Peace groups across the country, including Veterans for Peace and United for Peace & Justice, have called on citizens across the country to take the next three days, November 23rd through 25th, as call-in days to oppose the escalation of the war in Afghanistan. This call comes as President Obama faces critical decisions regarding the war effort, and against the backdrop of continued NATO casualties. 2009 has been the deadliest year for United States troops since the war began.

1. "Talking point": Afghanistan is not vital to preserve our national security

...Afghanistan is looking like S. Vietnam, where the US was propping up an unpopular government.

I was only five years old when Vietnam went down, so I had to reconstruct that from history.
