War is hell. Innocent people are killed in an unjust and in a just war. In WWII, innocent people were killed by the millions. Does this mean that the Allies shouldn't have attacked Hitler to stop his conquest of Europe and (indirectly) his massacre of those he deemed unworthy of living?
The war is justified, but its execution is not. This is why we need new leadership and tactics and Afghanistan, and this is what Obama offers as Commander-In-Chief.

You don't hear about the innocent civilians killed by US bombs and bullets this is why the Afghanistan war seems legitimate to you. Did you know that eversince the Taliban was taken out of power the poppy fields which were under control by them are now flourishing and heroin exports to Western cities has shot up big time. You cannot fight terror with terror, not in Vietnam, not in Iraq, not in Afghanistan. Don't believe the government, they will always lie, always.

blame the media. The United States has the masses by the TV remote. Anything they say, the masses will believe.

And your source of information is a wide survey of the Afghan people?? Please direct me to this unbiased unfabricated fountain of free information.
Stop watching CNN man.

I'll get you reports if you like.
Might I ask, what are your reports for Afghanistan people "wanting" the US to wage war on their country to remove the Taliban?
