there will be a lot of fall out and maybe a ruined career or two before this

the middle east Bill. they were jubilant in Tehran, Damascus, Riyard and

Sounds like the military needs to re-think and re-build then. I doubt that
this incident is going to enhance recruitment efforts.

Ya think????
Like I said, I feel sorry for Obama who has inherited this mess and has to
make some decisions which, of course, will not be popular with many, no

I think the past experience of other countries that have tried to make
Afghanistan over tells us one thing: get out. Maybe play a game of
just having troops in the cities where they can bolster the economy,
but clear out of the hinterland. This isn't 19th Century America where
you put all the bad guys on reservations.

Indeed. But, beyond that, he has to address the burning issue of troop
burnout at a time when more is being asked of the Armed Forces. *They* are

computer screens discussing what "should" and "should not" be done while we
get our war experience from newspapers and TV.

I read an account of those who were killed. Five were in the medical
or psychiatric fields. Physicians assistant, Pschiatric nurse, Nurse
practicioner, Physician's assistant, one of the wounded was a Mental

There is a universal tenet in the medical/mental health world. If a person
is engaging in unprofessional conduct, and at the very least an
investigation is not performed, then the powers-that-be are negligent. Do
you think these young men and women would have willingly accepted the help
of an anti-American (Muslim) shrink who advocated beheading of infidels? DO

What horse manure! Perhaps you'd care to explain to us just why
"Obama has a hard job" is relevant to a nutball losing it at Fort
Hood?
