Please where was he as Senator Thompson when we (AND THE REPUBLICANS) shafted Afghanistan and invaded Iraq? John Batchelor... shame on you for not portraying both sides of the COIN on this one. Maybe you should ask Pat Lang to join your show and get his take. That would be a interesting show.. Two buds Larry Johnson and Pat Lang talking about both sides of the COIN on Afghanistan....

We would have to permanently station and supply probably 200,000 troops there. We do not presently have the resources to do this, mostly because our citizens have been robbed blind and our economy annihilated by the same freaking people who are running and profiting from these illegitimate wars. more to the point, who the f#ck cares if we lose: we have no business being there in the first place. we have killed far more civilians than combatants, and of the combatants, we have killed more people attempting to protect their country from our invading armies rather than any real threats. the wars, all 4 of them in which we are presently engaged including Afghanistan, are evil and unnecessary. we certainly had the resources to protect our nation at home. I have had more than enough of No Country Without One of Our Military Bases Left Behind, and paying for these bases, and most of all for my money being used by those profiting from these wars to put blood on my hands. And if we're going to talk about the freaking House of Saud, one can find it's influence a h#ll of a lot closer to home. even if we fielded 300,000 soldiers in Afghanistan, we would not win the war: taking Afghanistan is not the same thing as holding it.

Let's see if I can remember what I wrote. Snap! The reality of Obama's actions. And, let's not forget his new bold plan announced in March, not giving what was needed prior to, or after his new plan. Just increased Drone attacks, killing and angering Afghanistani's. This is Obama's own man made disaster. Wow, this post lost many comments too.

Obama brought it back to life, and then proceeded to totally muck it up. As we have been hearing, Obama is waiting until the public tires of the war, and wants our troops home. Then Obama can act like he is doing what the American people want. The only problem is that most people can see through Obama. Even though his administration is not transparent, he is.
