I frankly do not think it would be horrible if we left but I would never think we lost. The Taliban are weak ignorant bigoted communities. They don’t deserve sovereignty over other human beings.

If that is your foreign policy goal why stop with the Taliban (who never attacked us)? Why not launch wars of liberation throughout Africa or, for that matter, against U.S. allied Islamo-fascist dictatorships such as Egypt and Uzbeckistan?

People think it ridiculous but I don’t flinch at this at all.

I really think we ought to come up with something like these popular gifting catalogues for helping others.

Lets list out all the horrible locales of the world and ask the sovereigns of the world if they are willing to take out the bad guys.

We did liberate Liberia under that premise. The US with about a dozen African nations got it done.

All of these rendezvous are inevitable by the end of the century and they are all easier to knock off than the Soviet Union was. The terrorist will gather there if we don’t so waiting them out does little good.

Let’s put Burma up on a ‘Coalition of the Willing’ chopping block. how many nations are willing to liberate and end their role?

—same thing with North Korea. We could even have covert conversations.

There are roughly 60 democracies including Poland, Australia, India and South korea that might opt in to various overthrows. Obama wants to pretend that Afghanistan is unique in this respect. He is just wrong. The US has never gone it alone though it almost always provides the majority of troops [not in Darfur or liberia].

Let’s start having open conversations among democratic sovereigns about carving up the non-democratic sovereigns. The mere conversations would bring about more reform than the UN centric corruption that essentially guarantees protections for the worst offenders of politics.
