180. Why did we go to war in Afghan? Because 3000 people were murdered supposedly by AL Que ada
Edited on Sun Aug-01-10 01:12 AM by flyarm
there are less than 100 Al Que ada in Afghan today, according to our own government reports.

We did not go to war against the Taliban but it has now morphed into that.

If our enemy has been all but eradicated there, Why are we still there and why has Obama increased our troops and mercenaries there?

This was and is a bogus war for war profiteers.

This is a war for our government to make sure war profiteers get $$$$$$$$$$$

When Bush was in the White House Rummy admitted 2 trillion $$ were missing, Now it is 800+ billion

Does anyone believe none of that money has ended up back here in Some people running for office's coffers?

What bettter way to funnel money?

On aprrox 2001 May 22,2001 ..Bush and Cheney gave 43 million( of your tax dollars) to the Taliban..in direct opposition/violation to What instructions the Clinton Admin had forwarded to the Bush admin..The Taliban was told , turn over Bin Laden or no money..Bush and Cheney defied that.

The Taliban is now the boogey man.And yet to this day, your tax dollars are going to the Taliban..while they still kill our soldiers.

And there are people pissed off at Julian??????

WTF is wrong with people here..this is not the DU or DU'ers I used to think I knew.

Julian has killed no one, and it is supposition that anyone will or could die with the documents released..but I sure as fuck know my government has killed many many many many innocent people..both in Afghan and Iraq.

Did you know for instance, when Bush started his war of lies in Iraq, more than 50% of the population In Iraq was under the age of 15..most Iraqi citizens were highly educated..and yet still today many have problems getting electricity..and clear water to drink.

In Sept 2001 my co-workers were killed on 9/11 , did you know many many of the familys were totally against either of these wars?

I thank Julian,for bringing truth into the air.. because nothing will ever bring my co-workers back..nor my neighbors kids who were killed on 9/11..and the future terrorists of the world and who will be aiming at Us ..we have now Created! All I can say is, God help our kids and their future.We have now created a sleeping tiger..and one who will be justified in their anger and wanting revenge for what we have done to them!

Do not think for a moment that other countries and those we attacked viciously and have treated like animals or worse don't know what we have done..they damn well know what we have done..it is only dumb fucked Americans that do not know!

Maybe because someone had the Guts Like Julian, we can stop these wars with the exposure of truth..if and when Americans do find out the truth and hopefully somehow and some way we can right the wrong we have done.

I thank you Julian.sincerely!

33 yr flight crew of one of the Airlines involved on 9/11 ..NY Based ..now retired.
