The following report is by the Independent.ie:
Every member of the Defence Forces is to undergo training in gender, diversity and unconscious bias under a new programme .
The military has put out a tender for online and in-person training programmes for roughly 8,000 staff after a report last year raised concerns about a masculine culture within the Defence Forces.
This will include bespoke programmes within military settings in locations around the country.
In a tender notice published this week, the Defence Forces said it was “striving to better represent the society they are committed to serve, as Ireland’s population becomes increasingly diverse”.
It follows a recommendation by the Commission on the Defence Forces (CODF) that training in the areas of gender, diversity and unconscious bias should be made mandatory.
The training will also be targeted toward the organisation’s senior leadership team and “should be designed to focus on real-life issues relating to areas of relevance” to the military, including military scenarios and material.
The Irish Defence Forces have a responsibility to create a working environment in which differences are respected and in which all staff are respected and valued as individuals.
The Defence Forces are seeking an external company to design and deliver a bespoke package on gender, diversity and unconscious bias, grounded in a military context.
The tender states.
The deadline for the tender is at the end of this month.
Essential criteria required include the capability to link the training with military relevance.
In its report, published in February last year, the commission said it was “particularly concerned” about the masculine culture across the Defence Forces, which had “a limited appreciation of diversity of all kinds”.
This culture is compounded by the inadequacy of existing grievance processes, where there is a reluctance to engage, due in many cases to fear of reprisal if complaints are aired, and particularly so if the complainant is part of a minority, particularly women in a male-dominated environment.
The report found
The commission recommended that gender, diversity and unconscious bias training should be specifically tailored and conducted annually for strategic and operational leaders, and for specified office holders.
A spokesperson for the Defence Forces said:
Since the publication of the Commission on the Defence Forces report, both the Defence Forces and the Department of Defence identified and recommended the prioritisation of early actions.
The early actions progressed a number of key recommendations from the CODF report, whilst also providing the necessary building blocks to develop a detailed implementation plan. ‘Gender, diversity and unconscious bias training should become mandatory across all ranks of the Defence Forces’, is a recommendation in the CODF report, which was identified as an achievable early action in the form of ‘Gender, Diversity and Unconscious Bias training designed’.
It is intended that the training will commence once the winning tender has prepared and designed the bespoke package for the Defence Forces.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
America are not the only ones with a softened and woke-joke military: many European forces are just as bad. Instead of actually getting real training and conditioning, they are more concerned with pronouns and “offending” each other.
And these are the people who will be called upon to defend the country and be deployed in combat if need be?
A sword is upon the liars; and they shall dote: a sword is upon her mighty men; and they shall be dismayed.
Jeremiah 50:36
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

For Pete’s sake! Any country with this woke sodomite sex pervert respect my pronouns hubbub they might as well say “alright China and Russia: invade us!” China, Russia, North Korea, even the Bahamas that just have a Navy will rip those nations apart blindfolded!
If I built my own military, it will be ALL men and King James Bible believing and fearing men that are humble, kind, disciplined, vigilant, militant, and in combat, fierce and hardcore aggressors, and all it is is an Army, a Navy, and an Air Force.
Reminds the devils & their minions too much of God, our Lord Jesus Christ & King…..& their coming end at his judgment & word. Disturbs their delusion, drunkenness & porneia. And as for those rods of the Lord’s chastisement: just as evil & with even less hope of salvation having rejected all truth & embraced & submitted to the cold, genderless, anti-life, anti-family, anti-life & unnatural antichrist Serpent-Dragon spirit & philosophy of godmen & google.

They’re in blindness & bondage, & will die in their turn. Babylon in unity with Elam, the Persians & Medes was used in judgment of Egypt& Assyria after Egypt & Jeroboam, & Assyria was used in the judgment of the ten tribes of Northern Israel…and the Lord fought for & protected little Judah & Jerusalem in type of what’s coming.

We’re fresh out of Oliver Cromwell types & all we have left seem to be children, video game & Marvel comic thinking types. America is not going to stand in the way of the fulfillment of God’s revealed word, & now has nothing to distinguish it from the rest of the lightness of the nations being gathered to judgment: the dumbing down & demoralization only works in the absence of the word in the minds & hearts of men, & with humility, sense & repentance replaced by pride.

2Ki 19:34 For I will defend this city, to save it, for mine own sake, and for my servant David’s sake.
2Ki 19:35 ¶ And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the LORD went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians an hundred fourscore and five thousand: and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses.
2Ki 19:36 So Sennacherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh.
2Ki 19:37 And it came to pass, as he was worshipping in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword: and they escaped into the land of Armenia. And Esarhaddon his son reigned in his stead.

That’s what the Lord thinks of their Serpent-Dragon ‘superior’ knowledge & supposed ‘masculinity’ & military; and what their self-righteous & -justifying, self-deifying lies, thefts, rapes & murders ‘win’ for them ……….all of them given to pederasty & sodomy against the ‘lessers’, to bring them into submission the Devil’s way, according to the spirit they serve. Fakes.

But God is not mocked, & though he suffers it due to sin, he will not bless it in the end, & any illicit ‘victory’ they have, sinner against sinner…or sin they think themselves ‘getting away with’ drawing their circle to take sin & darkness into unity with themselves, is just delusion leading them to even greater judgment until that day when they shall say ‘Peace & safety’, but then sudden destruction, & they shall not escape.
What a bunch of educated claptrap, what we need they say is army of qualified sissys and limp-wristed dress wearing whimps. Boy o boy, what has this world become. Nowadays it seems like ants are stronger then man. All we can do is pray that our Lord Jesus Christ comes soon Amen
