This argument is a complete non-starter. None of the countries in question, which have elevated the gay deathstyle to moral equivalence have fought a major war since then.
And I should point out that Israel's military did not perform particularly well in its last major action against Hezbollah. Coincidence? I'm not sure.
As Duncan Hunter said, in America, the backbone of the military is made up primarily of Christian conservatives. When you start moving "out and proud" homosexuals in, you start moving the good Christian conservatives out. In my opinion, that is the real purpose--and danger--of this policy.

And in the future, criticizing such behavior will become and offense worthy of discharge. Count on it.
And in the future, criticizing such behavior will become and offense worthy of discharge. Count on it. You're absolutely correct. Dropping DADT and openly admitting homosexuals will begin a long march toward making it an actually preferred lifestyle. First will come the inevitable "sensitivity training." Then the general orders prohibiting "hate speech" toward homosexuals. Selection boards will be given "quotas" for numbers of homosexuals to be advanced. Service academies will have reserved appointments for homosexuals. There will be years of "firsts" -- each one heralded as the greatest civil rights victory since Rosa Parks. "First Gay Recruits!" "First Gay Commanding Officer!" "First Gay Admiral!" (although I believe Sestak should have that honorary title).
Officers who want to advance to high rank will have to outdo each other in their special observances of Gay Appreciation Week (which will eventually become Gay Appreciation Month).
