I am SICK of AFGHANISTAN! I was also sick of Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Libya, and now Syria also, but this Afghanistan war is sheer nonsense, and not a single Congressman or Senator can give a logical explanation of why we are there. The troops we are ’training,’ now shoot their American ’trainers’ in the back.
A trillion paper dollars or a lot more, spent in the last close to eleven years in that desolate, uncivilized, spot of land, which is of no value to anyone. They have no seaport, no oil, and are as primitive as cave men. Obama has sent thousands more troops and equipment to that god-forsaken, barren land, governed by uncivilized, unreconstructed, Muslim totally corrupt ’government,’ not American troops or NATO forces.
They can’t speak English, and we can’t speak Arabic. They are ruled by violence, and have no more use for civilization, law, and order, than does a salamander. Why did we go here? It was idiot George Bush who sent us there as well as to Iraq. What a disaster. We step over rusting Russian equipment, which they left when they gave up, thanks to us, many years ago. And They were probably ever so glad to get rid of it and go back to communist Russia, which is a lot better than Afghanistan!
When Uncle Sam’s guys arrived, Afghanistan was ruled by Muslim war lords, who treated their women as sex slaves and of no use outside of that. Muslims are dead set against drugs, so there were none grown there. Now, drug producing poppy, is a main source of income. There was no radio, no TV, no schools, no education, no fun, and no future. Who cares? Not me! Why should America give a damn about Afghanistan? I have absolutely no idea.
9/11? Sorry, no cigar. Afghanistan had NOTHING to do with 9/11. Why are we there, wasting our troops’ lives and mental health? Why are we there, spending trillions of un-backed paper dollars, which is causing inflation here at home. We’re all paying for Afghanistan, you know. We’re paying with ever increasing prices for consumer goods, as the buck slumps downward. Why do we have over 900 bases around the world? Why do we think we are Atlas, trying to hold up the world? Why do we think the rest of the world would want to be like us?
We have an unconstitutional President with a fake birth certificate, and who has spent us, along with his Democrat Senators, into oblivion. The world would want to be like us? We have destroyed major inner cities, and the world would like to be like us? We had an equally disastrous, moronic President before Obama, in the person of George Bush, who got us into Iraq and Afghanistan, and the world would like to be like us?
Our public schools don’t educate, and we’re 37th in the world as far as our educational system is concerned, and they’d like to be like us? We consume hundreds of tons of illegal drugs every month, and the Mexican drug cartel just loves us. And we think the world would like to be like us? Is that why we have 900 bases around the world?
Is Iraq settled? I think not, because the Sunnis still kill the Shiites, and it is far from a safe, prosperous, free, nation. A trillion here and a trillion there, and pretty soon your talking about real money. One out of six soldiers comes home with mental disorders which may well cripple them for life, and Americans have been brainwashed into believing they are ’fighting for their country.’ Fighting and killing in Vietnam, Korea, Iraq, or Afghanistan had and has NOTHING to do with ’protecting America.’ It has to do with the idiots in Washington D.C. just loving to grow government and make themselves feel important and all knowing, which is exactly what they are not.
If the terrorists are a threat, I wonder why? Could it be because we have invaded their lands and killed millions of innocents? Would we really have to worry about Muslim terrorists if we brought all the troops home tomorrow? Suppose the terrorists blew up Washington D.C., which is what happened in a Tom Clancy novel I read a few years ago? We’d then have 50 individual state governments, no foreign wars, no income tax, no federal bureaucracy, no continual harassment when we want to do something productive, and maybe we’d just leave it that way! 50 square miles of radioactive wasteland, which no one would miss.
If America had not invaded Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and so far, not Syria, gas would be a buck a gallon or less, and consumer prices would be at the 1950’s level. How would this be possible? Trillions of paper dollars would not have been printed, and trillions spent on useless wars and the hideous aftermaths of them, with ruined bodies and millions of dead. Jobs would not have gone overseas, and America would still make what it buys and uses. Wars are terrible, expensive, politically caused, disasters, which have destroyed America, it’s cities, manufacturing base, its currency, and millions of jobs, not to mention creating enemies in the Muslim world. All for nothing other than politics, lies, and more lies. Neutrality would be ever so great.
From the April 7, 1900 Gladstone Kibosh: “On election morning, the 100 pounds of dynamite fired by Mayor Bowman, failed to wake up ex-Mayor Miller, which assured the election of Bowman. By 10 AM, over one third more votes had been cast than had been registered. The little Dutch band furnished beautiful music all day long, and at this writing, 11:55PM, those that can stand are still playing. The new electric line from the Gold King Mill to Bowman’s department store will now be built.”
