    We should be ashamed of what we are doing to Afghanistan!

    And we should immediately withdraw from Iraq and let the pigs of the desert kill each other.

    Which is.... Establishing a democratic government? Removing Taliban rule? Building schools, clinics, roads, irrigation systems? Educating and immunizing children? Giving equal rights to women? Trying to erradicate opium production?

    All things to be ashamed of eh? :rolleyes:

    Now let's hear your pessimistic response.

    By the way, before you respond I would challenge you to educate yourself on the goals, challenges, and accomplishments rather than just the shortcommings. Though I wouldn't imagine that is in your nature.

    My optimistic response is that all foreigners will withdraw from Afghanistan and allow the Afghanis to determine their own destiny.

    Sometimes what people want is not something they can achieve on their own, and the strong need to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves.

    As I told you in another thread, your attempts at trolling don't come up to standards so I decline to play with you. Come back in a year or so when maybe you've improved your skills. Bye bye baby.

    If you don't want to play then why do you keep replying to my posts? I see you have only been a member for about a month and already have 1200+ posts, and I have yet to see anything of substance come from your "trolling". Why are you so proud of that by the way? Kind of a pathetic subsitute for argument wouldn't you say?

    Tell me about the island nation of Haiti and the American installatin of Aristide during the Clinton years? Was General Raul Cedras threatening anyone?


    I wonder what the people in Iraq and Afganistan think about our intervention in those places?
