When will the Great Men realize that Afghanistan is a quagmire? As our dear boys spend their blood in those god forsaken mountains, billions of our tax dollars are channeled out of the country into private accounts, elections are rigged, warlords are enriched with profits from poppy production. Sweet Jesus!
The idiocy of this war is mind boggling.

Our presence in Afghanistan is neither winning the hearts and minds of the people, nor is it winning the support of one of the most politically corrupt nations in the world.
Even as we prop up Karzai’s government, he assails us. He enriches himself, his family, his friends, as we spend blood and treasure. For what, I ask?
