We lost too many people in Afghanistan and you could also say we needlessly killed a bunch of people over there as well.
The armies of Mohammed transgressed against the western kingdoms on 9/11, so an army of western crusaders volunteered to retaliate a thousand fold in the Islamist's homelands and deliver retribution. And it was done.
That's exactly what all knew we were singing up for. What would you have had us do, just let the mohammedians kill our kind without consequence?
No. We went over there because the alternative - turning the other cheek to filthy jihadist savages - was intolerable to us.
We were right to do it this time, and we were right to do it the previous eight times, and we'll do it again, and again and again whenever those filthy savages forget their place.
THE TALIBAN DID NOT SHUT DOWN OUR COUNTRY AND DESTROY OUR ECONOMY FOR GENERATIONS TO COME. Our own goddamn governments did that to us for their fake COVID scam.
The poppy isn't about Trudeau's policies. If you'd forsake our fallen comrades because you're mad at Trudeau, you're doing politics wrong. Trudeau doesn't deserve a shred of your consideration when you think about whether we should honour our war dead. He's not a part of that equation and he never will be. He's just one sniveling, ungrateful sack of shit out of millions who's freedom we had to shed blood to defend.
Earlier this week our government announces that our military will be participating in launching propaganda campaigns on our own citizens.
The poppy isn't for them either. The poppy and remembrance Day in general aren't about honoring the military, they're about remembering our war dead. It doesn't even matter if you agree with why they were fighting.
Edit: Go back and watch these. They'll make you remember why you went. Because you appear to have forgotten.
I didn't see anything from the hajis that made me think any different about their intentions.
You may not have seen it, but every last one of them wanted you dead. Afghanistan is probably one of the most devoutly Islamic societies in the world. And you were an infidel trespassing in Dar Al Islam.
The alternative could have been irradiating everything from Morocco to Pakistan with nuclear weapons which the USA has at their disposal on 9/12/01.
Not practically feasible I'm afraid. Not without poisoning the rest of the world.
But yes, in future I'd probably recommend a stand-off approach. We tried the humanitarian liberation and nation building approach in good faith, and we learned the lesson that you simply cannot civilize that culture. But we had to try before we learned that lesson. So going forward we should apply a polciy of containment and severe retribution for attacks against the west.
In retrospect it seems as if we may have fought in Afghanistan in order to train our own military and NATO to conduct counter insurgency operations in our own countries, against our own citizens who do not go along with the New World Order.
Let's not get carried away.
If that was a training exercise, why were you told by the moustaches when you got back home to forget everything you learned there, lose the high speed kit, drop the advanced gunfighter drills and revert back to cold-war mode?
I am sorry but I literally cannot watch Canadian politicians wearing the poppy and hanging wreaths for the Dead on the 11th
Yeah, that bugs the shit out of me too, but you just have to remember - it's not about them.
Also take solace in the fact that when that politician pins a poppy on his lapel, and then looks up at your chest and sees the medal(s), he knows he's a pussy.
