Afghanistan was run by an extreme government that shot people for not obeying Muslim law.
If anything I doubt they're patriot's fighting for freedom. |

@Pwnzer
Afghanistan used to be run by the Soviet Union which was doing a pretty good job. But then the US came because the USSR didnt obey them. |

How would you know people were being executed for not followed Shariah law?
Heard of Syria Danny? How do we know it's not the same thing?
As I said.
If the people of the invading country were only told the enemy did all these horrible things they'd only believe the enemy did all these horrible things and support their destruction.
As if the news is honest in any way. |

This isn't a isolated event, not at all. Every time, EVERY SINGLE ONE for the most part, this happens; they always say it was a rouge.
Most of them are not rouge, not at all. It serves this man, and all others who commit these crimes; more who ordered it, than committed it, need to be punished.
How can you even defend this? |

Afghani patriotism is deeply routed in their religious heritage. Big deal. We came into Afghanistan and sent Al-Qaeda running into Pakistan, then dilly dallied with supposed Al-Qaeda in Iraq (Who only hit the scene after we caused Iraqi border security as well as their stable government to collapse which allowed for Syria and Arabian nutjobs to come in), then dill dallied with the occupation of Afghanistan (Something Bush promised not to do!), and then dilly dallied with the Arabian penninsula before going to Pakistan where we knew he was at all along...And after we had chopped and bombed Al-Qaeda into non-existance, we decided to go back to where it all began, in Africa, and used stuff like Kony to justify our presence.
Whoo go US government. Please leave me out of it in my home in Liechtenstein.
What if we had stayed out of World War II? German victory?
-
There wouldn't of been a WWII had we not of been r-tards and invaded Spanish territory on the grounds of freedom for the Cubans, and then sent our ships to be 'attack' be Spain in the harbor, thus fueling our need to be world police, which led to us creating a giant fleet to stop nations like Russia and Japan from fighting, which led to the Germans and British wanting a fleet like the Americans, which then led to an arms race, which led to an massive power struggle and alliance system, which led to WWI, which led to us only entering the war on the grounds of the Zimmerman telegraph which would never of needed to of been filed had we not of decided to attack Mexico illegally way back when, and considering the British were actively killing our own citizens by sending them across the Atlantic strapped with explosives, which caused such an outcry against the Germans (Whom most Americans were anyways), which led to us going to fight the Germans, and as we went to fight we brought the Influenza of 1918 to the world, which killed many, as well as us being in the war caused the German Revolution and the Treaty of Versailles which put Hitlol in power, but had the Kaiser of been around, there would of been no such need for far right and extreme centaristic actions.
So boom. We all started everything. AND DON'T SAY NAPOLEON DID BECAUSE OUR REVOLUTION BANKRUPTED FRANCE AS WELL AS INSPIRE THE REVOLUTION THAT PUT THAT MAN IN POWER!
What if we had just let Gaddafi slaughter his own people?
-
Sorry some states conduct violent crackdowns. Let's all enforce a no fly zone over Beijing.
What if we had just let the Muslims in Bosnia be ethnically cleansed?
-
Lets put a bunch of pacifists with no legal way of defending themselves in charge of protecting a safe area we declared with the false hope of Serbians honoring it. Lol good one. If anything we made the situation worse by putting all the targets into one big area by promising to protect them.
What if we had just let the USSR expand without end?
-
I think the locals did a fine job of stopping all forms of Soviet expansionism. See Finland and Afghanistan.
What if we had just let Iraq keep Kuwait and invade Saudi Arabia?

People are supporting these vile acts out of bigotry and hatred too, and it's utterly appalling. People only support wars when they've never been in them, most Soldiers that you see on TV, the patriotic ones are rare cases, or new. From what I've read, most soldiers suffer some sort of trauma from being forced to kill or be killed so often, taking a life has a significant impact on the average human psyche, and even the constant risk of spontaneous death or watching others die causes PTSD and depression in a large group of soldiers, no wonder that man lost it. These people need to be treated, and the US needs to put more effort into diplomatic solutions or people will continue suffering, and it won't be fair to anyone.
I used to be agentrok. -It's not easy being cheesy. |

@Pwnzer
The USSR helped with steel mills, plants, schools and other industries, while Afghanistan now is a hell hole thanks to the US.
@North
The Taliban doesn't have the means of attacking the US. I don't know how the terrorism will affect you. |

What a joke.
2 months of control is not enough to effect any type of industry or education.
Not to mention anything they did do which I doubt they did much was destroyed in the resulting civil war. |

As do the Taliban.
The majority of what they do is not a full on slugging match.
You know all those silly car bomb's and fun tingz. |

But the Taliban is only able to attack US forces because they are stupid enough to go out in the open to fight the Taliban. Would the Taliban be able to reach the US if all US forces were to have withdrawn? |
|

Guys let's not fight about this, I'd say is, they murder somebody, they get the death penalty. Simple.

Obama's as stupid as a rock, a dark colored rock. honestly, I think that's good, turn the shooter over to the Afghans. Living in the US, I heard this on the news. I heard that he was supposed to protect the civilians, but what's he do? He goes all spray-matic with his rifle and kills 16 people, maybe he considers himself a hero, in his own mind. A mind which will be dead once his body shuts down from death. |
