The US is now losing the war in Afghanistan

The Taliban did a good job making the place seem like it was from the 1200’s which they thought was the purest form of Islam, damn thinking about it makes me very sad for the people that were enjoying the freedom

The White Man's Burden is a sickness that has to be crushed

it was also a famous book from the 1950s which explains it all better than I can

What business do white soldiers have over in Afghanistan on the other side of the planet in a Muslim country?

F*** it they will never understand

And before the white man's pedantry kicks in on this topic,. ......

White soldiers in my above post means white soldiers from America and the recently freed black slaves and the impoverished Hispanics who the white military now employees along with other white soldiers to go and fight their dirty Wars on the other side of the planet to try to tell other people how to govern themselves and what to believe and how much education they should give their population and what women should and should not do and their cultures

Blackhawk down in Iraq today. 1 killed half dozen wounded. Couple of months ago 2 medivacs went down 7 kia. How and why we're still in there I don't get. No idea what color they were or how they voted .

Theoretically that opinion is fine and I tend to agree with it. But on the ground going in there and actually physically doing something about it it's a little bit arrogant and presumptuous

There was no need for war in the first place. As Chomsky said: The Taliban asked for evidence, the US refused, and invaded anyway. It is a terrible thing to do when diplomacy was not even attempted. Then when you refuse to put Bin Laden on trial and dump him in the ocean it makes you wonder why the reluctance to provide evidence. Walrus you ended up going there and seeing terrible things and I am sure that has had a profound affect on you and will stay with you forever. I just don't think it needed to happen and think it is wrong to invade countries, but also see the harm it does to troops too. That's trillions of dollars that could have been spent on infrastructure and national investment projects.

Well miles, like people countries get bored. Sometimes you just need to gear up, go out and create some havoc. All of us evil white soldiers like to blow shit up anyway. That’s why everyone does it on PlayStation, you gotta try the real thing
