Dateline Afghanistan ... Send in the Marines

[zagoshe]

And maybe, just maybe if we kept our forking noses out of all these little pissing contests, wacknuts from these groups would have less of a desire to drive their airplanes into our buildings.......

Point of order ... they were our airplanes. Carry on.

Yes I forgot, our airplanes and we trained their pilots as well.....

Latest story from Afghan. says 7 U.S. soliders killed today.

KABUL - AP (July 6) - Bombs and bullets killed seven American troops on Monday, the deadliest day for U.S. forces in Afghanistan in nearly a year — and a sign that the war being fought in the Taliban heartland of the south and east could now be expanding north.
Separately, Taliban militants claimed on a militant Web site that they were holding an American soldier whom the U.S. military says insurgents might have captured last week. The Taliban statement, however, did not include any proof, such as a picture or the soldier's name.
Four of the deaths Monday came in an attack on a team of U.S. military trainers in the relatively peaceful north, bringing into focus the question of whether the U.S. is committing enough troops to secure a country larger than Iraq in both population and land mass.
