Iraq all about Israel, as the upcoming Iran war will be.
Afg was and is a useless war. There is nothing to win there.

except the death of al qaida's influence


We are making them more powerful and Pakistan is about ready to kick
US out. They are refusing to let us use their roads now to supply our
troops.


then why are the taliban in negotiations, when our key demand is to
cut ties with AQ?

go ahead. find a resource saying AQ is more powerful today than it was
9 years ago.

i'll wait.


Beating the Taliban is like pushing mercury around in a bowl with your
finger. You can move it but it is still all there and it fills in
behind your finger.
How many years are you planning on being there, pushing these guys
around the mountains? This is Vietnam all over again.
In Vietnam we never lost a battle and we still lost the war.

Well actually I think that is the only war we did win in the 20th
century.
In every other war we had, we still have 50,000+ troops occupying the
country. We are out of Vietnam and they are now trading freely with us
and the rest of the world.

and you're an idiot if you think pakistan is going to kick us out and
lose the billions we bribe them with


They have denied us the use of the only road to Afghanistan.
That is certainly a sign that they want us to stop the war ... in
spite of our bribes. I am sure we will patch that up but the writing
is on the wall.


They haven't denied us the use of the road. They closed it for a couple of
days.
