These two headlines were near each other this morning on Air Force Times:

    I would never have imagined in 2001 that we would still be there in 2011.

    Despite all the “Gung Ho” rhetoric, Afghanistan will never be a democracy no matter how long NATO troops are in country.

    It’s a stone-age meat grinder that will never evolve no matter how many boots are put on the ground.

    So the only way of dealing with it is troop withdrawl and establish a policy of stand-off containment through selective strikes utilizing manned and unmanned aircraft.

  • I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit.

    It’s the only way to be sure.

    Well someone had to say it.
