Afghanistan

[urban genie]

So sad, there's a lot in the UK, they must be so worried about family and friends back home. The country is a lost cause and will be a haven for Terrorists groups, I feel sorry for the majority of the population who will now live in relative poverty and a backward society led by a minority of lunatics. In a utopian society we would get the innocents out of there and bomb the fuck out of the place, polish the cunts off for good.

It's a saddening state of affairs

Let them get on with it. It baffles me how these Islamist folk like to live their lives but who are we to question it? If women are happy being nothing more than breeding fodder then so be it. If they’re not and if there is a genuine groundswell for change in these countries you’d have thought there may have been a people’s revolution by now? Instead 2000 years later they’re still living by the same doctrines and stoning people to death. Hey ho.

Afghanistans had several revolutions, coups and occupations, seems the peolel have rose up before only to be beaten down.

Unfortunately the soviet-afghan war bred most of the terrorist factions of the last 30 years.

The yanks and Russians are still there.

Contracted mercenaries on both sides. It's war by proxy.

The Taliban hide behind a facade of ultra conservative Islam but in all reality it’s drugs cartel.
Opium production will sky rocket in the coming years.

Hard to revolt against blokes handing out daily public floggings with AK-47s as back up. "They've got the guns but we've got the numbers" was one of the daftest sayings of modern times.

I believe the Taliban say 'you may have the watches, but we have the time'.....

And didn't the USA supply these terrorists with a lot of arms?

 

[Bill Walker]

It's terrible.
But how long should the west, mainly America, fund a war in Afghanistan ?

Just watched the video about why Hitler didn't invade Switzerland.
The two main reasons were mountains and the fact that the Swiss we're armed.
Sounds like the Taliban.

Not on my holiday destinations. My never go east of Greece mantra is getting stronger each year.

Afganistan is too big a country with too many ethnic groups all over the place with no modern infrastructure and isolated by the geographical terrain.

It’s no wonder the Taliban are reemerging and always will.

It’s like putting City, United and Liverpool fans in a dilapidated stadium unsegregated with no security and asking them to get along.
