“Iraq, and Afghanistan were better off before the USA started to straighten things out”

That is an unfounded statement. Saddam Hussein’s government did not allow internetional journalists into the country, let alone let them move about freely or report what they saw– therefore your claim is completely speculatory at best. Fact is after we invaded the country was flooded with journalists looking for any story thety could find, and any given day they would show one burning palm tree while 10,000 grew healthy in the sun.
Saddam fostered a society of unspeakable brutality and when we freed them they were like freeing a zoo’s animals– they will eventually sort it out but blaming Bush for long simmering sectarian violence is silly. If a family abuses its children do you look away or intervene? Will you blame someone for breaking up the family or let daddy continue to molest the children?

I agree with your assessment of him and feel his comments are off topic and silly. I do not however feel that silencing or banning him is consistent with the American ideals we promote which include free speech. Even for dimwits.

While I agree and nothing is more pathetic than leftist self flagellation and defeatism, shutting them up amounts to fascism and that is so repulsive it alone justifies letting them say whatever they like, and being happy they are allowed to.
Doesn’t mean we can’t laugh at them though.

The Video was obtained by a non-profit group called NEFA Foundation (nine eleven finding answers). A friend of mine who works with NEFA told me over two years ago that the Taliban were going to make a come back in Afghanistan. All information they obtain via their sources are forwarded on to DOJ, DOD, etc... If you're interested in the fight on terror check out their web site at: www.nefafoundation.org

for what appears to have been such an important route though, one would assume more assets would have been put into keeping it closed. Not just about soldiers though; Medieval kings didnt put their castles in the bottom of a valley to close such valleys, they put them high up the hillside. Its a basic rule of war not to put stationary structures in such an indefensible position :/ From those heights they could dominate the valley(s).

On top of that, the link i provided explains their surveillance support in the form of UAVs, were taken away just prior to this attack occuring — air support (apaches in this case) could well have made a major difference had knowledge of such a large scale attack had been known beforehand if they turned up half an hour earlier etc.
