KABUL, Afghanistan - President Hamid Karzai on Thursday condemned the use of gunfire by U.S. troops to suppress Afghans angered by a traffic accident involving a military truck that sparked the worst riots in the capital since the fall of the Taliban.

When Puppets rebel.

You think Karzai will end up in the cell next to Noriega?

Karzai is the only "friend" we have in Afghanistan.

It is time to build a fence with a 5 mi wide dmz on the borders. Pull ALL of our troops back from everywhere. Learn to live with the resources we have and tell the world to fuck off. They are all more trouble than they are worth.

LAY..does NOT work...history proved that already....isolationism is a cop out

Afghanistan, "legitimately" occupied and policed by NATO, is a country that has demonstrated its fierce independence over-and-over throughout history. It is no surprise that any "police" agency which is not Afghan national will be disrespected; even attacked.

Indeed, the country has a large Islamic fundamentalist minority, and one which was the foundation of fighting the Soviet invasion and winning that contest, in the end. They will be greatly encouraged by the attacks on the US military by Iraqi terrorists AND significantly assisted by seeing that a large portion of Americans actively hate the military, too, and take every opportunity to revile and denigrate them as murderers, torturers and killers of pregnant Arabs!

You can see these seditious political rats right on this blog, daily, tacitly helping our terrorist enemy, and helping foment riots however unconsciously, by heaping our dead soldiers in "winning stacks" for their Democrat gang, reviling our troops as murderers and listing every single mistake of war as some sort of "victory" for their vote greed, their power greed, their greed to be the masters of American politics and their brand of political correctness . . .

Disgusting antipatriot trash!!!

You can see these seditious political rats right on this blog [Snip remaining idiotic bullshit]

Who forgot to put the gimp back in the cage?

I don't understand. When we buy and pay for a guy like Karzai, why can't they just stay bought and paid for?

Awe! Freedom aint free remember, (act now for your low, low introductory price of only three offspring)

What's a few more dead innocents?

Kids will be kids you know!

Nothing to see here, nothing more than frat house high jinks.

Go Bush! Making the face of global terror an American face.

This nation is morally bankrupt. The military is NOT defending freedom or promoting democracy. Nothing but criminals covering up the crimes of other criminals.

Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki lashed out at the American military on Thursday, denouncing what he characterized as habitual attacks by troops against Iraqi civilians.

As outrage over reports that American marines killed 24 Iraqis in the town of Haditha last year continued to shake the new government, the country's senior leaders said that they would demand that American officials turn over their investigative files on the killings and that the Iraqi government would conduct its own inquiry.

In his comments, Mr. Maliki said violence against civilians had become a "daily phenomenon" by many troops in the American-led coalition who "do not respect the Iraqi people."

"They crush them with their vehicles and kill them just on suspicion," he said. "This is completely unacceptable." Attacks on civilians will play a role in future decisions on how long to ask American forces to remain in Iraq, the prime minister added.


The BBC has uncovered new video evidence that US forces may have been responsible for the deliberate killing of 11 innocent Iraqi civilians.
The video appears to challenge the US military's account of events that took place in the town of Ishaqi in March.

The US said at the time four people died during a military operation, but Iraqi police claimed that US troops had deliberately shot the 11 people.

A spokesman for US forces in Iraq told the BBC an inquiry was under way.

The new evidence comes in the wake of the alleged massacre in Haditha, where US marines are suspected of killing up to 24 Iraqi civilians in November 2005 and covering up the deaths.

The incident is being investigated by the Pentagon.

Maybe Ticktocklok should weat a bullet proof vest to the Festival. Just in case of high velocity chocolate bars, of course.

"The military is NOT defending freedom or promoting democracy. "

Do you really think that's the job of the military? You're way off.

