Victory at the Cost of Sanity in Obama?s Forever War

clipped by: disenchantedcitizen
clippers remarks: The tired old mentality of the U.S. military, actually any military, is ?There is no alternative to victory.? What is considered victory, the complete subjugation of the enemy?

What would be considered a victory for the U.S. in Afghanistan? If we think we are going to eradicate terrorism and hatred towards the U.S. then we are sadly mistaken.

Victory comes in many different forms.

At this point in time I would consider it a victory to get our troops home without any further loss of life, our troops as well as civilians at the hands of America?s war machine, accidental though they may be.

It really doesn?t matter who rules Afghanistan or Iraq after we leave, assuming there are plans to ever leave.

We need to get back home and divert some of the obscene amount of money being thrown at the pentagon and put it towards domestic purposes, like schools and healthcare.

We can defend our borders just fine from within our borders.

a Brookings Institution discussion

seems clear confirmation that Barack Obama and his chosen advisers have wasted no time in placing themselves and the country?in a mere five months?into the same desperate situation that it took the combined Johnson and Nixon administrations 15 years to arrive at in the case of Vietnam.

the speakers? shared views:

1. ?Significant escalation? is essential ?to avoid utter defeat.?

2. If ?tens of thousands? of new troops were sent to Afghanistan, it would be impossible to know whether this reinforcement changed anything until another 18 months had elapsed.

3. Even if the U.S. ?turns the tide,? no ?significant drawdown? of American troops could occur for at least another five years.

Why is there no alternative to American victory in what the president calls ?AfPak??


Please, President Obama:

Don?t kill tens, or hundreds, of thousands more people in still another search for a useless American victory that ends in defeat, and ruins your presidency.
