SIGAR: U.S. Risks Wasting Billions In Afghan Security Aid Given 'Inadequate Planning'

"I understand that this is a very emotional issue, to which your response illustrate­s, but please explain to me how your response to my comment has any sufficient textual proof to justify the opinion you have created about me."

I have no opinion about you, or know anything about you (as evidenced by my statement, "I don't know how old you are or whether you've ever lost anyone you love to t/errorism­,"), other than you support the same foreign policy and tactics we've been engaged in for decades and keep making the lives of everyone, Americans included, worse.

Isn't that the street definition these days for /nsanity?  Doing the same thing over and over again, expecting different results?

I contend to you that US interests in the region, our policies and tactics have nothing to do with preventing barbarous attacks on innocent people or creating an environmen­t where little girls can go to school and not be exposed to poisonous gas.  If it was we would have gotten Afghan women out of burkas as soon as we invaded and occupied.  

When exactly is enough for you?  We've heard this "Just another 6 months", "Just another $10 billion", "Just another surge" for years.  Bush-Chene­y did the "kick the can down the road" politics, first by intentiona­lly blowing Tora Bora (because if OBL had been vanquished­, what would be the excuse for remaining in Afghanista­n?) and then by rushing us into Iraq, keeping us mired in a never-endi­ng quagmire.  Obama and Petraeus have turned "kick the can" into an art form.

Your naivete \would be adorable if it wasn't so dangerous.
