Obama Outlines Afghan War Strategy

[Twoblindmen2009]

bring the troops home stop spending money on your corp friends theirs 50 mil american ppl without health insurance, give them the money you spend on wars all the usa companys employ sweatshop ppl to make their clothes/tvs for cents on the dollar wake up america and grow balls and take back your nation

[Valdinsh]

How he can talk about rationale and saying that, ''once American people understand rationale of what we are doing there...'' Mr. Obama makes a solid point in saying, ''what we are doing there'' (''we'' the elites, the people who make the decision). Has he ever listened or bothered to find out what do American people want and do their beliefs stand for?

It does not seem so. Unfortunately, regarding his promises for stopping the war waging against sovereign countries, he has failed completely.

[josb935]

Too bad Al Queda and much of the Taliban are hiding in Pakistan. We need to get our troops out of Afghanistan and bring them home.

[kilzad]

go obama ..we indians love u..rip their candy assses..haha...fuck u motherfucker talibanss..

[JimmyFormerMarine]

Go Obama! Whoop the Taliban ass!

[varoojanoohe]

We should get out soon.

[Longlivepalestine]

The fact remains that the Taliban is NOT Al-Qaeda.

The Taliban offered to hand over Bin Laden, but WE refused.

We are in Afghanistan to protect the Trans-Afghanistan pipeline.

[iamavet]

Dems want a war tax after wasting 700 billion $ on stimulus.

OK Dems, put your money where your mouth is- let us reinstate the Draft and send 500,000 new troops. This could end the war in 2 years. That would give a job to anyone without one and they can claim they really are in support of this President and his FUBAR ideas.

[beancube2008]

If we can lose this war as real history, then the future of Afghanistan will be much brighter. Just leave them our communication technology when our troop return, Taliban and Israel will be attacked by Muslim population more repeatedly for evolutions. Remember, wars among arabs nations are UN's responsibility, Isreal should not be excluded.

[ufbret]

Hey Jackass in Chief:

Under your leadership, Amercia has lost 298 soldiers and sailors in 2009 in the Afghan theatre -nearly twice as much as Bush did in his worst year of 2008, with 155 casualties.

Now, as CIC, youre attempting to court martial four SEALs for giving a murdering terrorist a bloody lip????

After three months, you think this "leader' could make a decsion. This administration is a dishonorable joke.

[gmcbuses]

We have to win in Afganistan. The 30,000 troops could come from Irak. We cannot allow the Taliban extremist to come back into power. It will mean again shelter for AlQuada, them hitting us here again. We are very good at foiling them, but 1 attack fort hood was not stoped. In Afganistan 30,000 troops should be placed along border with Pakistan, and Iran. 10,000 troops along border with Russia. A big part of winning this is stoping insurgents from coming in.

[gmcbuses]

15,000 troops should be used to attack Taliban Strongholds. The additonal 30,000 troops should be used to hold new territory. As soon as there is 350, 000 new Afganistanian troops. 4,000 more trucks, tanks, amunition, weapons needed. We build Afganistan some kind of economy. Then we can get out of there.

[HemiHead66]

Shelter for Al Qaeda Ha? You mean those 20 rag-tags hiding out in Pakistan? And in case memory is fuzzy, that Dunsky Bush started a war with the Taliban because they wouldn't run up in the mountains of Afghan and fetch Bin Laden without proof he was responsible for 9,11. Well, after Bush sent us to war looking for Bin Laden, he said he's "truly not concerned" about him - and Dumb-Ass Cheney said - we've never made the case, or argued the case that somehow Osama Bin Laden was involved with 9,11.

[gmcbuses]

We all know Bin Laden was responsible for 911. The Taliban sheltered him. Al Quada has a goal that the whole world should become like Iran.

[HemiHead66]

No - you're the only one that thinks Bin Laden was responsible for 9,11. He's not even wanted for it on the terrorist most wanted list. And what did you think I was lying to ya when I told you Cheney said there's nothing that connects Bin Laden to 9,11? You can here him say it on You Tube. Bin Laden even said he had nothing to do with it. And aren't they putting KSM on trial and saying he's the mastermind of 9,11? These wars are bullshit! And the Taliban never did shit to us.

[gmcbuses]

That is B S because Bin Laden made a video during the summmer of 2004 sayingf he signed off on it. You must be part of Alquada. You should be arrested.

[DanOblacksmith]

Don't hold your breath waiting to see the dead at Ft Hood recieve Purple Hearts either.

The criteria for the award of the PHM requires being wounded or killed by enemy action or by an act of international terrorism which the Ft Hood case clearly meets.

Obama will explicitly forbid Purple Hearts for the jihadist's victims because it would be admitting a terrorist act on american soil on his watch and he won't stand for that, nevermind the truth.

He will not insult his muslim bretheren that way

[ufbret]

Great points...that wont ever hit the headlines of course.

[DanOblacksmith]

Obama WILL court martial those seals because the P.O.S. raghead that killed 3 americans mutilated burned & then hung them on a bridge with a media crew there to put the scene on the media got punched by a seal when after 5 yrs a wanted man he was finally caught. Yet here in US a cop tasers a 10 year old girl for not going to bed and his chief backs him up so no action taken. That raghead is lucky this Xmarine wasn't there for I would have taken care of things & nothing more needed but a shovel.

