This is so sad. I've always been a supporter of our efforts in Afghanistan, but with the announced withdrawl and knowing that the Taliban will surely take over when we leave I must tell you I cannot justify the loss on even one more soldier in that country. It's time to leave, and leave with a clear message to those that will come after that if any attack comes from terrorist in that country against us the mountains will be leveled by fire from the heavens. Nuff said.