The former Afghani government participated in the 9/11 attack, among others, by providing crucial aid to Al Queda. They were still given an out - handing over Bin Laden and his top people - and chose war instead. Left with no other reasonable choice, we finally responded to a decade of attacks launched out of Afghanistan. We are not there to promote democracy and freedom. We are there because if we had allowed the former government to stay in power, they would have randomly murdered thousands of more Americans. The military is over there protecting us. All the other stuff is bullshit.

Bush did fuck everything up by switching the focus to Iraq, a nation that was not a threat to us. But that's another issue entirely. There would be no sense in having a military at all if we aren't going to use it to respond to direct attacks by a foreign power.

Why you people seem to care whether or not the Afghanis enjoy the occupation is a mystery to me. You best believe they didn't give a shit when their government spent a decade attacking us.

"Why you people seem to care whether or not the Afghanis enjoy the occupation is a mystery to me."

Damn straight! We're Americans. We go where we want, when we want, and do as we please. We are not beholden to anyone, anywhere, anytime. If those goddamn ragheads don't appreciate us being in their country, they should pack up their rice bowls and haul their sorry asses to some other place. Think they'd like it there better? No, and who gives a damn, anyway? Afghanistan: Love it our way or get the hell out!

Capt Medina - Maybe the next time these assholes murder 3,000 people, the corpses should be dropped off at your home so that you can understand what happened. Because you seem to not understand what you saw on TV a few years back. Only a fucking idiot would think we invade Afghanistan for no other reason than a whim.

And what I said is that I don't care if they like being occupied or not because they weren't going to stop attacking us just because we didn't like it. If the only way to get to stop was to invade, then that is what we had to do.

But keep up the idiotic strawman arguements. Maybe you can surplant Redneckville as the #1 douchebag on the site.

"And what I said is that I don't care if they like being occupied or not because they weren't going to stop attacking us just because we didn't like it."

How many Afghans were on the planes that crashed into the WTC, the Pennsylvania field and the Pentagon on 9/11.

It was the Taliban gov't we went after and Al-Qaeda, not the Afghan people.



Congrats to Redneckville for being # 1 on the DR!

If they feel his way about 'cha, ya must be doing something right!

I'll probably have to wrassle 101 for the "biggest douchebag" title, Sully, but hands down, 110% certain, you get the jerkoff prize. Now, clean yourself up and get back to baking me those cookies, sweetheart. Goddamnit, wash you hands first!

You are wrong. The military is not protecting anything, other than corporate profits.
Why is it wrong for them to randomly murder thousands of us, when we have done the same to insure the profits and markets of others?
While willfully giving up our own liberties for the same purpose?
False security and false freedom.

We have destroyed EVERYTHING our founding fathers and mothers gave us. All for a good credit score and the right to steal others resources and blood for profit.

We should have sacrificed more blood on our soil, for our liberty.
Too bad.

"Why you people seem to care whether or not the Afghanis enjoy the occupation is a mystery to me. You best believe they didn't give a shit when their government spent a decade attacking us."

Then why did Bush give them 43 million american tax dollars half way thru that "decade attacking us", (like in 2001)?
Don't run away from what you said -------- again!

"If the only way to get to stop was to invade, then that is what we had to do."

Then why did Bush give them, (TALIBAN) 43 million in American tax dollars in 2001, (three months BEFORE 9-11)?

"It was the Taliban gov't we went after and Al-Qaeda, not the Afghan people."

No shit. And it was not possible to do that without invading Afghanistan. So given the choice between defending ourselves or allowing others to murder us, I think we have to defend ourselves regardless of how anyone else feels about it. Is this really that hard for you people to grasp?

"You are wrong. The military is not protecting anything, other than corporate profits."

I don't know what to tell someone who seems to be ignorant of those fucks dropping two skyscrapers on our heads.

You live in your own world and I hope you enjoy yourself over there but what goes on there isn't relevant to our reality.....


"Redneckville as the #1 douchebag on the site."

Just like momma used to say, (with a tear in my eye).

