President Obama has announced his own plan for a 35,000 troop 'surge' in Afganistan. It is a shame that 8 years and 3 months after the 9/11/2001 attacks, we are still spilling blood and spending gazillions of dollars over in that wasteland. If we had stayed there and finished what we started, in 2002, instead of traipsing off to Iraq and squandering thousands of lives and gazillions of dollars on a foolish and unnecessary war, chances are we would not be facing the nearly impossible situation we find our selves facing today.
And while we're talking about it, why the hell is our government not involving any of the neighboring countries in the region, at the very least, in dialogue, in an effort to find a "regional" solution to a problem that is not of our making.
I'm just sayin.
