Some war of necessity huh, as Obama put it...
Whether he sends more or not, he's weak and spineless and all he thinks about is how it will effect him and his agenda...He knows the decision he makes in regard to Afghanistan will lose some of his support in the House, he needs the vote on HC first...All his excuses in regard to Afghanistan are gone and if he didn't have a decision made for both outcomes of the election alredy, I'll vote a straight Dem ticket next election...
Screw American lives, we gots an agenda to push!!!!!!!!! |

Original request was 80k. Again, we are there to win, not to waffle. I don't give two s_ _ _ ts about Russia. We are the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and this is 2009.

Pull the troops out. There is no logical war plan for this Afganistan mess.
We cannot help a country of 5,000 + years old change their ways so why bother? |

That is not why we are there, chief but the Taliban is a problem, no doubt. The CIC has a zero plan. |

>>>> It seems clear that the options presented by the Joint Chiefs were not acceptable
To whom, a community organizer?...The one that said this war was a "NECESSITY", funny, he doesn't fight it like it is...
What do those Joint Chiefs know anyway, bunch of warmongers<tic>...
I hope people's sons and daughters aren't killed because of his lack of decision making...He's had months since McChrystal's recommendation to accept or deny it, he's a weak leader who puts politics over people(his Dem buddies will get mad if he sends troops, forget the people that need them to live, he has an agenda he needs support for and can't piss them off, how many corners has he painted himelf into now?)...Afghanistan's corrupt govt was known and not changing regardless of re-election, what lies could he possibly tell himself to think differently?... |

You did not answer my question nor can anyone of those calling for troops to be deployed without a clear mission. Anyone care to explain what they mean by WIN in this current situation?
The Prez is doing the right thing and not letting the military make the decisions as was the case in prior administration.

Disagree. The mission was to conquer the enemy. Now, the objective is completely muddled.
Having an inexperienced White House running the War rather then relying upon their General is the problem. For, this White House appears more concerned with politics then they seem concerned with National Defense.
My guess at this point....There will be a negotiated truce with the Taliban, a truce which will be seen as a surrender by the enemy, our troops will be redeployed and Obama's base will be happy.
Longer term, what happens as a result of this move, probably not good. |

| There was a clear strategy in March when he sent more troops, then he used the election as an excuse once he got resistance from the left, now that excuse is gone and you're saying they didn't think this thru yet?...I'm sure they've thought thru all contingencies and made plans for them all by now...He's acting political, not in our troops best interest in this war of "necessity"...Keep lying to yourself if you think otherwise, fight or bring them home, there are only 2 choices... |

CMG, You think the President (a community organizer who has ZERO military experience) should not listen to the military leader he put in place?
He said Afghanistan was a war of necessity, now he is asking the troops to fight without the proper tools. I can't believe anyone who has a son or daughter in the theater would not want every single thing the general asks for to be deployed.
I understand you may want Obama to bring the troops home (fair point) but while a single soldier is there they should have every single soldier, weapon, armor, etc to ensure they win every battle with minimal American casualties.

Winning is conquering the enemy. The war on terror(or overseas contingency operation....the phrase the zero uses...politically leftly correct.) will be a long battle. Terrorists want to kill us. Our military is protecting us. We need to take the fight to them or they bring it to us. Which way do you want it?

As I expected ... nothing more than bullshiit talking points and speaking in generalities. You still have not answered the question that the Prez is trying to answer ... what defines winning? Don't bother to give it another try because you are incapable of understanding the importance of answering that question.

Best at what? I would agree our military is best at fighting organized, State-sponsored wars against uniformed enemy. You show you complete ignorance with your statement because the war that needs to be fought today requires that our values been left behind when our military enters the battle fields. Killing, raping, plunderings of everyone and everything in sight was easy for Russians in Afghanistan ... and the Taliban still sent them packing. Short of building a nation [acceptable to America] out of that wasteland, we will never "win" anything. Decades of more military action and tens of thousands of dead solidiers will not change anything in the land that even Ghengis Khan could not tame. Of course you Rightwingnut chickenhawks know better ...

