The most thorough explanation I've ever seen of the background of the situation in Afghanistan.

[austinTparty]

" I believe that in many ways the previous administration was responsible for keeping the Taliban in power"

read article, please, for full picture!

[austinTparty]

Long, but worth it.

[austinTparty]

ping, mon frere. worth it to slog through.

[austinTparty]

ping. Long, but interesting and thorough explanation of what's going on in Afghanistan.

[Quix]

WISDOM, KNOWLEDGEABLE, CARING, RESPONSIBLE.

Ignorance and self-serving idiocy alone would ignore these facts.

Pray our leadership are not guilty of such. . . . particularly in the congress and cabinet.

I hope the KLA hears this.

[Former_russian]

I heard some of it on CSPAN - excellent, thanks!

[RikaStrom]

Bump for later read!

[GOP_1900AD]

Wow!

[Roebucks]

Thanks for the ping!

Rep. Rohrabacher gives us a unique insight into the background of Afghanistan as well as the events that led to this evil regime taking power there. Great speech!

[MrConfettiMan]

Interesting. Thanks for posting it.

[BobP]

I saw him on CSPAN this aftenoon.

Thanks for posting it.

[deener]

Thanks so much for this article. He is my congressman in CA. and is a straight shooting guy. He was way ahead of everyone else in pointing out the problems with illegals crossing the southern border in CA. but was always getting "pooh poohed" and labeled racist.

[austinTparty]

Wow! Y'all got a peach of a Rep there... I was so impressed by the speech (I saw it first on CSPAN, then looked it up on the Net).

[austinTparty]

I saw him on CSPAN, too... that's what incited me to look this up and post it. I was spellbound.

[austinTparty]

You're welcome. He explained so well the whole Saudi, Pakistani and Russian interest... oil, drugs and fanaticism... not to mention Clinton's complicity.

[austinTparty]

I knew that you would have the attention span to go through the whole thing... it connected a lot of dots I was unaware of...

[Roebucks]

What really puzzles me the most about all of this is our intelligence failure. Absolute failure. If we had representatives in congress with this kind of knowledge, together with the fact that this group had already successfully targeted and terrorized us before on multiple occasions, how could we not know this was coming, prepare for it and prevent it?

I know, I know- Clinton. The b!stard should hang for treason.
