Afghanistan is Obama's Killing Field

[asur]

As usual, I'm right on the facts and about Obama and his
losing this war and being a liar!

When he campaigned he had all the answers and boasted on how we
will fight and win the war in Afghanistan! What a liar this Obama!


White House officials now say the focus of the President Barack Obama's war strategy will be on defeating al Qaeda in Pakistan, while downplaying the need to completely eliminate the Taliban in Afghanistan

This suggests he will pull troops out of Afghanistan
and effectively lose the war.

It's called change!

Your lack of knowlage about things you hold strong opinions on is scary. What sad is I cant say your a ****************** censored yet you can post such mindless garbage. At least mine would have facts to back it up

The intent of the Nobel Peace Prize award, could also be to reinforce Obama's decision to
retreat from Afghanistan.

If he can lose a war and get an award everyone forgets about the US loss
and the fact he lied about Afghanistan in his campaign.

I've got to tell you - if this is the way he is going to run our efforts in Afghanistan, I almost hope we do pull out. Now. At least, after reading this...

The video has a fair amount of criticism for the Bush administration, which I cannot at all say is undeserved. But what is going on NOW is inexcusable, and heart-breaking. Our men and women deserve better. Your initial title usage of "killing field" is not so far from the truth. If PBO doesn't quickly develop a purpose, a mission and a strategy, we WILL be reliving Viet Nam and Cambodia.

An excerpt of the lengthy but worthwhile Times OnLine article:

...The chaplains said soldiers were seeking their help in unprecedented numbers. “Everyone you meet is just down, and you meet them everywhere — in the weight room, dining facility, getting mail,” said Captain Rico. Even “hard men” were coming to their tent chapel and breaking down.

The men are frustrated by the lack of obvious purpose or progress. “The soldiers’ biggest question is: what can we do to make this war stop. Catch one person? Assault one objective? Soldiers want definite answers, other than to stop the Taleban, because that almost seems impossible. It’s hard to catch someone you can’t see,” said Specialist Mercer.

“It’s a very frustrating mission,” said Lieutenant Hjelmstad. “The average soldier sees a friend blown up and his instinct is to retaliate or believe it’s for something [worthwhile], but it’s not like other wars where your buddy died but they took the hill. There’s no tangible reward for the sacrifice. It’s hard to say Wardak is better than when we got here.”

Captain Masengale, a soldier for 12 years before he became a chaplain, said: “We want to believe in a cause but we don’t know what that cause is.”

The soldiers are angry that colleagues are losing their lives while trying to help a population that will not help them. “You give them all the humanitarian assistance that they want and they’re still going to lie to you. They’ll tell you there’s no Taleban anywhere in the area and as soon as you roll away, ten feet from their house, you get shot at again,” said Specialist Eric Petty, from Georgia.

Captain Rico told of the disgust of a medic who was asked to treat an insurgent shortly after pulling a colleague’s charred corpse from a bombed vehicle.

The soldiers complain that rules of engagement designed to minimise civilian casualties mean that they fight with one arm tied behind their backs...

Good 'nuff!!!

The Idiot Son LONG-ago allowed bin Laden to escape, from Afghanistan (and, into Pakistan) anyhow.

....And, his Legacy (of failures) lives-on....
