Beck stays suspended above the shark
It never passed the smell test with me either. I’m all for kicking someone’s ass but it smelled to me like finishing the work daddy started.
Liberal opposition to the war in Iraq, which liberals in congress voted for at the time because they knew that most Americans were thirsting for revenge for 9-11, was late formed and only because it was a stick in the eye to W.
Hindsight, very useful and safe. Everyone can say what they would have done after the game is over.
My hindsight is actually foresight. Do not wage war unless you are committed to a WWII policy, unconditional surrender, victor writes the rules, victor tries and executes government and military for crimes against humanity.
Afghanistan’s “constitution” was written by Eurocrats in Belgium I believe.
The piece they allowed or even put in on their own (they love to suck up to Satanists—Islamists) was that no part of this constitution would conflict with Sharia Law.
So, follow the thread, USSR invades to support a puppet coup that eliminated the sitting Afghan King.
Then to add idiocy to lunacy the US gives the Islamists Stinger missiles, hooray, then the US adds to the pointless carnage and puts troops on the ground, well, 13 years later the US is retreating again.
All was for NOTHING! Just as in Iraq, as in Korea, as in Viet Nam. For nothing.
I have a right to say this. Build your memorials, commemorate the dead, leave widows and sisters and brothers and fathers and mothers, leave the friends to weep and to wave the flag for the young Americans who died.
I don’t. I won’t. These people were sacrificed for no reason.
Or not, were you there?
Did you see it up close and personal?
I am tired of pointing this out, but I will again. When you go to war you go to win. And you write the rules under unconditional surrender. You set the rules that the vanquished will live under.
Anything less is just treason.
We have lived under treason since 1945.
Flame away. I don’t care. I really don’t.
