Simply Government Propaganda. We all know Afghanistan is a losing proposition, cause the same press has told us this since they ran out of stories of losing in Iraq.

That's good news.

Can we bring the troops home, now?

Idiotic comment there, but to be expected from people like you.

Link to one major media outlet that states that Afghanistan is a losing proposition.

All of the liberal outlets, CNN, NBC, ABC, and CBS, all state that the attacks on our troops in Afghanistan is escalating and that moving Soldiers from Iraq to Afghanistan is one way to counter the growing insurgency. The Pentagon acknowledges this and I agree wholeheartedly with it.

But by all means put up a link showing that the press has stated that Afghanistan is a losing proposition.

No. More troops are needed in Afghanistan. They should have had an overwhelming force there to begin with.

Go fuck yourself, lad.

I've been here for over a month and you have yet to write anything which shows you to be anything but an opinionate blowhard lacking facts, judgement or critical thinking skills.

Okay....what's the mission?

How do we know when its completed?

What indicators will we have that we are making progress?
