Obama regrets civilian deaths in Afghanistan: Kabul
US President Barack Obama expressed “deep regret” to President Hamid Karzai over recent civilian deaths in military operations in Afghanistan during a call, Karzai’s office said Thursday.
I know Political Spin Doctors figure this out years in advance… So they must have calculated the number of men and women killed in Afghanistan to make Obama seem tough and Worldly ie Electable
Every one from Gates down is saying the time table is not the call it quits day but an ambiguous variable day in which to review how much longer we should be in Afghanistan.
Is it not a little out of order considering Muslims killed 3000 Americans on 9/11, over 4000 soldiers in Iraq, 800 in Afghanistan, and Hussein Obama is making overtures to Muslims…
When MacArthur and Truman had their confrontation it was MacArthur’s arrogance but this time Obama is at fault not the Gen. Using Gates and the media to put down McChrystal is wrong. We need to win not waste lives in Afghanistan. They picked the guy so they should support him.
I heard last week that Obama was finally going to announce on Friday the 30th of October his decision about whether or not he would send more troops to Afghanistan. What was the verdict with that? Any articles about it?
Thanks.
/sigh. Obama should listen to military officials who know what they’re talking about!
Morning news headlines today (Mar. 28) tell us that President Obama is now sending more troops into Pakistan and Afghanistan. He is sounding like Pres. Bush these days, saying we have to wipe out those danger spots. I just happen to agree with him, but I am wondering how many disullusioned Democrats are there out in the populace. How about you?
Biden indicated that the commanding general in Afghanistan wants a doubled force, and Biden strongly advocated for it. What plan does Obama have to DOUBLE our troop presence, and also fight Iran and Pakistan simultaneously while dealing with a massive deficit?
