Afghanistan is to prevent the al qaeda or any organization like that has aspirations against the united states to be able to get a foothold in afghanistan to be able to do that. for 20 years we prevented that from happening. also our small footprint we had and listening cia outpost that we had also prevented the taliban from taking over. so those two things were being accomplished. what we got right now is a very serious situation on our hands because its fairly obvious the american people get t...

Impossible to almost impossible for terrorist groups to actually create a system where they could attack the west and especially the united states. now the other thing that we have to look at in this case, rosemary, is when we have a situation like this, the real difficulty that you end up having is could you actually do something in a way that would prevent that kind of development of terrorist forces in afghanistan from afar. and i think the answer is probably not. i would say that we have a v...
