". . . The United States and its allies have been forced to launch their biggest military operation of the war in Afghanistan because in the 55 months since ousting the Taliban movement from power, they neglected to establish minimal security or governance in the country’s south, analysts say. . . ."

Uh, er, excuse me but, the problem is that the Taliban get to have sanctuary in PAKISTAN!!!


Thank you.

Dobbins, a former US ambassador, at least got out alive.

Some of the British ambassadors from the old days didn't fair so well.

The tribal areas have never been pacified.

Funny how our problems, both foreign and domestic, are the result of our failure to control borders.

I am sure the props on the Specter Gunship are spooling as we speak.
Come to papa you little freaks.

An utterly simple and correct statement.

Even a blind squirrel will, from time to time, find a nut. :^)

Maybe we should just kill them all, and line the roadsides with their heads on pikes with various swine parts. That may turn back those who have yet to try anything.

Time to get midevil on these animals!

"Funny how our problems, both foreign and domestic, are the result of our failure to control borders."

And just simply not killing enough of them quickly enough.

Amen!!

First of all - here is the link to a blog from my local guy, Mark Larson. Just cursor down and you will see pictures of the US Armada we are showing to NK. It's awesome. Mark was invited to sail on the USS Ronald Reagan recently, and she is scheduled to dock in San Diego sometime during the week of July 4th. I guess a big event is planned. So, Mark is gung-ho about the USRR and loves to talk about his experiences.

But .. Mark also had a great interview today with the Defense Minister of Afghanistan - and one of his statements really made me jump and shout - he said something to the effect that he was happy the Taliban are coming back to the battle .. because now they can die. Here's the link to that interview:

http://www.kogo.com/pages/personalities.html?feed=122446&article=376290

Search for the interview near the bottom of the webpage - it reads like this: Listen to Mark's interview with Afghan Minister of Defense, Gen. Rahim Wardak

It's encouraging!

Browning Automatic Rifle The BAR is another firearm from the era of "craftsman" quality factory production.

Why don't they just BAR them?

The problem was never Afganistan, the problem was always Pakistan, whi created the Taliban.
