Why the US will have to negotiate with the Taliban

So what's the big deal about blowing up a stone idol ?

It's their country and their land.

If they don't want a large eye sore like this statue ruining the land scape.

They have every right to demolish it. :cool:

The Pyramids. Indian Burial Grounds. I don't know. Truly. Maybe somethings need to be preserved. True, nothing should be Idolized., but that is a matter of Individual Faith. I think there, we should live by example, not dynamite.
 
I'm betting your friend was not a woman.

I basically saw nothing that I disagreed with.

A muslim woman should not be out of the house alone.

She needs to be escorted by her husband or another male relative when she leaves the home.

That is just the way that it is; and I support it 100% :cool:

Fine. Do you support the Rape and Beating, the Murder of A Muslim Woman, on Public Property without an Escort, in a Western Country, as a Punishment?

What if her Kid was sick or injured and it was an emergency? Are there Any exceptions at all?

Rape, assault, and murder, are crimes here in America.

So of course I do not support those criminal acts.

To answer your question; if there was an emergency I would not hold my wife accountable for breaking the rules and leaving the house unescorted. :cool:
 
Any "negociations" with the Taliban will be worthless, they are going to tell us whatever we want to hear and once we leave they will just go about stoning women and hanging people in soccer stadiums once we withdraw anyways.

Yep. It's all Bullshit.

It's their country and their laws.

We have No business telling them what they should and shouldn't do. :cool:

That may be the case, but I feel sorry for the average Afghans who live there who will have to endure this.
 
Human Right's Abuses are not our concern, right??? Why encourage bad behavior and defend it?

I personally do not see any bad behavior or Human Rights Abuses by the Taliban.

It's basically just Western nations with their, "We know what's best for you" mentality.

Which has been their standard mantra since Columbus discovered the America's and the genocide of American Indians.

Which later was taken up by the British and other European nations throughout Asia and Africa. :doubt:
 
After all these years and the Taliban is still THE major force within Afghanistan. Why is that?

Remember, even inside the old USSR and inside Modern China, still religion has a foothold. The Taliban in Afghanistan is their state church. You can't stomp it out unless you kill everyone.

For once, you speak the truth.


Many Republicans believe (they believe so many odd and strange things) that the Taliban was part of the WTC Terrorist attack because they wouldn't give up al Qaeda. But we now know in their culture, you can't "turn over" an honored guest once you have accepted them into your home. And remember, al Qaeda fought with the Taliban against Soviet Incursion. They were most certainly "honored guests".

Republicans, even if they cared, don't understand this. Remember, John McCain didn't even know the difference between Sunni and Shiite. Add in the Republicans complete lack of understanding in this country of anyone other than a white conservative and you have a recipe for disaster.
You're right, I don't care. I couldn't give two shits what their excuses are for harboring terrorists in their country. You and the Taliban can call them "honored guests" all you want, we'll keep calling them what they are to us - the enemy.


Obama is going to have to cut a deal with the Taliban. There is not a shred of evidence that the Taliban had a hand in 9/11. Considering where all the bombers came from, the US is probably looking in the wrong country.
You mean, other than harboring AQ which plotted the attacks and trained the terrorists.

And if you are in favor of going to war with Saudi Arabia, you and I are in total agreement.


Hopefully, Obama will be re-elected. We need a president who will get this country out of Afghanistan and you know that no Republican will do that. Republicans see foreign wars as highly profitable ways to make lots of money. And we only lose a few poor kids so it's a "Win-Win". Money to people already rich versus the cost of the lives of a few poor kids. Eliminate abortion laws and they can be replaced easily enough.
Why would there be any reason to believe Obama would get us out of Afghanistan? He has stated that our war in Iraq was a distraction from Afghanistan. Not to mention the Dems voted for these wars just as Repubs did. They are "making money" off it just as much as anyone else.


We will be stuck there until after the presidential elections because Republicans will never, ever allow peace between the US and the Taliban. They would say Obama is friends with terrorists and that's the proof.
It is the Taliban who will not allow peace between them and the US. I guess you have forgotten that they are the ones who attacked us. We're never going to have "peace" with Islamists, not as long as they are alive. What political differences Republicans and Democrats have with each other will never change that fact.


Remember, the generals told us Gitmo was a "recruiting tool" for al Qaeda. Republicans say that if you close Gitmo you will have to release terrorists onto the streets and into backyards as if they never heard of "maximum security prisons" before. So sick of this "willful ignorance".
Gitmo is Obama's now and has been since he decided not to shut it down. Take up your grievances with him.


Republicans know this and fought to keep it open even though it threatens the lives of young patriotic American soldiers. They don't care. It's all about getting the black guy out of the WHITE House. If they can't control the country, they will see it destroyed. Like a dog guarding a pile of hay, their natural instinct is to keep others from using it even when they have no use for it.
Again, Obama and the Dem Congress of 2008-2010 had every chance to shut it down if they really wanted to. The truth is they don't give a flying fuck about it, they just used the phoney outrage of idiots like you to get themselves elected.

Come on Sunni thats going too far, saying its their country its their business is one thing but to say they are doing nothing wrong is absurd, the Taliban are not boy scouts here.
 
The way to deal with the middle east is the way Cortez dealt with the natives of Central America. How did a small force of 600 men conquer a continent?

They encouraged wars between the tribes until they killed each other off.

We should have rumor mongers on the ground inciting conflict. Not trying to get intel on where the country is hiding the latest terrorist on the list. Every execution by the taliban is one less potential terrorist. There are hundreds of groups, if they were fighting each other there isn't much for us to do except make sure it doesn't slop over.

Read the news, they are killing each other anyways. There are still suicide bombings in Iraq right now and our Military for the most part is out of that country.

They are killing each other. Just not fast enough. It wouldn't take much to get all those little groups at each other's throats. Then you got a horse race.

Israel's terrorist organization the Mossad currently does this throughout the Middle East.

Anytime there is war, chaos, or conflict in that part of the world.

Just check behind the scenes and you will find Israeli involvement. :doubt:

We love to point fingers.

But we are not boy scouts either. :doubt:
