If you mean we shouldn't be there as in Iraq and Afghanistan, I can tell you that our military women are not required to wear burkhas there. But we are also stationed in other countries. Kuwait, Saudi, Emirates, and the list goes on. I do not know what countries might require women to wear burkhas, but if it is part of our agreement with that country for women to dress like thus for us to be there than I feel we should respect it. Our service members are not allowed to have alcohol over "there" (there being the Middle East) because of our agreement with those governments.
So, which "there" are you talking about?
