    Afghanistan,

    can it ever be justified? What is the real purpose of us being there? History repeats itself, over and over again. Another misjudgement?

    Now we have US soldiers, peeing on dead Taliban feighters. Grotesque, isn't it? Hillary is trying to stay in damage control, so its allright to go there, kill their soldiers, but boy you are in touble for peeing on them.

    And then we got the real face of war.....

    Bush thought we could slap the Taliban senseless and get the TAPI pipeline to Dabhol .. Fools errand.

    How many of the injured people are the result of the war between Sunni and Shiite Muslims? Probably all of those in the above film. The muslims in their stupid religious war inflict far more death and destruction on each other than allied forces do.
    Perhaps you can post some films of public hangings, shooting executions, hands and feet being sliced off and women being stoned to death under Taliban rule.

    What was Russia doing in Afganistan?

    BLANK

    What are we doing in Afganistan?

    BLANKETY BLANKS

    The allied forces in Iraq and Afganistan are responsible for hundreds of thousands (if not over a million) of civilian deaths in those countries.

    George W bush, Tony Blair and John Howard are war criminals and should be jailed.

    Yeap, you are probately right there, except ...
    ...look at Iraq, the war has just begun, as soon as the last US soldier left, now as no cruel leader like Saddam is keeping those religious forces apart from one another. Christians are fleeing the country, and the rest of those tribes (mainly Muslim I agree) are fighting one another like stupid!
    The West hasn't understood, that freedom and liberty is something which needs to be learned, and cannot be forced upon people.
    I agree, all Taliban in a hole and put a lid on, but don't forget to throw all the others in there as well, those behind the scenes, who make those dirty wars likely and possible, for their own gain..........
