I wonder if this will persuade the liberal bleeding hearts who complain that we are actually killing the enemy in Afghanistan that it's dangerous to let terrorists go about their business. We have very good reasons for finishing them off, because they won't stop doing this kind of thing, or worse, until we've nailed all of them.

"The people who did this meant to destroy the peace and tranquility of our city," Sherzod said.My heart goes out to the victims of this cowardly attack, but peace and tranquility are two concepts generally not associated with Afghanistan over the last 2400 years...

Ahh, and now starts the real war. Now you'll see what the Soviets saw. They never came in to occupy but to propt up the Federal Afghan government as it fought the insurgency that did the same kind of thing. Watch, my bet is that the new international forces will get quickly sucked into the same thing. The problem is, tracking down a few hundred psychopaths spread out over the country side takes a lot more forces since you never know where the pricks will roll a grenade or snipe at someone. But if you don't take them out, then they grow stronger, get more converts who have a similar mindset and see things working and then you're back to civil war...all the mean time you loose troops in a slow grind.

With as much ordnance that is on the loose there, I'm surprised something like this hasn't happened earlier.
