Reaction: Obama's strategy for Afghanistan

President Obama announced last night that he will send 30,000 additional troops to Afghanistan. Do you support this surge? The President said that he plans to start bringing U.S. forces home from Afghanistan by July 2011. Is this a reasonable goal? Do you think members of the Afghan government will eventually be able to stabilize their own country?

jobs=End boarders & $. Share. 1.Go to safe place. 2. Talk to opponent, make peace agreement. Ex: Let people be outside with weapons. Stop shooting at people & don’t send to jail.

3. medical aid. 4. everyone gets enough food, water, healthcare, heat, shelter. 5. training to make efficient healthcare/energy tech, import, or evacuate 6. Use what you have, or import, invent tech to increase plant based food, water, healthcare, energy, Production fast, with minimal capital needed. 7.surplus.

Obama is a bullshiter, the war is BULLSHIT, dont be a drone like that guy who says " its their decesion" to send people to die, oh ok. We could be goin back to a Nazi Germany with idiots like that.

Amazing how powerful the media/propaganda machine works. The people in this clip just idoitically re-iterate EXACTLY what obama and the british government tell them- without any thought of their own.

Good little sheep, standing in line and putting blind-faith in their god-like leaders to do the right thing...

can anyone please answer me when America in its history has ever been able to do what Obama is talking about.

For Americans to stabilise Afganistan with an operational military and political system is just a huge pile of shit.

This all stems form the Heroin trade that is coming out of afganistan and if they want Bin Laden then they should look to Pakistan but that would mean opening another can of worms altogether.

Sassons, are just in the high point of their dreams of reviving the opium trade. 1000 grams of human flesh => 1 gram of heroin

How can Obama put a deadline on the Afghan surge? No good news ever comes out of Afghanistan and both the Taliban and the Republicans can't wait to see Obama's commitment failing apart.

Obama is nothing more than a puppet for the New World Government that His daddy and Masta Bush Sr. started not to long ago. The funny thing is the stupid blind mother fuckers thought Obama was going to "Change" the war and call the troops home. All that peace of SHIT did was bury the country into debt that we will never be able to pay. So fuck Obama and Fuck Bush for beign One World Government Puppets.

Sound bite sound bite sound bite. Too bad they didn't pick fewer people and give them more time to really explain their reactions to the speech. And did these people even all watch the speech or were they just responding to the questions?

[ndyt]

"they know more about the inside details" Yeah, that worked real well when Bush invaded Iraq.

Bring ALL our troops home NOW!
