Early Out: 'US Afghan mission waste of lives & resources'

The United States has made the surprise announcement that it will end combat operations in Afghanistan earlier than expected. Many believe the Obama Administration has finally given in to political pressure ahead of this year's presidential election.

Derrick Crowe, of the non-profit Brave New Foundation, believes years of public pressure on American officials are "starting to break through."

Countries like Saudia Arabia, the birthplace and heart of Islam didnt even have a navy, army or air force. Britain (and now America) force thee puppet kings to trade their oil in dollars in exchange for weapons and military assistance.

Is that the character of an aggressive culture or religion in this case, Muslim countries only have militaries because of the West.

Islam meant peace until your governments turned it into a faith of resistance.

@NobleSavage1919 the US: equipped with state-of-the-art modern weaponry vs the Taliban with primitive weaponry, hence the ant

@NobleSavage1919 That would be like me calling all the Afghans Al Qaeda terrorists. That certainty wouldn't be fair.

[bdenniso]

@NobleSavage1919 I am not judging Afghans...I was judging extremists of all walks of life. I didn't support the war, and I don't look down on humans because of their nationality.I was criticizing Al Qaeda and pointing out that anyone that trys to glorify them is a real piece of shit.

Not all westerners/western culture is evil,you should understand this.There are always assholes in society no matter where on the earth you are. Judging military is one thing but don't try to vilify normal citizens

[bdenniso]

@NobleSavage1919 I'm not trying to justify killing people, I'm just pointing out that there is a "humane" way and a "inhumane" way. I don't condone killing at all, but if it most be done it should be done quick and painlessly, not by slowly sawing off someones head.

Also, when judging Afghans please realize that we have endured more then anyone can handle. Anyone under the age of 32 has lived every day of there life at war. Wars we never asked for, wars fought defending our small piece of land smaller then the state of Texas. For some reason, whether geography,minerals or economic occupation every super power in history has tried to strip it from us.Now we are blamed for 911, a recent study showed that 75% of Afghans dont even know what "911" is
