    What do we expect, we send our young men and women to a country who wanted us there to fight for them but now just want us out. Not all of the people of Afghanistan are this way but just like any place, the loud radical minority is what we and everyone else sees. They kill our people over there because someone burned a "BOOK". They behead our people because we do not believe what they believe. They have not had "PEACE" in their country for decades and many do not know what peace is. They are a barbaric people who have their own customs and religions and are willing to kill in the name of their belief. Our men and women are there to provide hope to a people who do not know what hope is!

      Afghani tribes have been killing each other for centuries and I see no reason to intervene in their chosen lifestyle.
