Code Pink: revitalized, reenergized and retarded as ever before!
Are you people on dope?
Tell the Administration that we want:
1) Reduction of troop levels in Afghanistan
2) Rapid withdrawal of all U.S. troops from Afghanistan and Iraq
3) A commitment to diplomacy involving all major regional players, including major international peace-keeping bodies
4) Addressing the real needs of Afghans by funding development assistance for Afghanistan’s basic human needs – health-care, clean water, education, security, rights for women and girls-, through Afghan NGOs, using local labor and services
Just how in the hell do you think you can get #4 when you’ve done 1-3 Medea?
No US troops:
= no rights for women and girls
= no security
= limited (if any) educational opportunities, and death sentence for women trying to get them
= less clean water
= only the most barbaric health care service imaginable.
Get a brain Moran.
I think what I love best is the idea of NGOs providing security. We call those vigilantes Medea. Should we be sending over BA Barracus and Hannibal Smith to protect them?
“In 1972 a crack commando unit was sent to prison by a military court for a crime they didn’t commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Kabul underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire: THE A-TEAM.”

‘through Afghan NGOs, using local labor and services’
Isn’t that what we did in Iraq with the Sons of Iraq? Funny who the loony left calls that buying off the locals, yet want the same thing to be done in Afghanistan but without US troop support.
I wonder if they would be willing to go over there to to help without any US military support. Bet you 20 bucks that I will be there before they will, if they even go at all.
…so when can we expect the left to start calling for the impeachment of the Teleprompter-in-Chief over war crimes? I’m jus’ sayin’.
I wonder about all those people that oppose Iraq but not Afghanistan? Are they going to have another change of heart now too?
TSO:
Using the “never-again-to-be-early” Mr. Hand (aka Ray Walston aka Boothby) is a nice touch…
I demand a reduction in Code Pink members in DC.
I demand Medea Benjamin stand trial for materially aiding this country’s enemies and causing US Troop casulties.
Should we be sending over BA Barracus and Hannibal Smith to protect them?… I guess so, Benjamin is clearly Howling Mad…
I just don’t get what horrible thing must’ve happened to Medea to have her end up like this. I’ve met her. She’s not bad looking and certainly could speak well. But she’s certifiable, for sure. To be such a screeching harpy, a one-trick political pony, when with her energy and skills she might have been a force for good in the community.
Instead, she’s another Berkely howler monkey, a media junkie who will do anything, it seems, for another TV fix.
I’m glad you bring up the A-TEAM idea I have been looking for them for the past five years to help out over there but all I find is some dick and his talking car that could e of no help in the Stan. If anyone finds them or has a friend thats in trouble with some almost violent gang but really just vandals let me know. Mabe Hitchens will find them. Keep an eye out for Macgyver too.
AW1 Tim,
Daddy has big money. I think he was a Long Island or manahttan real estate developer.
Her real name is Suzie…
So, by their logic, WTF was I doing in Afghanistan in 2004-2005? I mean, thats what Civil Affairs DOES for crying out loud! We do the gruntwork with GO’s and NGO’s in reconstruction and nationbuilding, I concur with Mr. Hand, these skells must have toked out on a bad stash
