And remember. the war in Afghanistan, which is related to a "terroist" war, who put the Taliban in power? Was it not the United States of America? Yes it was.
The reason? In the cold war, the 1980's especially, The American goverments funded Islamic militiants, who opposed Marxist Geurilla's, who were backed by the Soviet Union. Im honestly tired of the United States whining. For one, Al qeiuda, not Taliban is the attackers during the 9/11 attacks. I don't hate America, but I sure in hell don't respect it. It is not your right to enforce your idea's on the world. Democracy will not work everywhere. It has been proven. Afghanistan is full of Feuding tribes. And they only unite when they have a invasion force attacking them, or if a strong, visionary leader unties them. I hate Taliban also, for their practises on Civilian targets, which has nothing to do with their war.
However, the USA prevoked it. Instead of going on a senseless rampage, which only weilds the death of people who are not your targets, you should investigate who are the people who did this.
Not to mention the USA caused the 9/11 attacks. Instead of meddling so much in the world affairs, you look at your own country. Now, thanks to senseless wars, which drained your funding, your nation has now been hit with the worst of the recent recession, thanks to George Bush Junior and Senior, and Bill Clinton.
America is now paying the price economicly. I just wished your nation would catch on. I hate your goverment for its stupidty over the years, But I wish you people realized it before it happened. All I can say is good luck. The road your on is not paved, and it leads to a desolate place.
Your own soldiers want to leave. No one wants a war.
Your soldiers, no matter how trained they are, or how better equipped, are not soldiers by life. They grew up in a majority grouping, A happy childhood, with a peaceful background within a rich country. The Afghan rebels your troops are fighting however, have been fighting their entire lives. Many of them were part of the Maj'Aden Freedom Fighters Resistance movement, which fought against the Soviet Republics.
Not only that, but also in the 1980's, many have fought against Marxist Geurilla's. They know how to deal with a Superpower nation, They fought off the Soviets, and they fought off your troops.
Afghanistan is always going to be at war as well. If you just look at a Geographical map, it lies on the crossroads of many nations. It is the road for armies, and will always be that way. I can list numerous invaders over the centuries, not much diffrent then America and the Soviets.
