It's become obvious that Muslims simply can't be trusted as partners. It's time to get out of Afghanistan and let these stoneaged savages go back to playing ball with their goat heads. We should never have tried to help build any kind of civilization there. We should have bombed the shit out of the place and let them know if there was another attack on the U.S. launched from there, that we'd be back. There is no way we should continue to ask our soldiers to work side by side with Muslims that they can't turn their backs on. If your religion condones lying when it suits your needs, then you just can't be trusted period.

Afghanistans Soldiers Step Up Killings of Allied Forces
KABUL, Afghanistan American and other coalition forces here are being killed in increasing numbers by the very Afghan soldiers they fight alongside and train, in attacks motivated by deep-seated animosity between the supposedly allied forces, according to American and Afghan officers and a classified coalition report.
Lethal altercations are clearly not rare or isolated; they reflect a rapidly growing systemic homicide threat (a magnitude of which may be unprecedented between allies in modern military history), it said. Official NATO pronouncements to the contrary seem disingenuous, if not profoundly intellectually dishonest, said the report, and it played down the role of Taliban infiltrators in the killings.
The coalition refused to comment on the classified report. But incidents in the recent past where Afghan soldiers have wounded or killed I.S.A.F. members are isolated cases and are not occurring on a routine basis, said Lt. Col. Jimmie E. Cummings Jr. of the Army, a spokesman for the American-led International Security Assistance Force. We train and are partnered with Afghan personnel every day and we are not seeing any issues or concerns with our relationships.
The numbers appear to tell a different story. Although NATO does not release a complete tally of its forces deaths at the hands of Afghan soldiers and the police, the classified report and coalition news releases indicate that Afghan forces have attacked American and allied service members nearly three dozen times since 2007.
