I think we thought the guy we put in power was going to take control...Dude is real corrupt. Plus those Taliban types are real fighters, always have been...They got those caves and nothing better to do.

Because people were stupid enough to vote for another warmongering Republicrat and because people were stupid enough to believe the governments lies about 9/11.

Doug · 10-15-10, 11:03 PM

because people are stupid enough to enlist the Army, etc.

if nobody did that you couldn't get a decent war off the ground....

Because Afghanistan has been in a constant state of war for the last 3000 years.

Because their own people wont do anything about it, they probably know their next door neighbor is some nut with a bomb but cant tell anybody

We never should of gine in 1st place

Wast of billions

More terrorists than than 911

I see many here are uneducated. We are there because we went there to chase Bin Laden. Going there because he was there was in part a mistake. The problem is the Taliban have nothing to do with ideological terrorism. They are nationalistic. They don't give a fukk about what we do in America. They care about their little space of land and don't want Americans fukking with it at all.

Here in lies the problem. The Taliban harbor Al Qaeda which is why it becomes an issue now. They don't want us on their land, they really are keeping to themselves but in fact they are harboring the enemy. Can't win either way. Its a battle for culture now. We have relocated 250k people there now living in huts. Just a fukking mess.

If you want some insight and education on this, check out this documentary...
