the eye for an eye argument is getting old (take a guess how old). if a female marine were to be captured and raped by taliban soldiers, does that mean our marines should retaliate by raping afghan women? a straw-man argument i know, but sadly for some of us the answer seems to be yes.  View

177 tell us what country we occupied to cause 9/11? You have some very twisted comments. As far as our Marines in the video, they will be dealt with. Did the Taliban punish the people who beheaded our troops?  View

Look, long story short. Afghanistan has nothing to do with 911 neither does iraq. The taliban are a group that emerged after we went there. They just defend their people from foreign countries. 90% of the people in afghanistan support the taliban. Osama bin ladin worked for the CIA and went rougue or something. He fled to pakistan and didnt think the U.S would follow but we did. We went there and then 911 happend. The al Qauida group are the actual terrorist not the taliban. These men here are taliban not al qauida. You also cant do something disrespectful or rougue just because your in a war. Comparing 3000 of our civilians and over 5000 troops against over a million babies, children, women, and men just in afghanistan is stupidity. We cant make ourselves more valuable than another person just because they live in a different country. Thats immoral and I dont support either side. Like i said research it, then you can talk because you make yourself look st*pid when you do.  View

Ok people just to let you know the taliban is not a terrorist group like al-qauida. They are a group that defend the afghan people and seek peace in their country. It is true that the afghan leaders are puppets to foreign powers like the U.S and Nato. So if you think they are a bad group you are wrong. The people of afghanistan support this group and wont let them disappear.  View

Ohh yeah Taliban can be trusted , ill be laughing My @ss off when Taliban gets Pakistan to have a big party to host the "peace celebrations" as I am quite certain Taliban will end up killing Pakistani people as soon as they get the publicity they want . Never make friends with a land mine .  View

Rick Womick is right and corky is right. I wish for more Americans to learn about islam! Try Googleing "can Muslims be good Americans?" and educate yourself. There is nothing peaceful about Islam when their oppressive ideology finds an enemy in anyone who is not following teachings of Quran. Even today look what is happening around the world. Christians are being killed and prosecuted everywhere there is majority Islamic population. My people have been oppressed by Islam for 500 years and the only thing they brought with them was a Taliban type of a regime. Islam is a cancer on the world and a plague that must be eradicated. Educate yourself, just google Islam and look at the google images. Look how people live in those regions where Islam is dominant! Open your eyes to killings in Africa where Islamic militants are propagating Islam. Look and question it. Many Muslims in the US have converted to Christianity! You should too if you are true believer in higher power.  View

True, very true, but osama bin ladin belong to the al qauida terrorist group. The taliban have nothing to to with the 911 attacks. So why are we fighting them. Plus all the terrorist come from pakistan thats why osama was killed there. He was there the whole time. By the way the taliban are not terrorist. They Are just protecting their people in afghanistan. What would you do if russia came to the u.s and said we were terrorist because they were attacked by mexican terrorist? This country is keeing secrets. Iraq and afghanistan are inocent counries.  View

I would like to know why US troops are fighting Taliban, when al'qaeda is the primary & alleged target. Also what the heck does iraq have to do with this war on terror anyways, oh yeah I remember, Suddam had WMD's & al'qaeda was his bff. It all makes sense now, God Bless America!  View

I thought tweeter is american. why would the taliban use it?  View

What does the Tea Party have to do with this? Once these guys are release I understand they are going to hike the border between Pakistan and Afghanistan and see how the Taliban will treat them.  View
