Six More Canadian Soldiers Die

In Afghanistan of course, where else? What the f..k are we doing there? They are never going to make a difference, they are just going to keep dying and we're not making a bit of difference. Whether we are there six months or six years, the moment we leave or NATO leaves, the Taliban will be right back. The people there themselves cannot or will not accept responsibility for their own lives. Just my view, of course.

I fully believe that we ought to help out in parts of the world where we are wanted but when other NATO countries shirk their responsibility and leave the worst fighting for Canada, Britain and the U.S. then no, we need to quit. And the sad part, the Taliban know that we haven't got the stomach for it, they have internet access too and can read every news report. They just love Jack Layton and his NDP buddies. The crying and hand wringing will start momentarily. This is just breaking news so the hand wringing hasn't started yet but by the six o'clock news, watch out.

The six soldiers who died today were meant to come home at the end of this month. My heartfelt condolences to their families.
