U.S. Combat Deaths In Afghanistan Highest in Years.

Obama's side kick and hand picked successor, Killary Clinton, also was in favor of our war in Iraq. Maybe she thought we could just drop some bombs and, voila, achieve the desired results like in Libya when she and Barack were fans of regime change and co-conspirators in war crimes there. Hillary the Hawk: A History

Hillary never saw a war she wouldn't support.

Same can’t be said of President Trump, who has kept us out of wars with Syria, North Korea, Russia, Iran, and China.

U.S., allies strike Syria in response to suspected chemical attack

Yea, he bombed an airfield and the left howled he was taking us to war. Are we at war with Syria?

Yes.

Hundreds of U.S. Troops Leaving, and Also Arriving in, Syria

Sure bub, we’re “at war” with Syria because we have a few hundred troops there to train and work with the Kurdish in northeast Syria to hunt down and kill ISIS remnants trying to overthrow the Syrian government.

You're really stretching.

We always claim we are simply providing "training". That was the excuse we used in Vietnam. It no longer works. They aren't interested in our training. How did our training in Iraq work? These are people who have been fighting for centuries. There is nothing we can teach them.

Obama tried to argue we weren't at war either. It's all a lie. Everything has been a lie.

U.S. combat deaths in Afghanistan highest in years

Why are we still getting our soldiers killed there? What's the end game? What are we supposedly fighting for? What do we win?

There never was an end game except to create a shit sandwich and be stuck with it forever

Never should have invaded

So we shouldn't have gone after the assholes who hit the Twin Towers?

The assholes that hit the towers were Saudi Arabian. There were no ties to 9/11 with Iraq. However over a dozen democrats had stated that Iraq had WMDs and was primed to use them. Saddam also violated the no fly zone and shot at American fighter jets. It was an act of war. The Iraq war was 100% justified, but not due to 9/11.

I was talking about AFGHANISTAN.

Nice try asshole, you tried to equate the few hundred troops we have in Syria currently to the Obama’s call for regime change. Now you’re trying to equate it to Vietnam. President Trump is NOT calling for a regime change in Syria.

But please, continue exposing yourself for the fucking idiot you are.

I have never once mentioned Trump and regime change in any post. When Trump does something it's difficult to determine a reason.

US soldiers should never fight a war in any other country other than the USA.

....so, lets say a foreign country [ like maybe--ahhhhhh say --ahhh Japan ] attacks the US, destroys a naval base and kills thousands--we should do--------NOTHING??!!!

..or let's say some terrorists murder more Americans than were killed at said naval base--we should do -----NOTHING???!!!

There are many who deserve nothing less than rotting in hell for what we have done here.


The local doctor recorded a cellphone video to document the dead faces, freckled with shrapnel and blood, coated with dust and debris. Some were Afghan men of fighting age, but most – dozens of them – were women and children. Taza was 3 years old. Maida was 2. Zia, 1.

The hot summer wind kicked up dust, smoke and the smell of gunpowder as villagers tried to make sense of why their remote village was demolished by an American airstrike in the middle of the night.

A clue was found near several of the dead Afghan fighters: ID badges from the private security company at the American-controlled airfield up the road.

Why had a team of U.S. soldiers and Marines battled its own paid security detail?

Inside the U.S. military raid against its own security guards that left dozens of Afghan children dead

None of my original question have been answered. Why? Why are we doing this?

easy:
1. if you knew anything about war/combat/etc, you would know it is very confusing -ESPECIALLY Afghanistan compared to WW2
2. there have been numerous attacks on US personnel by supposed friendlies
3. there are friendly fire accidents sometimes in battles
4. civilians die in wars --this is part of wars
etc

 

[sparky]

I only have one rule i'd like respected when we send our troops anywhere

LET THEM WIN

It's always tragic to lose a member of the Military in combat but for some historic perspective we lost 6,000 Marines in a month, six months before the end of WW2 on a stinking island we could have bypassed. 128 Police Officers died in the line of duty in 2019 and when President pulled Troops out of Syria the left went nuts. Trump is stuck with the war that Obama didn't want to fight for eight years and democrats use as a political tool..

ok MR General Perfect...you could've won WW2 with many less casualties, I guess!!!!
..how long have you been a high level operations officer in the military???
....and which island are you yakking about?Iwo.?
1. hindsight is 20/20
2. you ALWAYS want emergency landing fields/closer fields to the battle zone
--this saves aircraft and more importantly PILOTS and crew which are more valuable
3. there were many battles with many casualties--doesn't mean they were worthless
JESUS Christ Mr Perfect General--sometimes battles don't go as planned!!!
4. it would have taken men/planes/ships/subs/etc to keep the Bonins neutrilized anyway if there was no invasion
etc

When we do it we call it collateral damage. When they do it we call it terrorism.

Dumb argument.

When we do it, it is not intentional, with the goal of terrorizing and killing people randomly. It's a mistake, and often ends up being investigated, and sometimes people are penalized if they acted improperly.

When they do it, they are deliberately and intentionally targeting the people hit, to specifically cause random death and terror.

Our military does not target people who have no military value. We do not drop bombs on schools like Assad did.

you just proved you know NOTHING about military/history/terrorism
..if civilians die in battle zone/etc, it's NOT terrorism--DUH
..terrorists directly target civilians --huge difference..US servicemen usually do NOT target civilians
when we do what??!!! hahahahhah --as policy, 99% of the time we do not directly target cvilians
...you are WAY off target---and wrong

It wasn't an argument. It was a statement.

When you drop bombs on homes full of people it is on purpose.
