This situation is why we have no business in thinking we can control the world. If this nation would have stuck to our own business instead of allowing the elites to run it we could care less about Afganistan. But since we are not allowed to be self sufficient we are surrounded by these problems. This won't go away either. After the oil pipeline who will maintain it? So this region will be divided up amongst the powers. And the perpitrators will be hated all the more. The breadbasket of terrorism is Iran. Do you think for one moment that we will do anything to that country?? Absolutly not. Ergo your so-called war is a farce. BTW I give GW credit on the way he is undertaking it with the least amount of "collateral damage" ie. your sons & daughters in combat.

Exactly. For too long, we have not listened to George Wahington's warnings of "foreign entanglements."
