Afghanistan death clock
« on: December 02, 2009, 03:00:02 PM »
In December of 2008 Time Magazine characterized the Afghanistan war as aimless. That was correct. Now it is still aimless, but there are more US targets waiting to be killed there.

About 100 US soldiers died last month in Afghanistan.

How many will it be this month? And next?

Safety first

Spring is coming to Afghanistan. We have long since over stayed with a REGRESSION rather than a PROGRESSION in our accomplishment. We should have bombed the training camps into powder, apologized for the noise, and called it a day.
Instead we are mired in a war that will not be a victory. So as soon as spring arrives the death toll will continue to climb, and although some will continue to beat the war drum, I will pray that someone will come to their senses, and bring our boys home.

if they seek to control the country we will suffer the same fate as russia. if we build roads schools water wells and plant crops they will blow up the roads and schools poison the wells and mine the fields the crops are in.

they want nothing of our ways nothing.

Truer words never spoken Retail, and they have said so to others for hundreds of years. We as a country have ignored history there, and are merely doing what others before us have ignorantly done. Which is to "repeat it".
