While i supported Bush at the time i thought i understood what Afghanistan and Iraq we’re all about. I was wrong. I believed that we went to Afghanistan to destroy the Taliban and hopefully catch Bin Laden, and Iraq to put a force powerful enough on Iran’s eastern and western border to surround them and contain them and foment insurrection and when the time was right invade and kill the ayatollahs. All of that was wishful thinking!!! It’s clear we have leaders in both parties who’s only concerns are personal and not the far reaching goals of a peaceful world. Ideas can be dangerous things, especially religious ideas that foment barbarous, murderous beliefs of moral superiority.

If we are fighting a backwards culture you always must go in like the fist of an angry god and just a quickly leave like a thief in the night....
That is the only damned thing these primitives understand and respect is forces of nature so we HAVE TO BECOME A RESPECTED FORCE OF NATURE!
