I'm sorry folks. A patient walked in right as I posted it and had to leave the keyboard.

It is fixed now.

Wheres that peace-bringing army when you need them? honestly one would think there are no US or any troops at all in Afghanistan with this kind of wild-west stuff happening.

Its not easy for me to say it but European countries need to make a bigger contribution there
at least security forces not combat troops but we may be able to prevent such atrocities from happening.

Its just sad that things aren't improving visibly there but the strategic worth of Afghanistan should be reason enough to stay there.

People also get killed for this kind of thing in other countries, just because it's in Afghanistan it makes it front page news.

Would you mind supplying a reference to that claim?

Thank you.

this article once again proves to us that the organized religion multiplied by ignorance is the source of all major -ups on this planet. it has been for centuries, and will be for centuries in the future.

on a side note, it doesnt seem like the presence of NATO in Afghanistan changed anything in this country. same puppy seed plantations, same level of culture of the people. what a hell hole.

Thank you for your reference, but I don't think it compares.

Passion crimes have existed throughout history. This transcends that sort of thing many times over. It is religeous persecution on a governmental level, done in a public manner.

Much different.

they where not sanctioned executions for "immoral" conduct.

Mothering beasts they stay on their high horse and regulate morality for the rest by divine mandate harsh measures need to be implemented to ensure the security of the population against these type of threats.


So yes if you ask me Afghanistan is better now than before the invasion beacuse it has the potential to rise up now with the USA there they can at lest promote a more civilized way of life and to some degree enforce them.

You have to remember this was in a "militant-controlled region", i.e there is no government/ISAF enforced law here. Only the "crazed" (my opinion) religious rantings that are seen as law in these areas.
If say the Westboro baptist church was in charge of a "militant-controlled region" do you think they wouldn't kill people who were going against "God's will" ?

what, after 8 years of NATO presence, there are still militant-controlled regions ? shocker!

what exactly are these troops doing there, may I ask? playing soccer and eating poppy-seed rolls?

There were a lot less until our little field trip to Iraq

[Panzerbear]

you mean after the European "militaries" took command ?

also, why are we constantly engaging in vitual penis measurment contests of US vs China or Russia or whoever the hell else, if US can't even effectively operate in two defeated middle-eastern countries?

We need more boots on the ground. Something no one is willing to do. I mean were essentially expected to keep control of 2 countries with less than 200,000 soldiers. All the technology and training in the world can't do that, and no one wants to put in the tax dollars to support a real effort, once we snuff out resistance in one region it pops up in another. A big problem is my opinion is people see them as just that, 2 backwater middle eastern countries, they don't show the enemy enough respect. In my opinion (again my opinion but I think many would agree) Iraq and Afghanistan would be non issues, if we went on a mad recruiting campaign and had 3-500k soldiers a piece in Iraq and afghanistan. The United States Military is designed to fight and destroy conventional military's which it does with brutal efficiency, it is not designed to be an occupying police force.

At this point we are relying on the new governments of said nations to take responsibility for their countries and they just plain suck at it.

and that is why, my friend, NATO has exhausted itself as an effective military alliance and became a zoo. the very minute your leader has to travel to your allies and beg for more military commitment to a common cause the glorious alliance became a circus of the absurdity.
