Iraq?? OOPS! Let’s try Afghanistan.
The U.S. war machine is “Johnny come lately” going to war. The opponents have had years to prepare for the war and develop their count-attack war plans. Their citizens have been appropriately indoctrinated and allies have had ample time to adhere, pledging their support in specifics.
For America, having no time to prepare for war after coming out of one and going directly into another is, in my opinion, irresponsible. That level of stupidity has not one iota of redeeming grace and the name of the targeted country should be appropriately re-named, “Waterloo 3”, with
viet Nam and Iraq being Waterloo numbers one and two respectively.
How America intends to now, five years later, go into Afghanistan, destroy what is left of its civilization and its people, sacrifice the lives of more American troops all in the name of stopping terrorism and honoring Israel’s right to exit is something that would give pause to the most inexperienced leader of a thug street gang in the most rural county or city in America with ninth and tenth grade education. It is hard to think anyone being so inapt unless they were stone, cold crazy and I wish I could somehow infuse energies into that word with a bitch slap!
There are already families dealing with the reality of one family member being killed in Iraq and another killed in Afghanistan. That fact alone has to be psychologically difficult for a family. A family member signs up to fight the war in Iraq and gets killed in Afghanistan; both wars being illegal. What a pill to swallow. Is there no shame? No decency at all?
Logically, going into Afghanistan would be fighting another war. Wars need CONGRESSIONAL approval. Wars need war plans with detailed information least of which identifying when the mission is over and the American people have seen this movie before. Too many times. Are we going to let this one go down as another viewing of the “Rocky Horror Picture Show?”
I am not so out of touch to know Congress is going to sit back and prepare to watch the movie. They are not going to do a damn thing; they know it… I know it… and they know that I know they know it! What do they care? I can’t do nothing about it. At this juncture, we therefore tell each other to fuck off and go to hell!
Fighting for the dignity of my Ancestors,
God bless Bill Gates, WPFW, C-Span and the spirits of the unborn for the help,
BB
P.S. In an airplane transferring troops from Iraq to Afghanistan, I bet you could cut the air with a knife and I’ll wager one of the questions looming in the air would be “Is it going to be in Afghanistan?”
As the Fighting Swells in Afghanistan, So Does a Refugee Camp in Its Capital
Sunday 03 August 2008
by: Carlotta Gall, The New York Times
Excerpt:
Kabul, Afghanistan - On a piece of barren land on the western edge of this capital, a refugee camp is steadily swelling as families displaced by the heavy bombardment in southern Afghanistan arrive in batches.
The growing numbers reaching Kabul are a sign of the deepening of the conflict between NATO and American forces and the Taliban in the south and of the feeling among the population that there will be no end soon. Families who fled the fighting around their homes in Helmand Province one or two years ago and sought temporary shelter around two southern provincial capitals, Lashkar Gah and Kandahar, said they had moved to Kabul because of growing insecurity across the south.
And
His father, brother and a daughter were among those killed. "You cannot take revenge against a plane," he said. "But I will not forgive the foreigners for this crime."
