Admiral Chester Nimitz had a rule: every dog gets two bites. If he hadn't had this rule, both Halsey and Spruance would have been fired for blunders in 1942. But he had it and it paid off. This General had seven bites and he didn't learn. It's time for him to go write his book.

What frightens me the most is they all hate the US and the words they use come directly from bin Laden.
The Jordanian MD who bombed the CIA outpost in Afghanistan did it to avenge the killing of his Taliban leader--I assume it was in battle--and it was a very well planned bombing.

One thing, Aint, the longer we stay in Afghanistan, the more we provide the Taliban with money. Their funding doesn't come just from the opium trade; it also comes from the markets where the Military shops, the transport needed, the protection the transport need. Think about anything the Military n
