Here's the best essay I've read about the idiocy of our warring in Afghanistan.
When you read and/or hear the spin coming out of DC and other world capitals about how it's going there and how it's a crucial place for us to be, remind yourself that it's all lies.
It's nothing short of Bullshit.
Pakistan loves it, OBL loves it, China loves it, Iran loves it, Russia loves it, Saudi Arabia loves
it(that's news to me). In other words all those who would like to see the U.S. humbled love it. It saps us of money, prestige, and blood. No one likes a bully and the U.S. is perceived to be an arrogant bully all around the world.
Add to that noxious mix the reality that our own Neocon/Pentagon/Military/Industrial Complex loves it for the $Billions they rake off by waging war, somewhere, all the time, at the expense of the American Taxpayer whom they don't want to wake up to understand what is really happening to them.
With friends like these ------.
This has almost nothing to do with Dems or GOPhers. It's now clear that whoever sits in the White House in these times is in on the fix.