The Soviet Military had equipment that was rusted, there equipment was 2nd rate. We gave the Afghans anti-aircraft weapons and the Soviets crumbled. When the Soviet union fell we found NUCLEAR SITES with ICMB's in such disarray (rust, corrosion) we were not sure if they would even launch. Think our nukes are not hitting the exact spot on the map we want if we ever launched them? |

That explains why a bunch of turban-heads are able to ambush and kill our soldiers so easily. Where was all that sophisticated weaponry in the last week or so when those helicopters crashed [probably shot down] and kiiled so many of our soldiers and CIA? The stuff you read and believe was mostly propoganda from the military machine that live for more money and more weapons and more fighting because it makes them all very rich. Propoganda bullshiit is all it is.

Again ... the questions you avoid.
Fight who to win what? The answers were very clear and the mission winnable when the war in Afghanistan first started. Everything changed when Bushie boy and his puppeteer decided to abandon the mission there and go start their new war in Iraq. That gave the Taliban and Al Queida enough time and space to reconstitue and now they are kicking our azzes. Of course none of that is true for Rightwingnut chickenhawks.
Empty words is all I hear from you all but I do wish for the withdrawal part. That won't happen though. If the mission is simply to prevent the Taliban from taking control of Afghanistan again, nothing short of permanent occupation will accomplish that. If the mission is to keep the Taliban and Al Queida scums in Pakistan, that could be done with the troops already there ... but on a permanent basis.

Fight who? Shoot at who? What uniforms are THEY wearing?
Bring the troops home, send in a billion dollars worth of Cat equipment,fertilizer,seeds, bricks and mortar, let the friendlies be able to grow food and establish some type of economy, they will be able to deal with the bad guys once they realize what a decent life is all about. |

That's not true. We're still fighting against Taliban fighters.
If you're saying that the civilians prefer Taliban rule, then it's time to take the gloves off and let the Military do their thing.
I haven't forgotten 9/11. It sounds as if you have. |

Now hold da f*kk up here!!!!! Why sending 40k+ troops in Afghanistan instead of promote 1,000 troops to search Osama? We're not in afghanistan to police and supervise their problems, we're suppose to go after osama. That's what is wrong with our corrupted congress people. They listen to war companies money too much.

That's not true. We're still fighting against Taliban fighters.
If you're saying that the civilians prefer Taliban rule, then it's time to take the gloves off and let the Military do their thing.
I haven't forgotten 9/11. It sounds as if you have.

Oh yea, that OBL guy. The guy that Obama said he would get until after he was elected.
This administration doesn't seem to feel Terrorism is a problem. Instead, they view it as something we'll just have to live with.
I wonder hypothetically, if this Administration had been in charge in 1941, what our reaction would have been? |

The administration still uses the word Taliban as a catch all phraSe. It would be hard for even them to say we are fighting terrorists in their own country.
We have invaded a soveriegn country on bull****t terms, same as the Soviets, Ghengis Khan, Alexander, etc.
The civilians are protecting their homeland from invaders, once again. |

They were Al-Qaeda Terrorists, supported fully by the Taliban (Al-Qaeda run) in Afghanistan.
That's not revisionist history. That's fact. Most of the Al-Qaeda people involved in 9/11 were of Saudi backgrounds. While there may well have been people in Saudi Arabia who cheered 9/11, I can tell you there were also people right here who also celebrated.
We don't, however, attack people for having sick beliefs. We do take actions when these sick beliefs are manifested in the form of murder of 3000 innocent Americans. |

God Bless the troops, may the Devil get the politicians for sending them to a bullsht place and undeclared war.
Disagree. The mission was to conquer the enemy. Now, the objective is completely muddled.
Having an inexperienced White House running the War rather then relying upon their General is the problem. For, this White House appears more concerned with politics then they seem concerned with National Defense.
My guess at this point....There will be a negotiated truce with the Taliban, a truce which will be seen as a surrender by the enemy, our troops will be redeployed and Obama's base will be happy.
Longer term, what happens as a result of this move, probably not good.
6 full years in Afghanistan under Bush/Cheney and we were winning the War? |

| Bottom line what will the zero do? He was the one who stated he would make a decision when there was a clear winner. The community organizer called kharzai to congratulate him....well, what next? Schnit or get off the pot. The guy was probably never a boy scout and now we have to count on him to make military decisions. What about the General? He's got some experience, wouldn't you think? The arrogant one just needs to make a decision. That's all. Is that so much to ask? |
