I Absolutely agree with continuing the mission in Afghanistan. They directly funded and harboured AlQaeda, open enemy of America, and represent an ideological struggle over the very question of what rights a human being is entitled to. So long as these fanatics are willing to fight for their right to oppress, torture, and kill on a level unseen in 95% of other dictatorships, free nations should stand their ground against it.


(And might I just mention my fury over them destroying ancient Buddhist statues and whiping out all remnants of it, and any other faiths in the region).
