"And the truth shall set us free"

[Wonky3]

From Harpers Weekly Review:

A U.N. report found that the Taliban now control more Afghan territory than at any point since the United States invaded the country in 2001, and President Barack Obama extended the timetable for the military's withdrawal from Afghanistan. "We are the ones," said a Taliban spokesman, "who will determine the date of their withdrawal."


A pundit from England once said that Afghanistan is "where empires go to die". God help us if we don't pay attention to history. 



As long as I have breath our military will not get my grandson to bleed out in the rocks and sand of that place of ignorant religious goat herding fanatics. They will either learn to come out of the dark ages on their own or continue to kill and maim one another. They should do it without our help.

What's wrong wonk, the imam obama wanted to hand this place back to the taliban years ago, he just had to give them more american lives. Sooner or later he will feel he has given enough american lives to the muslims and allah and then the rest can come home. In the meantime those poppy fields need to be guarded so we can have that good chiva here in America. It's really a win win, the goat fuckers have employment and we get to drag more of our society down the drain. Then they too will vote democratic. 

More chiva equals more inmates, which is progress towards a socialists dream of free shit. So quit complaining, the road to socialism isn't easy, at least imam obozo is trying.
