After the second world war, the combination of a huge Allied
(primarily US Navy) occupying force in Naples and tight control
of the city by local organized crime results in a situation
where a large fraction of the women in the city (close to half)
were forced into prostitution.

It was not exactly the U.S. military's proudest moment.

It's already happening in Iraq. I was reading an article in the
current Marie Claire about Iraqi women who have fled to Amman Jordan
and are now prostitutes. It's a pretty disturbing article.

Good for Marie Claire for reporting this story.

MC isn't exactly the kind of magazine a guy normally looks forward to,
but I read it cover to cover every month. Every month there's
something in it that I've never heard about and I'm a news junkie. It
seems so much of the "real" news doesn't make mainstream media.

History repeats itself; in the aftermath of World War II, it
was Vogue that reported on some of this stuff going on that
the rest of the media wouldn't touch.

I'm sure there's a LOT going on now they don't want to touch either.
