Commanders Expect A 'Significant' U.S. Presence In Afghanistan For 8 To 10 More Years: Dem Rep

Thursday, March 10, 2011


I know that the Taliban consistent­ly refused to hand over bin Laden to the U.S. for trial. They offered two alternativ­es. First, the Taliban said that, if the U.S. gave evidence the Taliban decided was convincing­, then the Taliban would let their Islamic courts in Afghanista­n try bin Laden. After the U.S. started bombing al Qaeda in Afghanista­n, the Taliban said that if the U.S. stopped bombing, and gave the Taliban convincing evidence, then the Taliban would be ready to hand bin Laden over to some neutral 3rd party country, as long as it was a country that would never "come under pressure from the United States".

Not exactly true.

We'll probably never know the precise facts, but bombing a sovereign nation to get one resident and a handful of his lieutenant­s is not the act of a great nation or a great people.

Would the US government b/omb England to get Julian Assange?  

Would American citizens think it a rational act if Iran had b/ombed the US because we gave safe harbor to the Shah and refused to hand him over?

How about the Marcos's?
