I am trying to get a feel for how people feel about the war, i have been watching the news and reading some 3rd party sources and i am not totaly convinced this was the right thing to do, but i do think we needed to do something. But i do think going into afgahnistan to help the opressed people there was a good act.

my opinon is not represented by the options, I'm of the opinion that the attention the gov is giving to the Afgahni's plight is good, but that it took as long as it did to get the gov's attention is bad. I'm further split on the war, it's good in that somethign had to be done, and they've been very restrained about it. However, I'm not wholly convinced it's targetting the best targets, yet at least.

have you heard about these flyers they're dropping over there?  They show "americanized" osama pictures and crap.  It pisses me off that they're that fucking stupid.  The people who came up with the idea, that is.  Fucking idjuts

are you talking about propaganda flyers? they worked great during desert storm. More iraqi conscripts surrendered then were killed. According to Sun Tzu, that is the ultimate achievement :)

as for the war in general, how could it have been considered a bad idea in retrospect in any possible way? we should have gone in there in '93, this whole mess could have been averted.

I think our next target will be iraq. Saddam has too much power for his agenda. If his regime is not taken out, it is only a matter of time before we get nuked.

I dont believe this war is for the better.  Some dude (wow im technical) said a quote about WWII which I think this describes this war, the quote being (in not exact words), "that this war sets us back to the crusades".  I think thats exactly whats happenin.  Even though its not over the same thing i.e. holy land, but it has the same prinicpal i.e. defending our culture and trying to put it as the greatest on on this earth by force.

shouldnt you be a bit more worried about the two nuclear powers of pakistan and india being ready to blow each other to kingdom come! the taliban is pretty much finished and osama is under more of a manhunt than a war. only one americans been killed so its hardly a big problem now

I am curious where you got that quote rachmoninov... not to put you on the spot if you just made it up, but I was wondering who said that and in what context...
And since our western culture is far superior to the afghans "goat polo" playing, apathetic, almost primative "culture", it should be forced upon them.
