Here is some more on the situation. From an "approved" source.

We've spent $2 trillion, we're less safe, we accomplished nothing, we've sent 5,000 of our soldiers to their graves, injured thousands more, killed 100,000+ civilians, and this is winning? Pass the evaluation sheet back Kissinger. Look up "pyrrhic victory", it'll describe your great triumph that our soldiers aren't getting killed by the hundreds anymore.

Look up Vietnam and tell me that we havent won. No one said that it is pretty. But the war strategy especially the troop surge was successful.
No one said it was a great victory but it wasnt a loss or poor war strategy. Poor post war strategy no doubt. there is a difference.

The troop casualties are miniscule compared to prior wars.

Now I'll help you with your liberal agenda...

Talk about the soldiers coming back with real f.ucked up injuries.

The ironic part of this thread is what is contained in the original link. The thinking of the enemy yet there is such a rush to defend the "innocent" who may not even be innocent.

I have to admit that I don't lose a minute of sleep worrying about these people. I just wish that we had a facility closer to the arctic circle to store them in. As ice cubes. Thaw them out when we figure out what to do with them. or maybe we should just turn them loose in Cuba like Castro did to us. Kinda like a reverse Scarface.

The "world" is not looking out for AMERICA's best interests. As I said in a previous post, please send them to my house. I'm afraid the Govt. isn't looking out for America's best interest either.

of course no one is looking at our best interests-we consider ourselves first as well. we have to take care of ourselves first and foremost, no one else is going to do it for us. hopefully our govt will always remember that we must consider us first, last and always.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth...with the caveat that there be reasonable certainty that retribution is being served upon the deserving party as opposed to the truly innocent.... how many of the Gitmo detainees are truly innocent?... I have no idea

Why is everyone who wanted the troops out of Iraq turning a blind eye towards Afghanistan? Code Pink anyone?

No one is turning a blind eye.
It has turned out to be a giant frggn mess.
Just like it always has been for anyone trying
to tame this country of clans.

And it spills into Pakistan. Its scary.
Blind eye?
