As we wrote today, CIA boss General Petraeus resigns, not because of war crimes under his watch in Iraq or Afghanistan, or of CIA torture. Not because of rape. Because of a consensual sexual relationship.

On the same day, the same happens with the boss of Lockheed Martin merchants of death corporation. Not for being a merchant of death. Not because of rape. Because of a consensual sexual relationship.

Lockheed Martin executive quits over relationship

US defence company Lockheed Martin says its incoming president and chief executive officer has resigned over a relationship with a subordinate.

Christopher Kubasik resigned after an internal ethics investigation confirmed the “close personal relationship”, the company said in a statement.

He was due to take over as head of the company next year after serving as its chief operating officer.

Another Lockheed executive, Marillyn Hewson, will now become CEO in January.

…

Lockheed Martin is a defence and aerospace company based in Maryland that employs some 120,000 worldwide.

Its net sales for 2011 were $46.5bn (£29bn).
