We are NOT the USSR. The Afghan war is a small percentage of our GDP. We'll just take increased expenses out of social entitlement spending, I guess.
Which the U.S., with its extreme diversification and idling infrastructure, should weather better than anyone else.
Nuts. Global economy crashes, so do oil prices.
Maybe fighting the wrong enemy?
And you think the ISI manufactured this as well? I don't. And if not, it has no issue in our discussion here.
Any more distractions from the thread topic - Pakistani misgovernance and treachery?
- new year approaches, gotta go - back Sunday.
Hi,
So it takes 10 years and killing two and a half million muslims the u s finds out that the enemy is some where else---. Ain't we the superstars of the 21st century----. Don't hide behind GDP----the expenses are tremendous as well---the highest GDP ain't gonna get you anywhere.
U S has no infra structure left---it has been taken over by the chinese and the indians----yes there is a skeleton left---.
Once the global economy crashes----there will be terrible times ahead for the west----oil prices coming down won't make any difference then----the damage would have been done-----.
Just like in 2008 price hike-----the destruction the hike caused 3 1/4 years ago---the u s ain't even recovered from that devastation----the loss it suffered in 2008----.
The problem is with pakistan---they don't know how to address this issue---they need to learn to talk just like the u s does---in open and in public---. Pakistani general needs to get on the tv and talk about the deception that american millitary has maintained in afg---.
He needs to be concerned that the u s is extremely desperate to get out of afg----and it does not know how it is going to do that---.
Solomon---you may speak strong words and have all the u n sanctions and resolutions in your post----but it won't do anything to the shame that the u s millitary will face when it leaves afg---because they would have been defeated by the poorest of the poorest ragtag militias of the world----not even an army.
How does that sound to be in the books of history----the world super power got defeated by the worlds poorest of the poor in 10 years time----after all there is a GOD that overlooks us----justice maybe late in coming but it does come some times----.
The GOD is not only a rich man's GOD---it is also a poor man's GOD as well---Solomon---sometimes the poor man's GOD wins too----.
So---bottomline----regardless of sanctions or strikes in paklistan---the u s millitary will leave the arena as a loser---and it is a shame----because the american troops did not deserve what their generals got them into----. American troops are dedicated, god fearing, hard working, loyal to the bone, self less, honest, sincere give their lives for the right kind of cause type of troops----and build hospitals, roads, schools.
They are men who have served this lost cause right from day one with out any excuses---they have served under extreme duress and made the country proud but only for the generals to have them fail.
The U S lost the war---the day it let OBL escape at TORA BORA----that day of infamy will forever live in the annals of historyand will come to haunt them forever----.
That intentional escape and this defeat will always go hand in hand---. So---it is okay---you can use all the tough words---but itain't gonna change the results.
The missile issue has nothing to do with pak----but it is interesting that when things start to go bad----there is a ---what do you call that effect---when the blocks start falling over.
