2. ...and this number will increase-with much less comment on the main news channels...

the war no longer exists.
How long do we anticipate war in Afghanistan...and what will the reason be next year...and the next?

He was a twenty-seven year old marine. I watched him grow up.

6. Meet Hamid Karzai

or as President Obama calls him, "The Government of Afghanistan".

He was appointed by Bush the Lesser to run Afghanistan.
He is one of the most despicable criminals in The World,
But NOW we like him so much
that our children are fighting and dying in the deserts of Afghanistan to keep him in power.

7. When this was Bush's war there was less support on D.U.

Lately I've read some people's posts which seem to echo talking points the CIA suggests to buil support for the war.

10. A sad K&R.

But hey, who were they anyway? It's not like the people being slaughtered over there are important or anything. I'll bet not one of them has a significant net worth and none of them were going to matter if they had lived.
