89,000 on Parole
31% return to civilian life with mental health problems
Some of the biggest scum bags I ever knew were in the military. Of course, (I have to say this so morons don’t think I’m saying ALL are like this) there are many fine individuals serving in the military as well, although they’re misguided, ignorant and naive.
Some, if they weren’t in the military, would be criminals in civilian life.

… this behaviour is “the norm”..
I have known the US Army to be depraved right since the Banker’s American Wars as portrayed in “Gone with the Wind”, Soldier Blue, and others. I am not using Hollywood films as authority, but ever since I was a teenager my homeland was flooded with Jewish porn destined for the US military, with acts of sodomy and bestiality – with GIs having sex with apes!
This made me warn my Biology students during a lesson on venereal diseases (in the eighties) that one day the world would be stricken with a sexual disease for which there would be no cure as a kind of Divine retribution. I was then 100% sure there was a GOD! Then, came AIDS the agents of which were engineered in Fort Dietrich, I believe, and tested on Sodomites, and meant to decimate the Blacks of Africa to start with.
These days European Union is promoting sodomy and homosexuality big time! In the UK to qualify for a job, you need to first accept homosexuality!

While I will admit that the experience of women in the US military is questionable, I always view these kinds of revelations about senior military (and others) with certain skepticism. Destroying someone’s credibility with charges of sexual perversion of one sort or another is a longtime tactic of the Zionists. Look what was done in an attempt to crush Scott Ritter’s credibility when people actually began listening to what he was saying regarding WMD and this push for war against Iran.
This tactic has been employed repeatedly…and it is very effective at silencing critics with otherwise impeccable resumes. This officer may or may not be guilty of what he is accused of. I have absolutely no knowledge of the facts, but I would caution everyone to always look at these kinds of charges with a critical eye.

AMERIKA HAS NO HOPE JUST AS SIMPLE AS THAT, JUST BY READING MOST OF THE COMMENTS WRITTEN ON THESE PARTICULAR “ZIONIST TURD” WITH THE TITLE GENERAL IS ENOUGH TO THROW OFF ALL THE SO CALLED AWAKEN TROOPS OF THE TRUTH. IF YOU ALL HAVE NOT JET BEEN ABLE TO RECOGNISE A ZIONIST JEW, THEN WE DESERVE WHAT THESE CRIMINALS ARE DOING TO THE REPUBLIC, I BY JUST LOOKING AT HIS DAMM FACE CAN TELL THIS BASTARD IS A ZIONIST JEW, AND BY KNOWING WHAT HIS SEXUAL APETATITE IS WHICH IS HOMOSEXUALITY, KNOW HE IS A DAMM ZIONIST JEW, IF IS WORTHLESS FOR VERY FEW PEOPLE TO CONTINUE PUTING UP INFORMATION OF WHAT THE ILLNESS OF OUR NATION IS IF THE IDIOTS READING IT CAN’T EVEN RECOGNISE WHO THE ENEMY IS BY LOOKS AND DEEDS. THEY I SAY LORD JESUS PLEASE COME SOON AND GET YOUR BODY OUT OF THIS PUTRIFYING PLANET, I GIVE UP ON TRYING TO WAKE UP “ROCKS”
