bush had the option of sending in the army...locking up tora bora and

The problem was, how many troops do you think it would have taken?
We have close to 80,000 there and that region is still far from
"locked up".

hey genius...guess what? we locked up tora bora AFTER bin laden
escaped. again, i recommend you read the 'new republic' article

Moving in troops takes time and they were out of time if they actually
wanted to stop Osama from crossing the border.

wrong.

he decided the bin ladens had too much money so let osama escape

That was the way the plan was supposed to work. The special Ops people
were in trouble when the local war lords turned against them and there
is no guarantee 1000 or even 10,000 more troops hastily dropped in
there with no real plan, would have turned the tide up in those
mountains. It would have just sent a lot more American kids home in
body bags.

really? got any proof of that?

Casualties in Afghanistan:

gee. people got killed in afghanistan. wow.

you STILL haven't proved we wouldnt have captured bin laden.

oh. none.
Close to GIs 1000 dead so far. Far from none.

and MOST of these would NOT be dead if we'd captured bin laden

read the article

when we DID send in the troops we destroyed the taliban govt
in a matter of weeks.

In Tora Bora?

I didn't think so.

yep. no big deal.

bush just wanted to be incompetent in afghanistan like he is in iraq
