Should have stayed in Afghanistan. I think what happened (as it so often happens) is the administration under estimated the Afghan problem. They saw how quickly the Taliban crumbled in the first few months and thought it was a piece of cake.
So much for that.
And if it's any kind of comparison, Iraq has a higher chance of success than Afghanistan in terms of turning it into some kind of working country.
Depressing actually. Pretty darn depressing.
Remember way back when people were going on about how after 2000 there would be no more wars? Well... there's plenty of war and no flying cars yet. |
I guess you have a point about us being somewhat responsible for Bush but it just really angers me that we haven't impeached him & Cheney & prosecuted them for the many crimes (Obstruction of Justice, etc) that they have committed. Why aren't the American people, who are the ones dying due to their lies, not more angry? Well, actually I think they are angry & this November will show how angry we are!
