		<description>Slow learners?
My take on this is that there may be a lot of inbreeding happening. Cousin on cousin ..... not brother and sister.</description>

		<description>OneAmericanCitizen, that&#039;s what I&#039;m trying to figure out. Why Obama is stopped burning down the heroin that pays for their war. 

They bizarre part is the musims are so anti-drinking, but I saw a recent documentary and I forgot how many in Afganistan are addicted to heroin, but it showed women, toddlers, smoking it, and blowing it in baby&#039;s mouth, and the one woman, said it helped them sleep better. And so they will chop off heads for any stupid thing, no pork, (it is a grave sin to eat pork) they can&#039;t do sports, (it takes attention away from God). I saw a clip of one soldier who said you can shoot the taliban several times, and they don&#039;t go down easy, so I think like the North Vietnamies,  they smoke before they strike for courage, and to be able to last a bit longer if they are shot, but also hurts their aim. My sniper buddy trained Iraqies his first year over there to shoot, and he said they were slow learners, but maybe they were high.</description>

		<description>How did the Taliban become such a force to deal with? Where did they get their money? Heroin trade? Saudia Arabia? Pakistan?

Where are the Kurds and the Northern Alliance? All the chieftans who supported us in 2002? 

We need to do what worked in Iraq. Buy off the war lords directly - by-passing Karzai &quot;the caped one&quot;. 

Then take out the poppy fields and teach them to grow organic bell peppers which are about the same price as the opium poppy.

Seriously, we could buy the entire crop directly from the growers with credits for food, clothes, etc.  Breaking the pipeline for three or more years could end the problem.

Obama then could make the herion availble to seniors at their end-of-life counseling session.</description>

		<description>&quot;When British helicopters swooped in...&quot; Ha! Permit me to doubt that ever happened, given the acute shortage of choppers being experienced by UK troops over there. One reason they&#039;re taking so many casulaties is because they have to walk or drive everywhere, since Gordon Brown, our snot gobbling, nail biting, Cyclopean Prime Minister, cut the Army&#039;s helicopter budget from £4m to £2.5m back in 2004, and now there ain&#039;t enough whirly birds to do the job.</description>

		<description>Under Obama, there is zero chance we will do what is necessary to win in Afghanistan.  Surrender is inevitable.  It&#039;s only a question of how manyheroes will die before he cuts and runs.</description>
