it’s just really hard to like these people.
Not if you're George Bush. He made Karzai the guest of honor at one of his SOTU speeches. Real big deal it was, celebrating democracy in Afghanistan.
just a way to demoralize the troops some more. Our TOFUS is going to pull the plug on this operation. He's already turned down the blanket and basically killed recruiting patriots and men into the armed forces. ROE that make it bad to kill the enemy, gay men kissing on homecoming in front of kids, emboldened JAG officers that will make their bones with discrimination prosecutions in the armed forces and on and on.
I saw a commercial for the Marines and on one of the crates "Humanitarian Aid" was computer generated onto the box. funny as heck ... this big amphibious attack and that was on a box..hahahahahaha. pathetic.
Nation building was a huge mistake on many fronts.
We simply should have used “shock and awe” to take out our enemies as quickly as possible and left. And said we’ll return and do more of the same only on a larger scale if they continue to attempt to kill Americans.
Otherwise leave them to their hell hole. They like it.
These people will always support the side that is of their own blood... does not matter if that person killed one of them. They judge that as less than the death of one of theirs (no matter if Taliban or terrorist) than death by the hand of one of ours..EVEN IF THAT DEATH WAS TO SAVE ONE OF THEIRS!!!! Get the hell out of that piss hole! I remember Reagan presidency and watching the Russians wallowing in that quagmire. Never would have believed that the “oh so intelligentsia” in our government would have introduced us to this crap.
Time for the “demons” to depart and leave the angels of Islam to rape and torure each other in peace.
