Illiterate, boy-humping HEROIN growers.

A SINGLE American fingernail broken..?

STILL not worth it, to say nothing of a death.

Afghanistan is an INVENTION, none of them believe in that country, they believe in their TRIBES.


EVERY WORD TRUE!
WELL SAID!

That man was four years old when the war started.

I have said for YEARS that not one more American is worth their life in that shite-hole. It’s a travesty. The letter to the parents is an insult.

So is Canada going to pay the scum who killed this honorable man millions like they just did to another jihadist?

END IT NOW!

Our government is throwing American lives away.

And when we finally do leave Afghanistan it will all be for naught.

There is no hope for any muslim country.

Then your life was easy.
I joined the Marine Corps when I was seventeen.
I stayed in until the Soviet collapse.

All of those years were much better than my childhood. Bootcamp and combat included.

Many who serve come from backgrounds where the spartan military life doesn’t seem like a terrible sacrifice.

In the S2 section of my first battalion out in the fleet we had a guy with a scarred back who had been whipped by the Turks, and there were several men in the unit who had escaped communist countries as children. None of us were kids. Some of us had little memory of ever having been kids.

We understood clearly what we were fighting to preserve and why.

OH, I am so sad. Heartfelt prayers for the Kirkpatrick family.
We’ve been trying to civilize these people for more than 15 years and they don’t want to be civilized. I say just drop a good sized bomb on an area that will turn their sand into glass. Also drop something similar on their opium fields.
My war was Korea in the ‘50s. Until you’ve walked in a soldiers shoes there is no way to understand what it’s like to be in their situation.

He’s just a kid!! :(

Sad. Really sad. I'm from Wasilla and I was 51 when I went to Afghanistan. Had I not made it back, at least I had the chance to live a full life. This kid never will.
