Chapter 51 Elder daughter, Anat (3) Married life with an elite (2/3)

 

Of course, she was enough wise not to forget the role of a virtuous and modest wife who obeyed her husband in public. In a military organization which requested absolute obedience, it was appreciated for wives to show an attitude of submission to their husband.

 

At the meeting of the wives of the officer's club, the order of the husband became automatically the order of the wife. The higher the rank of the husband, the stronger the position of the wife. Therefore, her husband had to be promoted at all costs. Anat's purpose in life was to make her husband an airforce general like her father. This strategy had worked well since her marriage.

 

(It did well until very recently ------------)

 

Suddenly she frowned.

<I am anxious about nonsense. >

She muttered and scrolled e-mail list. When one mail caught her eye, she spoke to her father.

  (Japanese Version)   Part II. Ethnic cleanser (21)   Chapter 42 At the party in Embassy (3) Wives of US military officers (2/3)   As a matter of fact, ladies were already bored to their husbands who talked about their bravery about the Second World War in 1940s or the Korean War of several years ago. These hero stories were worse than flat champagne. Nevertheless, their husbands kept repeating the same stories at the parties, and made the women sick and tired.   It was the height of the Cold War.

  (Japanese Version)   Part I. Israel bombs a nuclear plant in Iran (63)   Chapter 24 US Military embarks on (1) Kill before you are killed (1/2)   The turmoil in the Persian Gulf region was further escalated by the US containment policy of Iran, which was triggered by the alleged nuclear development in Iran.

For the United States, Israel itself was located far from U.S. where was geographically on the opposite side of the world beyond the Atlantic Ocean. And Israel was not so much economic significance for U.S. Nevertheless, the United States supported Israel because politicians were manipulated by the pressure of the Israe...
