They should send in this guy. The war would be over after 3 days.

Good Canadian lad.

 

I'd rather we just piped in Celine Dion to the Afgan caves.

 

They'd fucking surrender faster than the Titanic went down.

 

(Not Bryan Adams though as that's Stu's personal favourite. And yes, it is favourite with a u)

Fuck pleasing the geneal population, action should have swift, heavy and decisive. If the Afghan people were so concerned about there well being they would have revolted against the Taliban regime a long time ago.

 

Yeah, despite famine and droughts and a dispersed rural population a revolution against a militaristic organisation which has first option on almost all resources and remains heavily armed from conflicts in the 80s should be a doddle. (Sorry this should all be in past tense as I'm talking about the situ in 2001 when it kicked off)

 

Besides I thought it was always meant to be just as likely that OBL was in Pakistan anyway.

Disgraceful. 

 

"One of the more disturbing incidents canvassed in the documents released on Thursday comes from prior work by military sociologist Samantha Crompvoets, who was tasked with examining special forces culture and began to hear disturbing allegations of war crimes.

One soldier told her:

“Guys just had this blood lust,” he said. “Psychos. Absolute psychos. And we bred them.”

She heard one incident in which two 14-year-old boys were stopped by SAS, who decided they might be Taliban sympathisers. Their throats were slit.

“The rest of the troop then had to ‘clean up the mess’ by finding others to help dispose of the bodies,” Crompvoets reported. “In the end, the bodies were bagged and thrown in a nearby river.”

 

Her work eventually triggered the Brereton report."

Unsurprising and yet utterly horrifying. I look forward to the cunt Scummo and his buddy Rupert manufacturing some emergency or the other to quietly sweep this under the rug.

and the rest of them.

Spanish and Dutch

 

The won because Jamaica/India was more important to the British in the late 1700 and a overstretch army. Not to mentioned the continental army and its allies outnumbering the British and allies by nearly 2.5 to 1

what I find depressing is that millions of Afghan school girls are now terrified of the future ruled by the Talaban and condemned to a shit life of no education, rape and forced marriages. Its a fucking horrific situation but nobody in the west is ever sending an army there again. 

Well the East tried sending an army there and they didn't do any better themselves.

When you're wounded and left on Afghanistan's plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Jest roll to your rifle and blow out your brains 
An' go to your Gawd like a soldier.
Go, go, go like a soldier,
Go, go, go like a soldier,
Go, go, go like a soldier,
So-oldier of the Prez!
