Perpetual war, fear mongering and ultimately "nation building" are the greatest vehicle for making lots of $$$$$$. Always has and always will be. Hawk and his like-minded pawns have got be really happy now that the junket has been extended by the Nobel Peace Prize winning POTUS. The pigs at the trough have been appeased. What a colossal joke it all is......

Plain and simple, we fuck with other people, why are we surprise when people fuck with us.

How, exactly, were we "f*cking" with the Taliban to the extent that they justified harboring a terrorist organization who's leader had declared war on the US in 1998, and then orchestrating an attack on the US homeland on 9/11? It certainly wasn't Unocal offering to build a pipeline across Afghanistan, which would have created jobs and economic progress for those people.

EVEN IF Al Qai'da wasn't responsible for 9/11, as you conspiratorially believe, Bin Ladin had declared war on the US and thereby declared himself an enemy of America. For the Taliban to safeguard him insured that they would share his fate.

I'm sure you've got some prepared Militant propaganda that will justify it, just as you justify destroying Israel.
