I agree. *NM* Stephen Send a noteboard - 13/01/2012 08:11:57 PM
But I do. We have absolutely no business going over there to be some kind of "guiding light" saviormobile if we're going to do things to these people that we would drop bombs on someone's ass for doing to us. I suppose one could claim that we're there primarily to kill future threats to our country, but that certainly isn't the only reason we gave when we said this was an important war. And any one person there who might have helped us because he/she disagreed with a brother or uncle for aiding the Taliban might feel differently after they find out that that brother was killed and then pissed on by an American. They are people.

I understand the anger from the soldiers, but good lord. Fucking idiots.

Actually, IIRC, we were told the Afghanistan war was important because of the Talibans threat to us. - 14/01/2012 11:18:28 PM 785 Views
Yes, that was part of it. Of course. AND we were going to help bring democracy. - 15/01/2012 12:42:57 AM 752 Views
