Comments on: Afghan Refugees get relief, thanks to you http://rethinkafghanistan.com/blog/2009/10/afghan-refugees-get-relief-thanks-to-you/ Rethinking our policy toward Afghanistan requires vigorous public debate and Congressional oversight. Every major war or military action since World War II has come under the microscope of Congressional oversight hearings Fri, 10 Sep 2010 06:39:28 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: marlene aragon http://rethinkafghanistan.com/blog/2009/10/afghan-refugees-get-relief-thanks-to-you/comment-page-1/#comment-1761 marlene aragon Tue, 02 Feb 2010 00:17:04 +0000 http://rethinkafghanistan.com/blog/?p=889#comment-1761 Again I see a video of unspeakable suffering that we, the US has had a mighty hand in.

We pay taxes and we have a right to voice our disgust. I voted for you, President Obama--mainly because I thought you would get us out of there! DO IT! Again I see a video of unspeakable suffering that we, the US has had a mighty hand in. Our bombs and bullets have caused even more suffering than the horrible Taliban . .it appears.

We must stop fighting in Afghanistan, and we lose more of our youth daily!!! STOP!!! We pay taxes and we have a right to voice our disgust. I voted for you, President Obama–mainly because I thought you would get us out of there! DO IT!

The only really big industry that actually produces something tangible that the US has left is the war industry. So, to keep that industry alive, we need to go to war. That is why the US is ALWAYS at war and what Eisenhower was talking about in the speech he made about the "industrial war complex" when he left office. If we pull out of Iraq and Afghanistan, it will mean thousands of lost jobs at home as we will no longer be buying weaponry for war. And right now, the US economy can't stand to loose more jobs. It is a no win situation for Obama. Hanscramer's second question: Unfortunately, the US is in a quandry.

Bush Senior was the one who headed that operation up, though that piece of information wasn't made public until after he lost re-election in 92 to Clinton. There have been rumors and allegations of the CIA being involved in several other type of drug trafficking, though none are conclusively proven. It has come out that Karzai's brother is the main drug cartel leader in Afghanistan, and it has also come out he is on the CIA payroll. Maybe you are right about the pharmaceutical companies wanting the US in Afghanistan so they can get their hands on the poppies, but given the CIA's drug trafficking history, I would guess it is the CIA that is taking the lion's share of the poppies.
