I had high hopes for Karzi when he first stepped on the stage. Now, he needs to either step down or support the US 100%. If he doesn’t want our help, then fine, we’re outta there.

Bottom line is, in a number of these events we most certainly would be better off putting trigger pullers through those doors, not JDAMs ontop of them.

Yes, there is more immediate risk, to the boots going in... but years in to a war like this, there is much more prolonged risk by not taking that risk up front through those doors.....Now this is not in all cases. But in some of these situations the Civ casualty risk / enemy KIA reward is not worth it.

With that said, Karzai can pound sand if I could have comments behind closed doors with him. And hopefully some within the current Admin are telling him such (as the past Administration most certainly did).
