There is no one who can state an actual goal of the so-called war in Afghanistan. The only goal that would make any sense at all with regard to saving America from some future problem would be to directly deal with the problem of Islam and that isn't being done. Any and all efforts made to strengthen Afghanistan or ANY "Islamic" country or controlled area ultimately ONLY makes them a bigger threat to America and our freedom. Islam and all Islamic controlled countries and areas need to be weakened, never built up. Whatever we build for or give to the Afghans will eventually be used against us. We could spend 999 years there building up Afghanistan and "training" them but if we did not deal with the problem of Islam on the day we were...

We need "a warrior," not "a flower child."

The anguished mother of an American soldier killed in Afghanistan said this about President Barack Obama. She objects to the rules of engagement, which she feels caused her son's death. The recent Rolling Stone piece on the former Afghanistan commander, Gen. Stanley McChrystal, showed widespread troop disapproval of these rules, designed to minimize civilian casualties but which increase the danger to coalition soldiers in the field.

But this is the mindset of Obama.

As a candidate for president, Obama criticized President George W. Bush for "wrongly" taking the nation to war in Iraq and thus "neglecting"...
