The renewed violence came as Afghan President Hamid Karzai acknowledged at a news conference that regular payments his government has received from the CIA for more than a decade would continue. Karzai also said that talks on a U.S.-Afghan bilateral security agreement to govern future American military presence in the country had been delayed because of conditions the Afghans were placing on the deal.

Yeah. Too bad he’s evidently too much of a coward to play on American soil in 2013.

Anyone see the mental media ghoul reporters waiting at the airport for the flag draped coffins to arrive and a front page scoop? Rats can commit atrocities without repercussions

Time to bring our good and able men home and stop WASTING them in this horrid place. Time to make it a glass parking lot ...and that goes for the rest of “mecca,” too.

Have a very good friend with a son there ... I just wince at these reports, just wondering if it would be him or not ...it’s HELL for our servicemembers and their families right now.

It needs to END!!
