Snapits> All our poor bastard soldiers
can do is ride around hoping to avoid roadside
bombs. Like the old suppository joke. For all the
good it does...
Actually, Mein Pope,
The Guys are out there hunting and killing the
IED installation gangs.
They are also out there making a lot of 'night time
raids' . . . collecting up the guys who pay the IED
gangs.
But, as I said before, Afghanistan is a LOT like
Vietnam . . a thankless no-win type situation.
Eventually, like Vietnam, (next Republican President
probably) we'll 'declare victory' and withdraw. Much
like Nixon did in Vietnam.
Personally, what I think we ought to do, is draw
down to about 20,000 guys. 10,000 each on the
iranian and pakistani borders. Protect our forces
and hunt terrorists along both borders.
Zim.
