Afghanistan is not worth fighting

[2tr4nqued]

Oh, I'm just loving this. We're not done yet. Obama says he wants to "finish the job" in Afghanistan.

Here's a clip from the NY Times:

President Obama said on Tuesday that he will announce his decision on how many more troops to send to Afghanistan next week, and that it is his intention to “finish the job” that began with the overthrow of the Taliban government in the fall of 2001.

What does that even mean? How long is that supposed to take? It will take 4 times as long as Obama thinks. If we are going to finish the job, is that really only going to take 40,000 more troops in Afghanistan? "Finish the job." That sounds HUGE! How long, how much will it cost, how many are we willing to see die for it?

The war is not worth fighting.
The goals are unrealistic and unachievable.
Continuing the war will end in disaster, like Vietnam.
The war is too expensive in life and money.

Americans people should refuse to be forced to continue this war. We don't want it. We are being forced to kill against our will. We have to make it stop. We cannot continue to be forced around like this.

Support conscientious objectors and AWOL soldiers. The only way to stop this war is if our soldiers are brave enough to refuse to fight.

5. If we want to end the wars

we'll have to sit in the streets and muck up the economy. It's too bad Obama has put us in this position where that is our only choice for dealing with the government.
