Reply #30: I want that stopped as much as the next person

However besides Afghanistan things like that or worse things take place in

Iran
Pakistan
Yemen
Sudan
Somalia
North Korea........

I can go on, the point is yes atrocities happen in war and even not in war. Why are you so hell bent on sending 30,000 more people like me and my friends to intervene in internal affairs in Afghanistan. Al Qaeda is gone, mission accomplished we win. Now we are left fighting the Taliban, who are scum, but who are the people of the country. NOW we are engaged in a civil war in a foreign land and we are taking sides. The Tajiks, Hazara and Uzbeks are hardly better than the Pashtun. It's a shitty world. Again I never cease to be amazed at the armchair warriors who want to put my ass on the line to fight the indigenous population of a country. So what if the Taliban are scum, tje world is full of scum shall we take them all on?
