Are 1,500 U.S. Troop Deaths in Afghanistan Enough Reasons to End the War?

[tobe161]

i wish 15,00000000000000000 us troops should kill like gods in afghanistan

[evanh311]

MY question is: only 1500 deaths? For how many taken? For how much Time and how many dollars wasted?

[TheMOONBEAM40]

How could it happen again .? The slaughter of 100.000s of civilians Iraqi/afghan. 1000s of army casualties . Veterans who returned from Vietnam traumatized and aware they had been conditioned to regard Vietnamese as sub-human gooks found it hard to live with it back home.Another generation going through the same indoctrination ie. Kill RAGHEADS. no doubt when older +wiser they will suffer also ".In bedded "tame journalist now parrot misinformation from army sources.or risk being shot.

[barrach7]

Yes - get your troops out of Afghanistan. But more importantly, examine the civilian deaths, as far greater. NO-ONE should die in all this - civilian or military. Perhaps time for humanity to become more human and STOP all of this flagwaving, greedy, intolerant, disgusting acts of 'war'...

[dalysheco]

the war is be coz afghanistan opium non more wake up ppl

[letstalkaboutstuff]

Bush JR started this. Heroin sales skyrocketed after the US invasion. The real Taliban nearly put a stop to the heroin trade in Afghanistan. Please President Obama end this. I know it's not just you that controls that choice. Apparently the CIA are heavily involved due to heroin?

Please visit my Afghanistan video and see what you think. It's only about 3 or 4 minutes. I think many of you will find it interesting. The video is called:

Fake "War on Terror" Pt 2 (Mineral Mining & Heroin) ?

1500 is not that many. Most of them probably were of black, mexican, asian or hispanic back ground not that many angloamericans died so not so bad. US should stay there until the mark hits 15000 like russians.

[MrWeatherman10]

:(

[goodfty]

only 1500 thats not to bad

[Ickerbocker]

2 days ago 2 German Soldiers were killed by a bomb attack. General Kneip was hurt. Some days ago a soldier of the Bundeswehr was killed by a Streetmine.

YOU have the fucking responsibility to bring it to a good end with your allies. We are there because you were attacked in 2001. Dont forget that.

@Ickerbocker i dont like hippies -_-

Bad news 4 the US Army

From formula math or statistics is derived this year 1,119 NATO troops (include the US Army) will die in Afghanistan.

Believe it or not. It's the exact.

[ddddcinc]

1500 have died for one world government. Poor saps.

Thanks for two very kind messages under these comments--seems those "representatives" in Washington D.C. just don't realize what the word "representative" means. How can you know what you're supposed to represent if they all are too deaf and blind to realize that the majority of Americans no longer want this damned war--we need the resources here a lot more.

[yooja]

We need them home bring Troops home from these elitist wars it has been the only way we stopped Vietnam by Vets chaining themselves to the Capital. A long journey of decent in the ranks brought the rest of our troops home. Pax Lux

@nora4154

What a great and wonderful quote...too bad most Americans will never comprehend the import of the message. And, not, I'm not a bubble-headed pacifist...I spent 8 years in the military and decided I'd NEVER go to the disaster of the time--Viet Nam. BTW...look up what it means to be a "combat casualty"...it'll REALLY piss you off!!!

Calling All Legal Citizens of the United States of America!..Eat more Meat! Watch more TV! Drink Coke! Drive to Work! Go to War then go Shopping! Buy Buy Buy! Live Your Dream and then make a comment on a video on Youtube or if your feeling really clever...find a philosophical quote on Google then Copy and Paste..We Love You America! X

[dwf56]

@indoaria As an American who agrees that eating more meat, watching more TV, drinking more soda, wasting more fossil fuel while hurting the Earth, and with an economy that's (something like) 80% based on consumers buying more of what they already have (buy, buy, buy) and copying and pasting philosophical quotes, I must say, you make a point.

Let's get out of Afghanistan. Let's get out of this senseless war

[indoaria]

1,500 US troops! What a joke! 15,000 would not be enough to avenge for the blood of the innocent civillians of Afghanistan and Iraq. Shame on you, your troops and your pompous country.

[kcdrew69]

@indoaria---Right. Avenge and revenge. We don't care to do that forever and learn nothing as they do in the Middle East and that part of the world, thanks very much.

[jeff562003]

When is enough…enough!!!

[kcdrew69]

we learned nothing, nothing from the Soviets occupation of Afghanistan.

[teachur]

@kcdrew69 Nor many others over the centuries....we seem to learn NOTHING from history....look how we're following hot on the footsteps of the British and their absolutely insufferable arrogance during their own downfall.

[badattitude77769]

Respect the soldiers, millions of children terrorized, for what?

[Painkill3r4]

@Jjackson4444 I'm fairly sure that it was George Bush who started this mess only to take his eye off the ball and go finish what his daddy started in Iraq. Just one more thing Obama has to clean up after.

My best to you and your son. Four deployments is ridiculous and I sincerely hope he comes home safely in the very near future.

[Gr33kElite]

@Painkill3r4 lol Obama is cleaning up nnothing he seems to be creating an extra warfare front. All presidents of the 20th-21st century of the US have been war criminals!

[neps1353]

@Painkill3r4 Obama's promise before entering office, "I promise to start pulling out of the middle east immediately!!!" : One of Obama's first choices in office: Deployed 30,000+ to Afghanistan

[Jjackson4444]

Thanks for the short flm - My son is on his fourth deployment over there, and for what? Oh, right, so that Obama can go make jokes with the Irish, play ping-pong and take his family to Europe.

[kcdrew69]

@Jjackson4444 President Obama didn't start this mess. He just has to be the person that finishes it.

[Trekkerjon]

@Jjackson4444 I am so sorry to read that. My son is a captain in the Army -- and I have lost count. It is absurd.

[auralstream]

@Jjackson4444 I hope you were saying the same thing when Bush was in office. I just like to keep it equal.
