Butt, butt, butt pedo joe said they have their own troops and equipment so they need to decide which way this goes. Dumbassery writ YUGE!

[Shadow44]

This was inevitable and the Pentagon know this at least 15 years ago. What a colossal waste of blood and money.

[cld51860]

Well, that didn’t take long, did it?

[bk1000]

Yup. Wouldn’t matter if we stayed 100 years. The day we left everything would revert.

[rktman]

Yup. We should have been gone by 2005. Or earlier.

[ScottinVA]

The Taliban will be rolling through Kabul inside of two weeks.

Anyone with knowledge of the region knew that. I wonder if the Bush II / Cheney / Rumsfeld triumvirate bothered to ask any experts before they started their adventure.

[DIRTYSECRET]

It’s ok. They’ll use the captured weapons against the Chicoms.

[Leaning Right]

I can’t believe the ChiComs would be stupid enough to invade Afghanistan. After all, Afghanistan is not Tibet.

The smart move for China would be to leave the tanks at home, and get what they want by bribing the local warlords. No nation-building. No trying to change their culture. None of that stuff.

[libh8er]

But … Bush had said he was going turn Afghanistan into a stable democracy in a few years and then we would be out of there.

And there’s the path for all the refugees to cross into Turkey and with it, eventually the rest of Europe and the US.

Democrats cannot be trusted with National Security

[rktman]

Yeah, I’m thinkin’ the results may be different with the ccp folks. Of course the soviets were pretty brutal when they wasted ten years there.

[gcparent]

When will they close our embassy and let diplomats and last of our troops leave?

[rktman]

Or anything of importance or value.

[CIB-173RDABN]

and get what they want by bribing the local warlords.

Like they do with our media and politicians

Don't insult them. Don't you know THEY were the experts?

[dfwgator]

Democrats cannot be trusted with National Security

Can Republicans?

[Katya]

absolutely -_-

[BeauBo]

Maybe they plan to celebrate 9-11 in the burned out husk of the embassy in Kabul...
