Yorick, as both Fjlotsdale and I acknowledged above, we both know conditions in Afghanistan were poor before our military started on its way. Perhaps you should read our posts again, particulary Fjlotsdale's point regarding how much worse those already poor conditions make our military intervention.
Yorick, don't you dare pretend to be hurt by Fjlotsdale's words when you are advocating the killing of more innocent life! Has the death of 6,000 people so suddenly hardened you that the deaths of more don't matter much?
Don't you dare to pretend to take the moral high ground over Fjlotsdale here! She doesn't want more innocent death any more than you do, and yet is wise enough to know that should start right this friggin moment, not wait until after we have had our vengeance!!!!!
Are the innocent Afghani's the same as the houseowners in your example!! Noooo!!!!!! So stop pretending that what you are advocating will cause anything other than the loss of INNOCENT life. You claim to be wanting to save innocent life in the future. As a technique, you are willing to look the other way while our military prepares to take innocent life. What is the principle we are trying to establish here, Yorick?

Innocents don't stand by and let people kill others Diogenes. It is quite likely that the strongest allies of the Coalition will be Afgahnis. Certainly they have made gains already in a couple of northern provinces. As I said. The "innocents" will let the police do their job. Those that hinder are no different from those that destroyed 7,000 (not 6,000 as you mentioned) lives. Current from this mornings statistics.
Also I do not believe either of you are up to speed on the situation in Afgahnistan. I gained that perspective
from reading your post Dio.