[Xendrius]

This scumbag is continuing the Illuminati agenda, to bancrupt America while making the federal reserve richer. Way to go.

[Artist1974CH]

Well, this country has been corrupted ever since the criminal minded Europeans came here in 1492. THat was the beginning of the end of America.

[DanOblacksmith]

Love it or leave it bitch...

Perhaps you would be happier in a great bastion of truth & justice such as mexico, for example.

[Artist1974CH]

Well DanOlblacksmith, Mexico do have some our factory jobs and better healthcare system then ours' which that's another story. America is spending too much money on wars when it could be spent on important things to help Americans. I have to disagree with this Alex Jones fan because this war is for Corporate America not the Fed Reserve. Corporate America is controlling this country , and it is not good!

[DanOblacksmith]

Your'e almost there but you should quit listening to Ed Shultz and Randy Rhodes, they are both stand up comics, carnival barkers really. Alex Jones only covers what is legitimatly verifiable by government and U.N. documents, etc.

Look it all up yourself to verify the sources and credibility of what he reports, I mean actually go see for yourself instead of taking some talking head's word for what they want you to believe. The corporations, FED illuminati etc. etc. are all one big twisted family

[Artist1974CH]

DanOblacksmith, since you think you know what's going on in this world by listening to Alex Jones, what are you going to do about it? What is YOUR solution? I have met some Alex Jones fans on here who are completely fucked in the heads by screaming hatred toward Homosexuals and Women!

[DanOblacksmith]

1.) Continue to inform my fellow citizens of the truth and enlighten them with facts that they can easily verify for themselves. I realize this is a radical departure from the playground namecalling and hatespeach so common on the left but trust me, the truth goes over really well with just about everybody.

2.)If you are freaked by the words or actions of a few particular individuals I suggest inviting them over to your place for an evening of parcheesi and maybe some trivial pursuit for fun...

[Artist1974CH]

DanOblacksmith, let me ask you another question. Are you a Conservative?

[DanOblacksmith]

I'll go backwards this time...

2.) I am an american.

1.) All of this rampant division in this country is a big puppetshow, a play if you will,,,

We are being played. You, me, the guy down the street, and believe it or not even higher ups who most would consider to be in some sort of "untouchable" or "beyond corruption" class of people like Charlie Gibson on NBC news. People take for granted what they say beause they grew up with them always being there on the TV saying "THIS IS SO"...) cont-

[DanOblacksmith]

People need to think for themselves.

I can't overstate that enough...

We bitch at each other, one side and the other, everyday newspaper, internet, radio, tv is all geared to keep the false LEFT-RIGHT paradigm going and keep us at each others throats.

Ever go to a magic show?"

The audience is captivated by watching what one hand is doing and sees not the trick the other hand pulls off...

It's not about the left and right, its about the foreign bankers that are palying us like fools. Wake up

[Artist1974CH]

Sure people need to think for themselves but some of them don't! I've already waken up long time ago! As far as I'm concern, this world has been messed up for 1000's of years due to man and his ignorance that he created: religion, wars, greed, enslaving people, and other non-sense! What took place back then, still going on today because SLOW THINKING MAN loves to repeat his bullshit, and he expects people to take of whiff of his bullshit!

[selmamyspace]

well he did not start the war dummy.......

[howdythere34]

Come on a douche bag more worried about his little GQ magazine that he's in...this guy is nothing but an egomaniac...he is a clueless fuck up that is nothing more then drunk as hell on power and fame....he truly is a sad excuse for a president and possibly a decent human being....i think he's mentally fucked up.....what else could it be.....and if you're some lib that cant see some of this for what it is...well your fucked too

[DanOblacksmith]

DINGGGGG !!!!!!!

Gameshow correct answer belltone...

[lowgeemudbone]

change huh?obama is no different than any other greedy politician.he talked a good game to get elected ,people are losing their jobs and kids are going hungry but he will dump another 30 billion into a war that already costs hundreds of trillions.fuck afghanistan !!!we better start worrying about the "good old u.s.a.'

[gmcbuses]

The way to get our economy up, more jobs, gross demestic product up, increased government tax collections, free trade agreement with China has to be watered down. Goods that retail for 30 dollars, and below keep them being made in China. Goods retail over 30dollars put high tarrifs on them, to get those goods made here again. Workers in Buffalo, Niagara Falls New York, Ohio out of work so long they would be willing to work for 5 to 15 dollars a hour less just to have a job again.

[gmcbuses]

A big way to stop fighting discontent in Afganistan, Irak is get it some king of Economy jobs. Make a free trade agreement with them. Goods that retail 50 dollars, and down could be inported from Irak, Afganistan tariff free. To get more jobs in Columbia, less people pushing drugs. Get more jobs there. Goods that retail 20 dollars and down could be inported from there tariff free. A country really in danger with big Muslum discontent is France. Get that country more jobs.
