Since Ralph's been wrong on pretty much everything else Trump has done odds are in his favor he'll be wrong again.

[vette6387]

I am just glad Ralph is retired, because he’s a Clintonista.

[KTM rider]

I put my money on that they will go all out for the poppy's , that will put the hurt on them bigtime

if they salt the ground, they are done for

a war is never won until the enemy loses its will to fight, it doesnt matter what firepower you throw at them , it aint over until they lose the will

[Bobalu]

I also hope Trump is right, I'm putting my faith in him since he has done other things that seemed silly but turned out very well.

The Art Of The Deal!

It seems like Trump and Ralph are in the same page here but his blind neverTrumpism is a major mote in his eye

Trump redefined the mission tonight as killing terrorists
The mission is not trying to turn Afghanistan into the type of society with the type of government we think they should have

The taliban seems to be their preferred government so
We are going to have to sort out the fact that all taliban are not terrorists
Russia is doing it by working with the taliban to go after ISIS and we need to do it too. The enemy of our enemy strategy.
Killing people who plot or aid terrorism against us to is an achievable mission but it is going to take a major adjustment in recognizing who are the terrorists that threaten us vs who are extremists fighting to impose an extreme govt in their own country and who have the support and sympathy of their own people to do so. By warning Pakistan, Trump has indicated they need to stop playing for both teams. Nation building in Afghanistan is not our military mission.. Destroying international terrorists is.

A MOAB a day keeps the Taliban away!

[WMarshal]

The need to create a small drone that snipes of terrorists with 3 round bursts of .50 caliber rounds. It would be a lot cheaper than a hellfire missile.

What he says here is, however, right.

[Gene Eric]

>> And they’ll be expected to accomplish what 140,000 US and allied troops couldn’t achieve at the peak of our engagement,

Really, Ralphy? It’s the same damn mission with the same damn constraints?

Idiot.

[Colonel Kangaroo]

John McCain likes President Trump’s speech and that’s enough for me.

[McGruff]

Still true today.

[grobdriver]

they’ll be expected to accomplish what 140,000 US and allied troops couldn’t achieve

Perhaps - if they have a huge ROE change.

[MayflowerMadam]

Cannot stand traitor Ralph Peters and his Minnie Mouse voice.

[faucetman]

I used to like Ralph, but every once in awhile he reveals his true nature and it is UGLY.

This guy cannot be trusted.

[kabar]

Peters endorsed Hillary. ‘Nuff said.

[jmaroneps37]

Ralph Peters is a special kind of treasonous turd who should be ignored

[Steven Tyler]

Bush killed many of the Tallyban during the opening months of the War.
After that, soldiers were deployed as sitting ducks.

All the past strategies did not work. Time for change.
Free the military to kill the evil losers.

The military chased and killed the Indians on the plains and in the mountains. We should have the knowledge to defeat these guys. General Custer messed up, and others succeeded

“Since Ralph’s been wrong on pretty much everything else Trump has done odds are in his favor he’ll be wrong again.”

I agree. Ralph Peter’s is an idiot.
