Reality check
-
I look at how many people these peasants have killed and think "Screw 'em". The Taliban have banned singing, laughing, stopped children from flying kites etc. Bunch of miserable cunts with ugly women who need to stop praying and start living and laughing. Nuke the whole fucking country and be done with it.

its easy for you to say it Dave. I'm living in one of this f***ing countries. but I'm asking you, if this so easy for you to nuke a hole country and burn it to the ground then what is the differences between you and that f***ing taleban? you think you know something about pain? then I suggest you come and live in this s**thole that I am living in, just for a month and then talk about pain.

I have served in some shitholes in my time, and was there in the desert in Gulf 1. I hated it but had a job to do. Back then we were fighting Saddam's soldiers (mostly scared boys who were drafted and were only too happy to be captured and fed, if truth be known). The guys over there now are fighting cowards who will not wear a uniform and who use women and children to carry bombs into market places. Why are they not saying "No". If they stopped fighting and started working, built an infrastructure, pretended they were ready to join the 21st century and humanity then their lives would improve no end. But they cannot, for they need to stick to the rigid demands of these extremists. The fact that they do this is telling, and is sad.

I could never agree more with erfan and I live in Israel in which many people think like "nuke them all". I wish however to point out an historical truth. EVERY nation/empire that tried to tame the tribes in that area throughout the ages got its behind kicked eventually. So I say live and let live. If they want help let them ask for it. If they want to be super religious fanatics and treat women like possession then let's hope that if there is some kind of higher power, that it is a rational one and will punish them accordingly at some point or another. This global village idea of "nuke" them then go in and help them is really so late sixties early seventies. People just die in vain because of it. And one more thing. I really do not think that most of the people are extremists. Because they are not as such they can't mentally descent to the level of brutality extremists do unless they hit rock bottom and then some (see Arab Spring).

Dave, that comment is bang out of order. Murder is never, ever an acceptable answer. Would you rather we descended to the same level?

Pete, I think using children to carry bombs into public spaces is bang out of order, but the Afghans seem to think it is ok. If the west were serious about stopping religious terrorism, they wouldn't need to nuke, they would just pull out. Pull out aid, business, investment, banks, commerce, everything. Close the borders, let no-one in from a pariah state. And when they start starving to death, we do nothing, we simply say that "Your god will provide for you". I think then they will realise that they are fucked. At the heart of the problem is religion, and if they want to kill us in it's name, we should offer to do the same back. If you disagree then that is fine, but it is my view and as such is as valid as any other.

They are all complicit. When we in Britain decided we didn't like our leaders or the direction society was taking, we had a civil war (or four in fact), or we executed the King (six times). The same in France, America, Russia etc. The people wouldn't take it anymore. But in Afghanistan they just sit there and let these fuckers do what they want. Either they support them or they don't, and if they don't then why are they not killing the taliban? The terrorists do not live in isolation, they are there in the towns and villages, and the population of these places is feeding them, offering them sanctuary and support, and doing so for what reason? Presumably because they agree with them. So they are not innocent as you state, but guilty by association.

For the record I didn't down vote you (I don't vote in the lounge) It is a over simplification to say they should just help in killing those bad apples. What if one of them was your son? Brainwashed into thinking he was doing the right thing. By your definition we should be having a civil war right now in Belgium (Nobody likes the way it is run right now and what will happen in the next few months (more taxes again, corruption, ...) but the fact is we are still getting paid and as long as that happens I doubt anything major will change. Some people over there are taking a stand, those in there police force, there military, ... The problem with terrorists is that they are hard to find and don't have any moral compass. They will happily hide behind a child to save there own life. As I said there are a lot of bad apples over there but that's no reason the nuke the whole country. (And if not for the people think about the natural resources that would be lost because of it and the damage to the earth in a whole, yeah yeah I know you probably didn't literally mean nuke but... ;P )

As I said below, it could be done simply by pulling out. No bombs needed, they would breed themselves into starvation.

This is so simplistic as to be ridiculous. Do you think that everyone in North Korea supports the regime there? Or that people in Communist controlled Eastern Europe liked the direction of their society? Or, for that matter, the French in 1787? Revolution is difficult and dangerous, particularly in a place where the leadership also controls access to information and weaponry. Also, almost every country will stick together even with a pretty bad leadership if it is being invaded by foreigners. A lot of what is branded 'terrorism' is aimed at the invading forces and so can more accurately be termed 'resistance' or 'guerilla warfare' (though there's no excuse for the attacks on Afghan police and civilians).

Have you ever watched the news? Most killing in Afghanistan is aimed at local populations, not military. Ditto Iraq, Sunni and Shia fighting each other. (Presumably over the royalties).

I am sorry if I was aggressive. and i realy respect you for fighting saddam. dave, this people are grown in dark an fear, specially their women. they know nothing about their human rights, most of them. in my country most people think someday some holy guy will come from the sky and free them of pain! this is what they are told since they were a baby and believe me its so hard to get away from this s**ty ideas when there is no freedom to talk or even think! so they think this is the truth, they should wait and live their miserable life. but not all of them are like this. I understand that you are mad about them (me too) but not all of them are like this. we had many people have been killed in last years trying to say that they don't want this and i were among that people. and I'm saying they deserve to have a normal life. "The guys over there now are fighting cowards who will not wear a uniform and who use women and children to carry bombs into market places." those creatures who do this things they are not human. a human can not do this.

I did not know you were a Taliban yourself. :-(
No, I am not. I had the balls to put on a uniform and stand on the line. They are cowardly motherfuckers who hide in women's clothing and send children to fight for them. Ever worn a uniform? Ever been in harms way? Ever been shot at? No? Then you have no view on what it takes to do that shit.

I may have over-reacted and been rather aggressive myself, but I have known people who have been injured and, so far one person, killed in Afghanistan. I have also been in battle, and I will not hide the fact that I was scared. You never know if you are coming home. I did, thankfully, and wouldn't want to do it again. But why are we there and fighting for people who do not want to stand up to the fuckers we are saving them from?

Ever been shot at?Honestly, no. But it does not require someone to be on the battlefield to criticize a battle.
