“You know, FRiend, I really couldn’t care less. Afghanistan’s internal affairs are really none of our problem. “

Afghanistan is a tribal country ruled by tribal warlords.

It is not possible to “civilize” a region that does not want to be civilized.

All we are doing there is getting our troops killed and spending money we don’t have. We have no business being there.

The Democrats kept saying that this was the “right” war to be fighting simply to beat the Bush administration with it. Now we are there and our idiot of a President hasn’t a f***king clue as to what to do next.

I do not want the US to waste another dime “reconstructing” either Afghanistan or Iraq. The tribal savages in Afghanistan will only end up stripping the copper off the pipes after we leave. Let them go back to warring among themselves. The lesson they will have learned by our presence there is that if they ever harbor and concoct another terrorist scheme against the US on their land they better do it while there is a Democrat administration in Washington.

Continued prayers for General Petraeus and those he commands.
