		<description>We have to stop playing world cop but I doubt the military industrial complex will ever allow it. Afghanistan seems to love war, it actually appears to be the national past time so why should we interrupt their fun let them slaughter each other, last man standing wins.</description>

		<description>Those of us who lived through the Vietnam War era and watched the number of Killed in Action rise to over 50,000 are terrified this will be another slaughter. &lt;br&gt;Over 50,000 American sons and daughters Died for Johnson&#039;s Tonkin Gulf Lie, for nothing. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We initially sent our troops to Afghanistan for vengeance, as a response to an unprovoked attack on 9-11.  While I believe we should have instead attacked the Saudis (most 9-11 terrorists were Saudi and were funded by Saudis ) the fact is that the Taliban that ruled Afghanistan supported al Qaida and deserved our invasion.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Given that Bush and Cheney pulled troops from Afghanistan for the illegal Invasion of Iraq, based on the WMD Lies to Congress, the responsibility for not capturing or killing Osama rests solely on Bush and Cheney.  But, that result is in the past.  That the Afghan War was poorly fought is not Obama&#039;s or the Democrat&#039;s fault as they were not in power.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Afghanistan is a tribal area.  Calling it a nation is a stretch. We are not going to win anything there or be able to build a stable government.  The Afghan people have already paid a heavy price for supporting the Taliban and al Quaida.  More troops and a continued war will just turn more muslins against us all around the globe.  It is time to &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Declare victory and bring our troops home.&lt;br&gt;Give reconstruction aid to them if you must but bring our soldiers home.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;And Prosecute the Bush-Cheney Conspiracy To Torture. &lt;br&gt;They used Torture to cover up the WMD Lies.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Put yourself out for the Truth.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Get out in the streets in front of your Congressional Representative&#039;s office and raise hell.&lt;br&gt;Start your own &quot;prosecution&quot; protest group.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;KEEP ASKING ALL POLITICIANS AT ALL PUBLIC EVENTS&lt;br&gt;&quot;WHY DO YOU SUPPORT TORTURE?&quot;&lt;br&gt;If they aren&#039;t actively calling for enforcement of our Federal Torture Laws, They DO Support Torture and a dual standard of Justice.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;SIGN THE PETITIONS&lt;br&gt;Demanding prosecution for all those leaders in Bush&#039;s Administration that Conspired to Torture at  ANGRYVOTERS.ORG&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://ANGRYVOTERS.ORG&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://ANGRYVOTERS.ORG&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Only Prosecution Stops Torture, &lt;br&gt;Abuse of Power, our Constitution, &amp; Rule Of Law</description>
