OBAMA SACRIFICES AMERICAN SOLDIERS FOR RIGGED AFGHAN ELECTION AND CAUSE OF ALLAH

Sacrifice

What Are We Fighting For?

Making the World Safe for Islam

Killing GI’S for Karzai

By

Paul L. Williams, Ph.D.

Surprise. Surprise.

President Hamid Karzai has received 54% of the vote in Afghanistan with nearly all ballots tallied, enough to avoid a runoff.

His re-election has been accompanied by “convincing evidence of widespread fraud,” according to a U.N.-backed commission. A recount, observers insist, will produce the same results since the process will be conducted by a host of Karzai appointees.

The crooked election, according to Ronald E. Neumann, a former U.S. ambassador to Afghanistan, will serve to undermine the U.S. mission to free the country from the grips of the Taliban and radical Islam.

The perception of fraud will shorten the length of time that one can expect foreign aid,” Mr. Neumann said. “People will get disgusted. They’ll say, ‘Why do I sacrifice my son for a leadership that cannot rally the country fairly?”

US Soldier Afghanistan

Mr. Neumann appears to be overly optimistic.

Someone please correct me if I’m wrong, but it is my understanding that Obama has added restrictions to the rules of engagement in Afganistan to limit the exposure of civilians to harmful fire or explosive detonation and that this is costing American lives by limiting artillery and gunship support.

Is this true, and if so, why isn’t it public knowledge?

We all knew this was going to happen before the election. It’s not a surprise. Obama is what he is.

I think it was Sec. Gates, although I doubt he acted without direction from the WH...maybe it was the Dancer who did it. Regardless, I’m surprised General McChrystal has not raised holy hell over the sickening ROE.

Obama is merely wasting American lives and greenbacks in support of a corrupt Islamic regime.

Soldiers are trained to fight and kill.....not to do PR and build madrassas for the training of a new generation America-hating Jihadis,

Because the general public doesn’t know it!

I read on FR the other day about how the government is making it harder to sign up for the military....WHY?
Will there suddenly be a shortage of military and he’ll have to reinstate the draft...OR... a shortage of military so it will be easier to put in place his own (UNION) brown shirts?

Obama is sacraficing our soldiers to the enemy. It’s not like he knows anyone over there fighting....all of his friends and family are against the war.

We have a White House full of anti war loons and they are in charge of a war? Does that make sense to anyone?

In the IDF we would not be allowed to say such things.

(But no one can wipe the smiles from our faces!)

Publizing ROE are not always a good thing. 4 brave Marines were slaughtered due to these ROE's, no air cover was given as they were pinned down and out of ammo.
This administration needs to be brought up on criminal charges

It was proclaimed proudly in the largest media organisations....America was watching Idol....and missed it!

Sadly, one was a precious son from this area---27-year-old, married, two small children at home; third tour in Afghanistan. May God comfort and bless his heartbroken family.

He doesn’t know WTF he’s doing, but he is trying. Good thing the military actually know what they are doing.
