… Afghanistan Was A Mistake. "Eighteen years after the U.S. invaded Afghanistan, Americans are split on the necessity of the war, with just over half saying it was not a mistake in a new poll from Gallup. The survey found 52 percent of respondents say the U.S. invasion, initially launched in response to the Taliban's refusal to turn over Osama bin Laden, was not a mistake, compared to 43 percent who say it was…" link Main page link

Yeah they shoulda nuked Pakistan, that place is where the Taliban actually came from. Not the US supported Mujhadeen like left wing media like to say. THe Muj became the Northern Alliance, the Talibs were Pakistani Islamic students. I worked with a Pakistani. He was a nutcase and thought 9/11 was all faked and that I was dirty scum for eating pork. We shoulda nuked those ers. |
