The English went in thrice. They kicked ass twice. Everyone just remembers the first one.they were there in 1842, when they slaughtered the British. get our people......OUT!
We traded four or five Gitmo detainees for one American solder who has been held in Afghanistan.
Ok, that gives you some warm fuzzy feelings.
But hasn't US policy been for ever that we won't negotiate with terrorists? Why the sudden turn around?
maybe they gave the five Taliban Hodgkin's Lymphoma before they left. "bye, guys.......be well."We got one deserter back and Al-Quaida got 5 of it's top people back. Why??
Because Obama needs to deflect from the Veteran Administration scandal so he does an illegal deal without informing congress in an attempt to help his political career.
At least he is consistent.

I am sure I will regret this, but what the heck is "PC"?the Taliban offered to hand him over. they asked for PC. like you do, when you arrest someone for a crime. we said, "fuck, you......hand him over."
Yeah, everyone I've ever met that served can't wait to get that mission. Suuure.yes........the same men, honing their skills in Afghanistan, will be the stormtroopers, kicking down your door, for your armory. you just told them where it is, and that data has been recorded.
Excluding more ridiculous notions of the US military waging open war on it's citizens, why are we still fighting people in a desert armed with 100 dollar AK's? Oh yeah, because guerrilla warfare is just as effective today as it ever has been.That;s it my man. These sorry paranoid gun religion nut jobs think their measly ar 15 and such will do anything against predator drones, tanks, well trained soldiers with infared, e.m.p.s, airstrikes and such is a funny thing.
"When we let em go, make sure they have plenty of blankets... "maybe they gave the five Taliban Hodgkin's Lymphoma before they left. "bye, guys.......be well."
Those 100 dollar AKs are being used by men that have been fighting for a long long time. Some fought against the russians in the 1980s. Here, too soft, too fat, too satiated on modern trappings to be willing to live in a cave or build lean-tos for shelter. Yes there are some able bodies and yes some are trained. But have you been to a gun show? Have you seen all the budweiser bellies there?Excluding more ridiculous notions of the US military waging open war on it's citizens, why are we still fighting people in a desert armed with 100 dollar AK's? Oh yeah, because guerrilla warfare is just as effective today as it ever has been.
The beauty of this? If that POS deserter doesn't end up in a nice place in Kansas, he can die with poor care thanks to Obamacare or die on a VA list. Same difference. Gotta love the irony.We got one deserter back and Al-Quaida got 5 of it's top people back. Why??

Because we have too many people and it's an effective method of population controlwhy are we still fighting people in a desert armed with 100 dollar AK's? Oh yeah, because guerrilla warfare is just as effective today as it ever has been.
you're a retard and have not presented a single item of evidence in this entire thread, just false right wing talking points.Exactly the point. This fucking POS admin ran on "transparency", which has sooooooooo not happened. Not from day 1. The list is sooooo long it should be a "copy and paste" option on Windows 8. Glad I have an armory in my basement, probably gonna need it before I die.
It was a great excuse to finish what we started in Iraq. Many people don't lump it together - it was smoothly lumped together while the public was screaming for blood over here they took advantage of the opportunity.. n c'mon u think they developed a hatred for us out of thin air? When biased overrides logic an argument becomes nothing more than a timesink. Anyone that can't see that we had a part in this "terrorism" affliction is blind. You guys spend every last breath preaching how terrible government is but turn a blind eye to corruption that fits your own personal agenda, and throw out the term "conspiracy theory" like our gov. Is incapable of doing wrong if it doesn't fit into your view of the world. Ironic af. we didn't need to go back in to Iraq. There are plenty of bad men out there that we let terrorize their people, many of which we even assist financially. That shit was a personal vendetta that cost thousands of lives, American and m.e alike. Not to mention we took a campfire and threw a fucking propane tank on it in the process. N just for a kicker I'd like to throw this out too...Fuck America. I'm sure this post will sit well with the crowd here lol.I think his point was that the American military incursion into Afghanistan was just another instance of colonial subjugation and oppression of dark skinned people.
Many, especially those on the left, conveniently forget that the 911 attacks were directed from Afghanistan. They lump Afghanistan in with Iraq. Maybe I am too kind when I say "forget", though.
nice rebuttal, retard.You must be an Uncle Buckfuck clone, so I guess now I have joined the Tea Party.....interesting.
I'm on a phone so I'm having a helluva time multiquoting but my last two posts are "wtf I'm talkin bout" . It goes back way before 911 as I'm sure you are aware. You'd make a good news anchor tho. Pretty easy to pull out one small piece of the puzzle to try and invalidate something. Personally 1 piece isn't the whole picture for me. Start with the corners....it's easier.What the fuck are you talking about?
The northern alliance was the group that threw out russia.
The Taliban are religious extremists hell bent on subjugation and oppression.
And they were there before the first American set foot in Afghanistan.
