As Iraq settles down Afghanistan seems to be bubbling over, I presume President Elect Obama has a solution beyond invading Pakistan.

It'll be interesting how the Obama faced with reality responds to the real world...

This report makes me sick to my stomach. Oh No.

God protect our forces overseas, especially those in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Not those expensive HumVees!!! Terrible. Who was supposed to be guarding the supplies?

Anyone think that A-10 Combat Air Patrols would be effective in protecting these sites?

Obviously they guard their culture of death over there, tying our hands.

It’s like antispanking laws, parents cannot counter the government or liberal culture of exploitation by teaching their children better. Self employment, self defense, national defense, all of this is not PC. We have to be multi cultural and pro UN homo losers.

“Let me make this clear. There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans,” Obama said.

“They are plotting to strike again . . . If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won’t act, we will.”

I think as the islamic radicals expand their sphere of influence in an ever widing circle, it lends itself more easily to a solution by B-53 (Mk-53) High yield strategic thermonuclear bomb.

They know that 0bama is a poseur.

There is real danger that 0bama will try to act tough without thinking through the consequences.