"Then why did Bush give them 43 million american tax dollars half way thru that "decade attacking us", (like in 2001)?
Don't run away from what you said -------- again!"

I told you that Bush gave the Taliban $ because Bush is a total fucking moron. If you want to argue against that, I'm all ears.

I don't like Bush, I never voted for him and I certainly never defended him giving money to the Taliban. I don't know why you keep bringing this up as some kind of counterpoint to something I've said - other than you being a very dense person who can't tell that you have no point.

" don't know what to tell someone who seems to be ignorant of those fucks dropping two skyscrapers on our heads. "

So why did bush give them, (TALIBAN) 43 million in american tax dollars three months before 9-11?

"You live in your own world and I hope you enjoy yourself over there but what goes on there isn't relevant to our reality"

This:

"You best believe they didn't give a shit when their government spent a decade attacking us."

Half way thru that "decade" Bush gave YOUR money to the taliban.

And this:
"Left with no other reasonable choice, we finally responded to a decade of attacks launched out of Afghanistan"

No other reasonable choice but to give them 43 million dollars.

I Am Sam - You are making a fool of yourself. Defending the invasion of Afghanistan is not the same as defending Bush giving the Taliban money. One act was anti-Taliban and the other was pro-Taliban. They are opposites. None of the quotes you posted in any way defend Bush's donation.

That you seem to think otherwise just betrays some kind of thinking disorder on your part.

LOL! I can just picture Sam thinking "I got him now!" when he's posting those quotes that he thinks a pro-giving money to the Taliban.

Yeah you really showed me - that you're a moron. Time for a new name.

I know what the hijackers did. I have also been around long enough to remember what my Government did to the Afghan people decades ago.
And India. Iran. South Africa. Central and South America. Asia.
Not to mention what they have done to it's own citizens.

All for profit and power.

When the reason of men is dictated by profit and power, everybody loses.

Good thing is that when you are ignorant of the truth, you will not see your end coming. Makes it less painful, and you still dont have to take responsibility for your own actions. Or inaction.

Should have spent more blood here. Now it is too late.

"One act was anti-Taliban and the other was pro-Taliban. They are opposites"
Both done, all within three months, by the same administration.
The issue I have is that you keep talking like Bush had no choice when in fact he did.
He could have not financed the 9-11 attack with American tax dollars.
But you know what; he had to have that pipeline. He wanted that pipeline SO BAD that he gave American money TO TERRORIST! KNOWN FUCKING TERRORIST!
"I can just picture Sam thinking "I got him now!"
You think too much of yourself. 101? You are insignificant to me, just another Bush blower in the dwindling pool of Bush servicers! Your day is coming!
However your pretend reality and conveniently deflective "facts" just aren't going to be accepted anymore. Funny how when Bush does well its all bout HIM, but when he fails its all about THEM.

"The issue I have is that you keep talking like Bush had no choice when in fact he did."

So when I said Bush was a moron for giving them money you took that as "He had to do it". Now I get it: You are insane. I assure you that I don't believe he had to give them money, I never said he did and I never defended it in any other way. You are making up stories and then believing them.

"Funny how when Bush does well its all bout HIM, but when he fails its all about THEM."

I told you I think Bush is a moron like five times in the last two days. I've never voted him. I don't support him. I'm not for the war in Iraq. I don't even think he's handled the war in Afghanistan well. I just think that the US invasion of Afghanistan was necessary and long overdue. Try to focus on what I'm typing instead of what the voices in your head are telling you I said.....

"I told you I think Bush is a moron like five times in the last two days. I've never voted him. I don't support him. I'm not for the war in Iraq. I don't even think he's handled the war in Afghanistan well"

Judas!

If Bush gained back his popularity next week, you would sing:

I told you I think Bush is a brilliant man like five times in the last two days. I've voted for him twice. I supported him. I'm all for the war in Iraq. I think he's handled the war in Afghanistan well"

You know, just like you did back in 2004.
