The reason we are struggling over there is we get worried about killing 9 childern. Listen to the brother of the killed man. He instantly says he has no choice but to kill americans. No, he could actually point out where the insurgents are living. The truth is, they are protecting the terrorists, the same one that did attack us on 911 and would be back here agian if they had the choice. Look at the population in the main parts of the county. Before our invasion, 5000 afghani girls were enrolled in school, now the number is 2.1 million and would be probably be higher if the Taliban did not inflict its will in many areas.

The worst thing we could do would be to leave. It will embolden those that hate us and leave those who embraced us at risk. People can try to say that they will hate us, but look at history. Do the Germans or Janpenese hate us. No. But the North Koreans still are a thorn in our side. We left Veitnam and watched the the killing of millions in bordering Cambodia.

My father was one of the children in Germany who watched many of his freinds and family die in WWII. He watched people starve to death in front of him. He also remembers when the Nazi party hung the mayor in his town for being Jewish. The price of war is exactly what is needed to keep people from embracing it. When we try to fight without a price, we fail. Do it fast and strongly, like the pulling off of a bandage. Trying to fight on terms that protect everyone protects noone. It is why we lost in Vietnam and why we are struggling in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Liberals love to embrace the Wiki leak documents while still questioning why we went into Iraq. The truth of many actions are hidden from us to keep diplomatic peace. The wiki leaks indicate we went on the bidding of Saudi Arabia, but I think we can add Isreal and other middle Eastern Countries to into the mix. On the same note, if we had hit hard the first time and turned the capital of Iraq into dust, we would see a different mood in the country. Pussy footing around has cost millions of lives that could have been saved. People will always question the dropping of A bombs on Hirosaki, but in the end they saved many more lives then they cost. Until people realize that war is not pretty and not fair, we will continue to loose more than we actually save.
