It certainly is not because they supported OBL 10 years ago. We killed or captured everyone who knew OBL, everyone who knew someone who knew him and everyone who knew them. Now we are down to killing people who were not even old enough in 2001 to know about 9-11 We are fighting the Taliban because we don't muslims and the way they want to live their religion. That is racist. The Taliban want to "live their religion" by forcing it down the throats of others who want to live otherwise. There are similarities in that to certain religious groups in this country. Religious fundamentalism is almost always evil. I am still not sure it is the job of the US to fight another country's choice in religion, particularly when they don't really want us there doing it. Afghanistan is just another case of the US sanctioning a rigged election to get a US friendly corrupt dictator in there who turns out not to be that US friendly. The day we stop paying him, he will be Taliban. He even said so. I don't know that it is our fight, either. The sooner we get out of there, the better. I agree... the sooner the better... but not too soon. |
