Gee i maybe mistaken but i seem to remember, that it was a democrat congressman from Texas that was responsible for funneling all the money to the mujaheddin in Afghanistan, Hoping to do to the soviets ,what they and the Chinese did to us when we were involved in Vietnam,,,,,,,Which was to use proxy's to bleed us out,while not being directly involved,,,,,,,many thanks to Charlie Wilson for not looking forward,in his zeal to punish the soviets,,,,
His goal was to bleed the russians and his tools to do that were the afgan people and the US taxpayer,,,unfortunately both groups are still paying the price
We can pull out, but if we do, would the American populace be willing to raze Kabul along with many other targets after the Taliban reclaim the country and make a haven for Al Qaida again?
Good recitation of neo-con talking points -- straight from the Luntz catachism.
Reality is messy, but ignored at great peril. First, the Afghans are reacting exactly as we would had we had been subjected to 8 years of brutal occupation by Afghanistan.
The age of occupation, like slavery, is toast, like it or not. The longer we extend the occupation, the greater the threat to whatever remains of our own Bill of Rights -- not in the neo-con talking points, right? The way out, as even the work of DOD's own U. Chicago lad,Prof. Robert Pape, concludes is to end the occupation, stop killing the people of Afghanistan as well as our jobs and futures.
I'm really touched that you profess to be concerned about the fate of Kabul despite the fact that the longer the troops stay, the greater the massacre.
Nazification act = still here.
Fatherland security = still here.
War on Iraq = still here.
War on Afghanistan = still here.
War on Pakistan = BRING IT ON!!!!
Nazification act = slowly being dismantled
Fatherland Security = backing away from paranoia
War on Iraq = trying to pull out
War on Afghanistan = might actually win that one
