The United States commenced hostilities against Afghanistan in the fall of 2001 to put a halt to atrocities like those described in the news video below.
The question is this: Why are these savages still in control of entire provinces of Afghanistan?
If, after eleven years, two thousand American lives, and untold billions of dollars, the mightiest and best-equipped military in the world can’t accomplish its assigned mission, why hasn’t it been pulled out?
Many thanks to Vlad Tepes for uploading this video:
Because it needs to stop the Taliban and Al Q’aeda using Afghan territory for terrorist training.
Oh wait, terrorists are already being trained – in English forests…
The Taliban is a red herring – opium is the issue. The opium/heroin trade is worth billions – does anyone really believe that the two-faced crooks running the West would turn their noses up at the opportunity of getting a piece of the action? The mass cultivation of poppies could be eliminated in a good week – satellite images, jet fighters, agent orange. It’s not being done because the powers that be don’t want it done.
