| If you break it, you bought it.
If you invade a sovereign nation you will have to stay the course.
I raised this question very early, during the invasion.
What happens when the US gets tired of this and goes home?
At that point in time the sentiments was that the US would never pull out untill the situation in Iraq was stable and peaceful.
Today there is a different tune out there.
But the real question in my mind is.
Why the f*ck didnīt we get a chance to get Afghanistan right before a large portion of the troops earmarked for Afghanistan got diverted to Iraq?
I submit that troops have died needlesly in "The Stan" because the job wasnīt done right from the start.
Anyone care to comment on that?
