Re: "well buddy, based upon all these anonymous numerous reports how many American lives if lost would you find acceptable. 10, 100, 1000, 10000...."

>>> What the HELL are you talking about? You couldn't have missed the point of what I was saying anymore if you were trying. (And... I'd hardly call BBC, NYT, MSNBC, etc., 'anonymous' sources... but the WH has certainly played 'anonymous' about it.)

>>> The LOGICAL conclusion drawn from the info I posted was that it is a BAD THING to have allowed thousands of Taliban and al Qaeda terrorist fighters to escape defeat and capture by allied forces in Kunduz.

>>> A BAD thing, a very BAD thing!

>>> These terrorists will attack us and our interests around the world, perhaps causing massive loss of life.

>>> Perhaps we were snookered by the Pakistanis... maybe they promised to only fly out their own nationals, but if so shame on us for falling for the obvious lie.

>>> But also shame on the administration for lying to the public about this secret operation to rescue terrorists. That can never be in our long term interest.

>>> The only relevant question now is: where are these terrorists today?
