[blam]

Now that you have bumped this.

I wonder what happened to all the people who were going to starve in Afghanistan?

[Inge_CAV]

They became wealthy selling all the airdropped food on the black market...........

"They became wealthy selling all the airdropped food on the black market..........."

Yup. I even saw a picture where they had sewn the empty packets together and made at tent.

Oh, they took dancing lessons, bought TVs and pitched their Burqas!

The people in Afghanistan are appreciative of our Arse-kicking the Taliban
and Al-Qaeda!

October 7, 2001, the war in Afghanistan - the War on Terror - began.

Explosions Hit KABUL

Three years and two days later, Afghanistan holds its' first free elections ever!

first election in 5,000 years

In Bamiyan, for instance, Afghans stood in line for up to two hours in the snow to cast their vote.

Puts some Americans to shame. This pic is somewhere in Afghanistan.........

Good post MeekO - thanks!

Great post Meeko! That's what its about! Congrats to Afghani people for their determination and to the men and women of the armed forces who have fought and died. Their actions and sacrifices have not been in vain.

[MeekOneGOP]

Thanks. That BIG pic in #69 is awesome, too! That one and the theatre pic I saw yesterday was the inspiration to do my montage I posted here.

[MeekOneGOP]

Thanks. And Amen!! :^D

[I’m a day late bumping this thread. EIGHT years ago yesterday!]

-And I’m a day late bumping your bump and today Obama gets the Nobel Peace prize - for nothing! It’s a world gone crazy.

[MeekOneGOP]

Obama got ONE thing right, too!

He did absolutely NOTHING to deserve the thing.

(But that is the general rule regarding the NPP
anyway, right!?) ...

[potlatch]

Yes, you are right, the Nobel has been given to a lot of scummy people.

Amazing that even Obama knew he didn’t deserve it - but still accepted it, lol.

Hope you are doing ok!
