more on the story here, as article says it was kind of shaky from the getgo, soldier sneaking off base in the middle of the night massacring civilians at 2 separate locations, stacking up bodies and burning them. |

We're involved in a WAR ... It's The Real Thing ... It's not a Movie or a TV Show ... People get mangled, killed, messed-up and go crazy ... It IS unfortunate for EVERYONE that Afghanistan is such a screwed-up Place ... It has NEVER been a "Normal Country" and won't be one after we've gone Home ... THAT isn't OUR Fault ... It's just a Fact ... |

We've been there for over a decade. What is the military objective? What needs to be broken? Who needs to be killed? If you don't have an unambiguous answer for either of these questions, you do not have a military objective, and it is time to bring the troops home. And if the troops are not coming home, follow the money, people. Follow the money.
I never consider a difference of opinion in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as cause for withdrawing from a friend. Thomas Jefferson

If this was premeditated, and other persons were involved with the crime or the coverup, then all involved persons truely ought to be court martialled. Before we can discuss anybody's punishment, their guilt will need to be established in a court of law.

Afghanistan has LONG had a well-deserved Reputation as a WILD Place that hosts PLENTY of internally-generated Violence and Injustice ... Where do you think The Taliban came from -- some other Planet ... ??? Iowa ... ???
