Meanwhile, we are arming AQ in Benghazi and it bites us on the a**.
Now this is as Ironic as the Vietnamese wanting our help.
To paraphrase Jeremiah Wright: America’s chicken manure is comin’ home... to roost! And it’s now a cascade of fail.
This is getting rich. Soon we’ll hear the president of Afghanistan tell 0bama to “hurry up and get the F out so Russia can help us.”
That would be a terrible humiliation for the U.S. but it would be a natural consequence of 0bama’s actions and inactions.
U.S. looking more and more pathetic as our ‘allies’ have to turn to Russia for help.
...
Yep. The girly man in the White House is unreliable. He’s coming up with new rules for breastfeeding soldiers, while Russia is getting appropriately medieval.
Our allies are turning to Russia and China for help. Not good. Not good at all.
that’s okay. All that matters in the United States is girl power. You go girl. And gay and transsexual and god knows what the hell other freaks rights. Black lives matter or something like that. And legal Hispanics clamoring about letting 30 million illegal immigrants stay in the country. Regardless of the murders rapes or DWI. And check your white privilege.
I thought the 80s were over, and war was obsolete. What happened? It’s almost like reality finally became impossible to ignore.
I find the timing intriguing... Russia is consolidating its influence right before 2016.. Talk about a bold power grab. I must say Chechnya... At least they will loose the dogs of war, unfortunately, we are on the opposite side.. Now in a proxy war with Russia.. Ronnie & Maggie would be appalled.
As unsavory as he is, we established a fairly close working relationship with Gen. Dostum as we joined with the Northern Alliance in 2001 to drive the Taliban out of Mazar-e-Sharif and surrounding regions.
I’m thinking Dostum has reviewed his options and determined the Russians would be more resolute in keeping the Taliban from returning to power. Can’t blame him for thinking that way.
Afghanistan is a no-go for any invading or occupying country. The terrain, population and culture will always be in favor of the Taliban.
