Re: Wikileaks - Exposing Dark Side of Afghan War Its a war so really nothing new here except that Taliban are winning because we refuse to do what is needed to win there (kill lots of other guy as they are a tribal nation and its the biggest bad chief that runs the show, so I would be that big and very bad chief). If you want a political solution send politicians, but the army is there so its kill the other guy time and if I can get their leadership even better and collateral damage is going to happen (apparently hundreds by coalition forces, but thousands by Taliban), how is any of this leaked information unexpected?
The Taliban and Pakistan should be really thankful I'm not running that war as the phrases 'carpet bomb it into hell' and 'if it moves shoot it' would be commonly used, but I'd be outta of there in a year with a clear victory in my hip pocket and a country that was ready for rebuilding into what the so called politicians want, (they had their chance once before but blew it, blow it again and the results will be the same).
I don't like war, but if it comes down to it, I sure the hell don't believe in limited war (has one of those ever worked?), so do it and get it over with or get the hell out now. Lets be honest, nobody gives a crap about Afghanistan so its not like you have to appease any other super power, so why pussy foot around there.

After all Bin Laden stated his goal is to bankrupt the infidels using their own ignorance. |

quote:
We - with God's help - call on every Muslim who believes in God and wishes to be rewarded to comply with God's order to kill the Americans and plunder their money wherever and whenever they find it.
Frankly, the concern I have is whether this enormous leak of raw intel will aid him in pursuit of that goal.

said by Link Logger:Lets be honest, nobody gives a crap about Afghanistan May be companies like Halliburton or Blackwater Worldwide making huge money in Iraq and Afghanistan. They're making money - we're getting new enemies in the process. Then they are making even more money, and we ... It's a spiral process.

Re: Wikileaks - Exposing Dark Side of Afghan War said by SUMware:The Congress didn't. There is no officially declared war. Why doesn't Congress officially declare war? They sign off on the bills etc and everyone else on the planet knows its a war so why don't they just formalize it and make it official?
