You get your info from a leftwing echo chamber. Out in the real world, things are not as calamatous as you think.

Oh really. Well tell that to the relatives of the 100+ Afghans who were killed this past weekend by a suicide bomber. There was a time when suicide bombers were non existent in Afghanistan......before the arrival of Bush.

None of this emanates from "a leftwing echo chamber".......its the reality..........something you neos don't like to face.

They've been rebuilding for the past two years in both Afghanistan and Pakistan.......

No, there are no AQ training camps in Afghanistan as there were before.


Really? You know that how? We don't know what goes on in the mts between Afghanistan and Pakistan. And let't not forget the Taliban......they too have been rebuilding and reasserting themselves in Afghanistan.

Even in Pakistan, where AQ operates they do so on a low profile basis now as they are likely to get hit by a missile if they are too visible.

From what I understand, bin Laden is living in one of the cities of Pakistan. That doesn't sound like such a low profile.

or did you think that it was Mother Theresa who suicided and killed over a 100 people this past weekend.

A suicide bombing is not a sign or AQ or the Taliban is growing in power. Its a sign of desparation.


Really? What can I say, Brumar.......I am incredulous at your interpretation of such events.

Allies? You call Afghan. and Iraq allies? Countries that rely on you for money and military support are not allies but rather dependents.......expensive ones at that.

Yes we have allies. And sometimes allies need aid. That doesn't make them non-allies. You guys are so wrong-headed. You seem determined to help our enemies and hurt our friends.


On the contrary, I am determined to get this country out of invading and occupying foreign countries.

We would have captured bin Laden and been out there long ago.

Are you kidding me? You wouldn't have had the guts to go in. Remember all the media warnings about the dreaded AFghan winter? About how attacking during Ramadan would turn the Muslim world against us? Remember the warnings about how the British were never able to tame Afghanistan?


Dude, liberals took care of Kosovo and Bosnia in short order. It was a coalition undertaking that seems to have ended well. If only you all were half as competent.........
