As soon as Obama took the oath of office for the 1st, 2nd or 3rd time he became responsible for everything within the USA and without the USA, that includes Iraq and Afghanistan. Obama owns whatever happens in Afghanistan. Something about the buck stops here. You don't get the glory without the ****. |

Don't you think we should cut the lad a little slack? |

It is an issue with crappy journalism. The headlines should read "Darwin idiots try to steal fuel in war zone get killed". Or perhaps "Taliban relatives try to steal fuel get themselves killed." |

What are our objectives in Afghanistan? Why are we there? There is about as much linkage to 911 as there was with Iraq, another stupid war Obama said he would stop. Obama just seems to be Bush with a better tan. Huh? He never said he would end the war in Afghanistan on 1/20. There's straight-line linkage to 9/11, as you know. Should we let the Taliban regain control, then invite bin laden back in, just when Pakistan is finally getting down to business with him? -- Nom=de=Plume |

Should we let the Taliban regain control, then invite bin laden back in, just when Pakistan is finally getting down to business with him? The 911 crew was virtually all Saudi, as is OBL. The Taliban has never been linked to 911. Just exactly where is the link? Besides that they were harboring Al Qaeda none at all. Besides that the crew was trained and directed by bin Ladin none at all. We are making more potential terrorists every day than we have actually killed in the whole sordid invasion/occupation. The Afghanis are saying we are worse than the Soviets. Some are, some aren't. Don't get me wrong, I don't think we need to continue it any longer than absolutely necessary, and I'm very concerned about the apparent fraudulent election that just happened. But, we need to be very cautious about leaving without getting the current gov't more able to deal with the Taliban. This is what's going on right now in Iraq. The jury is still out, but it's at least possible that the Maliki gov't can deal with the insurgents. Our incursion is actually destabilizing Pakistan, the real fear we should have. We don't do it very much, and Pakistan seems to be doing a good job themselves. -- Nom=de=Plume |

We don't do it very much, and Pakistan seems to be doing a good job themselves. We have no reason to believe the Taliban had anything to do with Al Qaeda until we drove them together. As far as we know the 911 attack was actually planned in Europe. There were plenty of sightings of the hijackers around western Europe. They seemed to come in via Canada. I am still not sure where the Afghanistan connection was and our wholesale killing of civilians sure isn't helping us fight terrorism. It just creates more terrorists. It seems pretty clear to me there was a strong connection: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taliban...sama_bin_Laden I'm not sure where they entered from or where the specific attack was planned... Germany I recall... We're not killing civilians wholesale, and in fact we're trying to avoid killing them at all. Gosh that doesn't sound particuarly great does it? Anyway, it certainly been a change of policy to minimize the deaths. More than one is unacceptable, but I'm not sure how we can avoid it completely. I'm not a military expert. -- Nom=de=Plume |

There were strings attached, and I can't blame Bush for not accepting the offers, but, with hindsight, perhaps, there was enough of an opening that with diplomacy, we could have avoided this war. The Taliban, at the time, wasn't the enemy. Bin Laden was, and still is. |

The Taliban, at the time, wasn't the enemy. Bin Laden was, and still is. That's right. Unfortunately, that ship has sailed. I've heard that there is still a possibility of dealing with the less radical elements of the Taliban, and there's a general movement toward a "diplomatic" solution involving the US, the Taliban, Pakistan, and India. The latter is Pakistan's real focus, which is why I've heard they would like Afganistan to remain unstable... so it doesn't become an Indian ally. -- Nom=de=Plume |
