These men were in a security check point where they had been living for the past few weeks it is ment to be secure, it is ment to be a place were they can take of there armour and relax for a while. Before going back out and risk there lives again. they had also been living with the men of the afgan police, who they were training, for as long if not longer than they were living there.

the soldiers were not to blame for the surprise attack of one or two men in side the one place of relitave safety they had. and you calling the brave men, who have died trying to help not only our coutry but Afganistan aswell, stupid is insulting and very disrespectful to these men and all the armed services currently serving.

my heart goes out to the familys of these men.

Originally posted by Zosynspiracy I admire the Afghan people for standing up to the US and other countries and protecting their culture. Most of the tribes and people just want to be left alone.

What I find disgusting is that the west and Americans and others view the Taliban as archaic, barbaric, savages. We look down on their culture in utter disgust for the so called evilness that it represents. But did Native Americans treat women or each other any better? Did the Mayans? The Aztecs or countless cultures across the span of the last 1000 years? I mean come on. If Americans witnessed half of the atrocities Aztec and Mayan civilizations perpetuated against their own people and enemies they'd throw up. Yet we admire their culture hundreds of years later. What's the difference between human sacrifice and cutting off someone's head for sharia law?


I honestly have to say this is the silliest post I have seen in over a week. You obviously have no idea of what you speak. The Afghani people are not the taliban, and the taliban are not the "afghani" people. Start there. May I ask, do you know how the Aztec/Mayan women were treated? Who are you to know such intimate details? Is living in the past "archaic?" or is this just a made up word? Countless cultures with the religious fundamentalist zeal of the taliban? Please name 3. Also, why "If Americans witnessed half the atrocities...they would throw up" what about the other half? Is it really half or more like 34% of atrocities? Let's not nitpick here. And who again is doing the admiring? Give me 4 names. Your final question simply proves that you have not thought about this issue for more than a minute. Geeze. God Bless the men who died.
