Default Afghan insurgents 'on brink of defeat'

Ouch! That must really hurt the Bush haters, who are they going to hammer when the terrorists are killed and Iraq and Afghanistan have successful democracies.

Missions by special forces and air strikes by unmanned drones have "decapitated" the Taliban and brought the war in Afghanistan to a "tipping point", the commander of British forces has said.

I would love to be proven wrong in thinking that we are going to be unsuccessful in those countries for the sake of all of those people who are dying needlessly in what has become a circus of car bombings and civilian casualties. I cant wait to hear of the successes of the bush administration.

Everybody is on the brink of defeat at this stage of the election campaign apparently.

How convenient that, as the general election campaign is about to kick in, Al-Qeada is all but defeated in Iraq, and Afghanistan is almost won.

This from the people who told us "Mission Accomplished " 5 years ago.

Default ya see

I told you the Bush/America haters would be coming out of the wood work. It always amazes me that any sane human can justify the homicidal bombings on anyone and everyone that al qaeda has done, but the above posts continue to follow the nut jobs that still breath air on this planet.

So America, and Great Britain have led the charge to eradicate this human homicidal filth, but there will always remain those that see it as a bad thing. It is just like those that still worship hitler, stalin, and every other murderous dictator, a perplexing behavior indeed.

hmm, I'm sorry, it's just that having been sold so many bad cars by used car salesmen, another pitch just looks like another pitch. I appreciate the flag waving rah rah and everything but the one thing I wouldn't classify the last 5 years as, is 'successful'. Well at least not from any great moral point of view, or a US economy point of view [not for Joe Average at least].
Let me summarise:
'we got one guy who wasn't fighting us, and let go one who was. In that process we trashed the middle east.'

If anything it looked like a war to see how much money could be dropped on cool (*)(*)(*)(*), or 'lost' to primary defence contractors while the economy tanked at home trying to keep those contracts coming.
Tax dollars burning, but not to get Bin Laden. Stupid healthy profits for every so called patriot company swarming around the Iraq corpse like flies. can you say "where are my AK47s I bought for the Iraqi defence force?"

You'll excuse my cynicism but some of us have seen this movie more than once or twice in our life times.

They can hammer each other, because they are already so good at it!

Good news from Afghanistan - prooves the point that we must keep fighting these terrorists until they are utterly defeated.

Of course Barak Obama wants to sit down and have a chat with these beasts - giving them time to regroup and weaken the alliance of democracies against these terrorists.

To finish the war on terror we need McCain at the helm.
