		<description><![CDATA[Get Pashtuns involved in the power sharing military, political and economic so that the support for the Taliban diminishes.  They are over 50% of the population and need to isolated from taliban recruiting.  This should be the number one goal.   Remove the warlords which gave rise to warlordism and civil/ethnic war, thus creating the taliban.  GET RID OF THE WAR CRIMINALS!   Promote democracy and economic aid, primarly security.    ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[No, there definitely will be traces of NATO&#039;s occupation but it&#039;ll be in the form of replenished stocks of guns, bullets and bombs and a bunch of useless projects around the country which the Afghan&#039;s can&#039;t afford to maintain or have the skilled personnel to operate. 
 
Over $300 billion spent on this war and around 2 to 3% of that was actually dispersed as AID and many of the projects it went toward are unsustainable or incomplete because the money was pilfered. 
 
I remember reading an article once about how then dictator of Pakistan Musharraf asked America to approach the Taliban for a  peace deal following the 2001 bombing campaign that drove them out of power but the hot headed warmongers in Washington didn&#039;t want to listen and thought they would win easy like Iraq somehow proved they could do it.  Unfortunately, by not following Musharraf&#039;s pleas the US effectively got themselves stuck in what is fast becoming an endless war. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is around 1 million Pashtuns that support the insurgency, not 40, 000. You give me 160, 000 ISAF and 400, 000 ANSF we would have crushed it in 12 to 18 months. Who cares.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If we would let the Marines and the rest of the military do their job (kill all Taliban) then we could eliminate  the parasites. Since their hands are tied I say get the hell out. Leave that place to the mother lovin rats. 
 
Better yet, lets toss the Obama&#039;s into that sewer hole. He is a muslim and loves the Muslim Brotherhood. I am also sure Michelle would look better in a burqa.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Joe B: You&#039;re right, that the twelve years, lives and limbs lost and billions spent, will have been for nothing. But, that is the way of the Nihilist-in-Chief in the White House. A nihilist, after all, is a person who can turn something into nothing, and call it &quot;progress.&quot; I wish more people would understand the nature of the man who occupies 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Shock. Horror. When NATO forces finally leave, it will be as if the last 12 years never happened. There will not be a trace they were ever there. karzai will flee or be killed, and the Taliban will take over the entire country. All the lives and limbs lost, all the money spent, will be for nothing. Absolutely nothing. ]]></description>
