Oh, that's nice. People opposing the war in Afganastan, coming from a Marine Corps family, hearing that makes me want punch a hole in the fucking wall in my room. That ***** deserved to be tackled into a light pole. No, you now what? Fuck the people who oppose the war, when americas' men and women are taking rounds from pussies hiding in caves. GOD DAMMIT! Why the hell to idiots like this say stuff like that, oh yeah, that would be smart, let the Taliban win, that would do some FUCKING good. I don't even care if I get probation for this. Fuck the people calling the U.S military facits, fuck the taliban and fuck anyone who opposes freedom in the middle east! AGH!
Freedom? Hah. Hahahah. Ya right.
The only excuse you've got is your alleged family values. Tone down your nationalism, please, and think for once. Marching into a country, kicking over all of their traditions (no matter how much I might oppose them, and I do - the same way I oppose a lot of traditions and religions in other places) will not bring any so called freedom. This war is an absolute waste of money, the more they push the greater the resistance will be, and good luck fighting against guerrilla warriors - especially when some of the country's innocent native population might start to hate you as well for, again, bursting right in and kicking everything. Things have inertia. Changes, whatever they might be, must be made slowly - if you run in and kick something down, there will be great resistance. Which, I might add, you americans aren't quite successful at overcoming.
So, yeah, the talibans are not such a great threat and they certainly don't deserve so much money wasted on them when other more worthy areas deserve attention - like bloody education and health care, among other things. Although it's fucked up enough as it is, thanks to the whole invasion thing, so it's not going to end well either way.
P.S. And no, emotions do NOT make one's opinion somehow more valid.
