5. me too.
it's past time for the U.S. to get all troops out of both countries- and I say that knowing that doesn't mean that anything will improve for the Iraqis or Afghanis.

6. Oh, and don't forget the 45 people we killed in Pakistan
In another illegal act of war. The only question remains is how many of those 45 "militants" were actually just innocent bystanders. Given our track record, probably most of them.

7. I haven't forgotten it. I was simply writing about what happened today.
You could start a thread on that travesty. You don't really need to play your little games in this thread. Or maybe you do.

9. interesting is`t it...the wars are no longer an issue
the left has accepted obama`s war in afghanistan and iraq does`t warrant a mention. we have left our entire army on the battle fields and the streets of iraq and afghanistan and no one says anything.

12. It wasn't war. It was Bush. Hypocrisy at it's highest level.

10. Up until January 20th,
whenever one person was killed in Iraq or Afghanistan, there was at least 5 threads on the subjects going at the same time. Now it takes 70 to get one, albeit rapidly sinking, thread. Makes you wonder what people were actually outraged about...
