All hell is going to break loose.

This is what happens when people deny reality and try to define WAR as something it is not. Changing a definition does not change reality. Innocent people die in war. Pretending otherwise only prolongs it.

Does anyone really think that we would have been attacked, with all we have in our arsenal, if our enemies believed that we defined war as war?

Libs are having an orgasm over this.

I wonder if the individual is a muslim.

As expected, I’ve read reports of purported eyewitnesses who say they saw a group of drunk and laughing Americans.

I heard Harry “The War Is Lost” Reid use the plural when referring to the alleged shooter. I tried to find his quote online, but the word (”soldiers,” I believe) has been replaced with an editorial singular “service member.”

[Nextrush]

Since World War II the United States has been fighting “wars” that are “police actions” to maintain order.

Phrases like the “New World Order” have been used by leaders like Bush 41 to describe it.

Rumsfeld himself said the “war” after September 11th is not like the ones fought in the past.

The war in Afghanistan is what conservatives I listened to as a child in the 1970’s called a “no-win war.”

Vietnam was such a war with “rules of engangement” to prevent a conventional military victory like World War II.

Afghanistan is a higher-tech, lower casualty version of Vietnam.

"...most of whom are peaceful."

Sharia law is peaceful? Most Muslim's desire this calling of an oppressive political/religious system. Does God want His children living in chains? Tell me, why do you support oppression? Islam is peaceful, LOL!!!

God's children hear His voice, not satan's and lucifer is in every ear of a devote Muslim.

Also what stereotypes? Pick up a history book, read their "abomination" of a so-called holy book, look at their prophet's deeds, go to "moderate along with peaceful" Saudi Arabia with Cross on and Bible in hand and see what happens, peaceful my behind.

And yet now we have these liberal people pushing us to get fight in Africa to get this Kony guy.

[Can someone tell me why we’re there?]

Just Bidness?

"Afghanistan still world's top opium supplier, despite 10 years of US-led war

Despite increased eradication efforts in Afghanistan, opium cultivation rose by 7 percent in 2011 as compared to last year, according to a new United Nations report. Production is up 61 percent."

Noting to see there. Mooove along.

I had an Iranian room-mate for a few months while in college in the 70s. He was one of the nicest guys you could meet. And he hated and feared BOTH the Ayatollah & the Shah. He said both only wanted personal power, and both were evil men. He wanted to stay in America, because America has religious freedom. He told me I didn’t know how good I had it, as a Baptist, to be free to worship the way I believed.

However, you wouldn’t find many of that opinion in rural Afghanistan. It is a place where men are willing to die for the right to kill their women - wives and daughters - if they feel like it. There are pockets of extreme evil. And having spent 6 months in Afghanistan, I can now understand those passages in the Bible where God commanded the Jews to kill everyone...

[brityank]

I refuse the article pending hard facts from a source independent of the administration that’s not full blown socialist.

Michael Yon on Twitter usually has good info from his many contacts in country; he posts both on Twitter and on his Facebook logs as well as his own website. He's concerned.

[Dengar01]

I'm drowsy from insomnia but I think we need a LOT more facts before jumping to conclusions on this one.

A) If true, Major PR Crisis putting troops including friends of mine in that hell hole country in the Marines at risk.

B) Another Obama Apology Tour, maybe with Sandra Fluke as his opening act.

C) If this guy did go nuts and shot a bunch of people for no reason, he should face the same consequences as any other war criminal.

D) I know a lot of folks here are heated but by making disgusting comments you embarrass everyone who calls this site home. Thank you mods for deleting lunatic comments!

Opinion polls in Egypt and elsewhere has shown 80% support for stoning adulterous women and killing those who convert to Christianity.

That is the real face of islam. The vast majority of muslims are not peaceful in any real way. Thety just refrain from fighting now that they can’t win. Once that changes... Welll, just see how they treat non-muslims anywhere they rule.

The peaceful majority is nothing but fantasy.

[rollo tomasi]

I once thought like you, BTW, until my immediate family members started to come in contact with this “system” and those who worship the abomination.

My wife is currently under the evil stares of the Afghan Nationals at this very moment and would strenuously object to your description.

“We are making Afghanistan safe for “Bacha Bazi”, which the Taliban opposed, instead of just leaving after the training camps were wiped out. http://www.examiner.com/law-enforcement-in-national/afghan-pedophilia-a-way-of-life-say-u-s-soldiers-and-journalists";
*********************************************************
Any of you folks still wonder why Obama and his “friend” went to Pakistan and environs? Remember, the Democrats/Progressives considered that Afghanistan was THE GOOD WAR. Barack probably still has fantasies about his “butt-boy” days.

Students in high school are said to be behind the Kony video that came out this week.

There’s a lot of moralistic indocrination going on in schools about anything and everything from climate change to multiculturalism etc. etc.

“Caring about the world” becomes more important than any notions of caring about one’s own country.

[DBrow]

I wonder what his name was.

[dfwgator]

This Kony thing comes across more like the Emmanuel Goldstein “Two Minutes of Hate” in 1984.

[RaceBannon]

Some have said it earlier, I will say it in my words

When ONE American says something, Muslims kill each other and threaten to kill ALL Americans because of the action and WORDS of ONE American.

We are told we MUST try to understand the rage and how WE caused the bad wwords or actions.

When will someone tell MUSLIMS that THEIR words and actions cause this and that THEY must consider what their words or actions were that caused these events?

[BuckeyeTexan]

Yes. We should have engaged in total war from the very beginning.

[Nextrush]

Students would tend to use “drama” like they do with their digital devices to get attention and force others to join in the fray.
