I don't think that's happening in Afg. right now... at least not
from our
side. I could be wrong. In any case, you've identified the problem
that we
shouldn't be there for the long term certainly or in Iraq any longer
than
humanly possible. So, what's your solution? If we "just leave," a
lot more
civilians would die, at least that's what all the generals are
saying.

So what? That will happen whenever we leave. We had the same
experience in Vietnam but a few years later everything worked itself
out and now they are members of the global economy. Have you looked
at
the country of manufacture of wooden furniture lately?


According to who? The more stable we can make it, the fewer lives will
be
lost. So, your solution is.....

Get the hell out and let the big dog eat.

We are not in Iran and they look like they are going to throw out the
mullahs all on their own (perhaps with a little covert help from the
CIA)



Basically, you're saying that even though we broke it, we'll let a
massacre take place and that's ok. It isn't.

If we got out tomorrow, there will be civil war of 3-6 months. Until
they decide what they want as a country. If we get out in 10 years,
there will be civil war of 3-6 months. Until they decide what they want
as a country.



According to Bill McKee, the expert in foreign relations.

Why don't you tell us about your many patents again.

You are the one who claims to be a patent attorney.

Feel free not to believe me.

I just loved your claim... you provide no name, no identifying information
beyond your fake name. The PTO database lists two (as I recall) under that
name, and you claim they're not yours. Basically, you're a liar. You have no
patents.
