Blame corrupted former president Karzai, because Karzai was only interesting in money and he never try to do good for nation. Karzai never intend to defeat Taliban. He took money from Iranian Government too and never has recorded for spending of that Iranian Government's money.

Karzai will blame US and alliance force for Taliban increase popular in some parts of Afghanistan and dead of civilians to hide his incompetent and corrupted nature. Now Karzai family is multimillionaire and he does not need US anymore. Also US Government is tightening on spending money of US assistance.

Karzai wants US out of Afghanistan because he wants to see Afghan wreck rather than becoming peaceful nation under new Government. Karzai has worrying of he will be tried for corruption in Afghan one day. Karzai should be tried for corruption once country was stable.

New Government does not want US and alliance out of Afghanistan because the Government will be finished if US and Alliance are completely withdrew from Afghan. Karzai will leave Afghanistan and move to Dubai where his stolen money was hidden.

If new President Ashraf Ghani wanted to see stable Afghanistan and then he needs to crack down corruption and get Afghan peoples trust first and recruit more soldiers for Afghan Army.

@wildwest Russia got crushed. The Afghan war is going well now. These attacks happen F all and the % of deaths and attacks must be 97% down., from 4 years ago. Looks like they need some kind of early warning system put in place.

It would be good if we could trust the Afghan army and so on. We could give them heat and sound weapons to stop them coming into a place like that. If they had heat weapons around that place, the Taliban couldn't push forward. Heat weapons get people in cars 2.

What I would do is give them lots of the gas that burns white hot. They can use it once they see them coming, and leave a small space open to force them to squeeze through a small gap, there for 20 people can take on 100 people. They are forced to come in in the 10s or 20s.... 100 people will not fit. That will give Air support time and the troops time to get there, + 20 guys can match 100 people coming at them, because 100 people cant night fight.

Its like having 100k people v 500k people. You need to force them through a small area "that makes it even" or your advantage. Numbers can fit so the amount that can fit with see number all across once they get in from that small area. .

Dang Scott, sounds like you should be advising Mr. Obama and all of these others in Washington DC! But trusting the Afghan army I think is as useful as when the USA tried to trust the SOUTH VIETNAMESE army and look how that ended up!

Enough of these sub-humans. Even animals aren't as brutal as this group. They are like no other life form on Earth. More and more the world is getting fed up with their evil ways. Even the kumbaya crowd.

The world is a messy place with all these criminal scumbags. Wake up and deal with them as it is by stopping the political correct nonsense, appeasement policy, and ignorant of their doctrines. It must be a dream since the world is so addicted to oil from M.E., and all politicians kumbaya with the word "peace" while bloods are dripping. Thanks to Obama and the bots.

LOL, yeah that would be good, wouldn´t it. But you can´t and you never will. So you want to give weapons to who, exactly?

Honestly, you sound as if you try to channel Mc Caine. Bomb this, bomb that, bomb everything, send in the armee, give em weapons.... as if you can defeat an ideology with bullet and bombs.

This ridicuouls ideas has been blowing in your face time and again, and you STILL believe that??

@WilliB hahah hahaha Yay my "Ridiculous "ideas" are dumb. hahah you have know idea little boy.

You mean like making a constitution that has a freeze for 30 years and makes 2 terms max....... is dumb?. So your saying doing that, making power shift for 1 month if a walk out happens to the parts against the government is dumb? Along with rotating gens from Shiite to Sunni and Kurds will fail?.....Along with making it law the Iraq, FBI can't be shut down, but all evidence will be put forward to a court, then the 2 other party's have the power to see the evidence.......... And can vote to have him kicked out :"even" if the court drops it? You're a joke as that would 100% stop any takeover and 100%why this happened in Iraq.

Your so smart? why did this happen in Iraq for???? why?? Darrrrr OMG WilliB lmao

Hay what do i still believe? what comment what all i have said is wrong??

0 ( +1 / -1 )

I think Scott here has some very good comments and WillieB does not agree about bombing this and that but, the first part of a war like this is SHOCK and AWE, right?? Not that Al Qaeda etc..is not ready for the shock and awe stuff, but sure not only bombing will help control ISIS but it is a start and time is NOT on our sides.

Elbuda:

Scott think s that imposing a constitution on people who don´t want it is a "solution". If that makes sense for you, wait and see.

@WilliB i do think.....I know.

The only reason why Iraq war failed, was because of their constitution that let the Shiites cling to power. A system that lets a corrupt Sunni judge change there constitution 2 term too 3+ terms let al Blar Blar Blar cling to power. They were all busted "the Shiite government" and when they got busted, they closed down the FBI. Iraqis FBI corruption body was just closed down. They replaced all Kurd's and Sunni gens, with Shiite gens. It was a massive take over of power, and 100% why this is ISIS is happening right now "in Iraqi" and for letting them grow now.

The Shiites did everything within the constitution, but there constitution needs to be made in a corrupt country, That goes both ways. This is why a new constitution must be made,, and it swing power for 1 month if both of the other parts walk out in protest for longer then 1 month. It gives the Shiite Government 1 month to come to an agreement, or power is shifted to 1 of the other 2 party's... For 1 month. In that 1 month they can undo any bad or clinging things, they had done, why in power in government. Power swings back to the voted in party in Gov 2 month after......and they have a further 3 months to fix any problems, before another walk out of both party's forces a swing of power to the other party now. This forces them all to do what they all want. They need to half please each other now, or power shifts. The winning party will always have longer period of power "but" it will swing giving the other party's full government power, to undo any bad things / small loopholes they have done, within the constitution".

In the long run that would be like the western governments, saying and doing what the public wants.... To get voted in. Instead, they have to please each other, or power will shift back and forward in 2 parts walk out for a month. So at the end of they day they will be forced to get along and do the right things. 30 - 50 year freeze should have set them all into a democracy after doing and agreeing on things, over such a long time. It's a must constitution, and a must "Iraq, FBI" can't be closed down to. 2 party's can vote to have him replaced "head of the FBI". Well, if you look at the comments in the past, its says most of it, to stop a takeover.

It's 100% clear...... America won the battle and won the war at the time the Shiite Gov wanted to force them out. 0 American troops dead each week/months, and Iraq troop or checkpoint police attacks, were becoming less and less. The American FBI set up Intel, was kicking in hard, and after the raids flushed them out of the city's. The raids took place in the countryside "so much so" the raids, then took place out in the dessert. The Intel crushed them and America told them....Troops leave so does America set up Intel. Shiite needed mass America troops out to take over. What is happening now is "100% the fault" of the Shiite government, that deliberately forced American troops out, to do what they did right after they left... cling to power replace gens with all Shiite and the rest of corrupt stuff..

Now corruption can not take place, and the Army Gen is fired on the spot, if he try's to make a minority of troops in each division. The Constitution states........ Must be = numbered & rotated. The constitution states the troops must obey by it over any gen orders. Clearly, if its = mix, there will be know overrun of the government. That stops what al Blar Blair did. Replaced all high up gen with Shiite, and all top army men where Shiite. The gen or anyone is fired on the spot, if he try's to make a minority or troops in each division. The Constitution states........ Must be = numbered & rotated. The constitution states the troops must obey by it over any orders. Clearly, if its = mix, there will be know overrun of the government.

War over corruption gone. Please do say how not????

@Elbuda Mexicano We have to bomb them, not doing anything will only make this get worse. They will promote them self's and get more followers and members. If we crush them, there know army of men to follow "there dead" and taken out.......Weak ISIS.
