On Tuesday President Barack Obama will announce his decision on whether to send thousands more troops to Afghanistan. Corporal Jake Diliberto of the group Veterans for Rethinking Afghanistan shared his views with RT.
What a shame that war lord Obama gets the Nobel Peace Prize and the million dollars that goes with it. Millions of peace and anti-war activists around the world deserve it much more. The world reeks with injustice.
How many troops he sends will depend upon his recent visit to China - did he get the Chinese to 'loan' the US a few more billion dollars (to add to the Trillion already 'loaned')?
War is hell and war is evil, but war's outcome is seldom predictable. There are always too many unintended consequences of war to predict much of anything except death and destruction on both sides.
"Historical experience is that war is not controllable" - but the core of the problem is that unexperienced cast is considering it man-ageable.
