Really? What was USS Cole and 9/11? Just an accident? Maybe they didn't see the massive ship or the colossal building in front of them? Maybe the sun was in their eyes? Or was it religious fervor that blinded them?
We have no illusions of what we're doing in Afghanistan. They were protecting the guy we wanted and we're there to kick the everloving shyte out of the a-holes who oppose us.
Wow! Where do you get your information from?
It wasn't the US that prevented the rebels from forming their government, it was PAKISTAN that did that. It was Pakistan's proxy Hekmetyar who refused to join in the power sharing and bombed Kabul. It was Pakistan that raised the Taliban to start the Afghan war anew. There's a reason why the entire world including the UN recognized that govt as the legitimate govt of Afghanistan and only Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and UAE recognized the Taliban govt.
If you already know which house belongs to a civilian and which one belongs to the terrorist, why don't you just attack the homes of the terrorists? What's the point of evacuating the entire town and then bombing it? And are you sure when you evacuate these towns, the terrorists aren't just walking out along with your civilians? Oh by the way, there's no way of knowing who's getting killed since there is no independent corroboration anyway. So for all we know most of the dead might be civilians.
Yeah, the four minarets around Hagia Sophia and Timurlane stand as testaments to your tolerance. A large population is not a sign of anything other than lack of family planning and foresight.
That delusional rant deserves its own chapter in the journal of psychological studies. Here's the reality. Your religion has the largest proportion of people enslaved and ruled by tyrants. You bow to every tyrant that shows up and have for hundreds of years. You didn't defeat the soviets WE financed the operation, YOU provided the cannon fodder till they started having economic problems at home and withdrew. You didn't defeat us in Afghanistan, we kicked the shyte out of your Taliban govt and sent them packing. You didn't defeat us in Iraq, we knocked off Saddam on a whim. We came into your country and killed your hero and tossed his body into the ocean. We fly our drones in your country whenever it pleases us. We enforce no-fly zones whenever we feel like it. We sanction countries on a whim. In both Afghanistan and Iraq, killing your own people to spite us is not exactly considered winning anywhere in this world except maybe in your mind.
And you're gonna buy us out?? Seriously? The 300 million of us have more money and more assets than your entire 1.8 billion population. You depend on us for aid through the world bank and IMF just to keep your head above water and you're dreaming of buying our assets. If you had anywhere close to that ability you wouldn't be lining outside our consulates through the world to try to move here.
Finally, you know those people you describe who bow to no one and buy and sell nations at their whim, that's us you're describing, not you. Make no mistake about it, this is our world, you just live in it.
