General "trash talked" Kharzai ?

[ironglow]

  Left leaning ATLANTIC WIRE claims the general "trash talked" about Hamid Kharzai.  Reading what the general said, I don't see any trash talk...only a statement of the actual facts.

    Now, I won't dispute the fact that military personnel don't have full 1st amendment rights..but I do dispute the "trash talk" accusation.
   Of course the general will not likely be promoted, but as with many military now trying to function efficently under the Obamanation rulings, he may be ready to "hang it up" anyway..

kharzai is an idiot.    there, he has really been trash-talked now

Kharzai is a pragmatic man. He knows the USA will not be there forever so he is in CYA  mode.
The General knows it and there are a number of examples what happens when you don't zip the piehole.  A good example was Gen Patton.

Scatter;
  There is an large element of truth in what you said, but of course if he feels that way, he should never have invited the US in.  Of course that's asking a lot from a guy raised in that culture..to be honest.
      Come to think of it, there are high ranking people in this culture who can't be entirely believed...

kharzai, Is siphoning off billions of U.S. aide dollars and sending them out of country. When we leave and it all falls in, he will be in the USA drinking champagne on our tax paid dollar. As well as telling the world how we destroyed his country.

He probably has a better place then the USA to spent his ill gotten wealth.
