Iraqi policewomen have to give up their Glocks.

When U.S. soldiers rebuilt the Iraqi police force starting in 2004 they recruited a lot of women. But as we stood down, the Iraqis stood up and stopped hiring women. Policewomen already on the streets were transferred to desk jobs, and they're no longer allowed to have guns. Mind you, Iraqi policemen on desk jobs have guns to protect themselves after work, but not women.

An Iraqi official says, "Females are taken care of by men in this country."

Iraqi men like their women. They like them unarmed.
