Tora Bora: What Really Happened?
Along with Seymour Hersh, Peter Bergin is one of the better experts in Afghanistan on both the region and the conflict. Especially, the battle of Tora Bora, where the administration let Osama bin Laden get away. Remember, it was an angry, frustrated U.S. Special Forces who blew the whistle on this horrific screw-up, not John Kerry. He's just keeping the story from gathering dust.0 comments
Bergen explains it here:
Tora Bora—What Really Happened?
And this article shows the British Special Forces' angry response to being hobbled at Tora Bora.
Yeah. Support those troops!
Remember, George W. Bush is the same U.S. Marshall who hollered, "Wanted: Dead or Alive!" Then, first he couldn't, then wouldn't and basically didn't, go after the biggest, meanest, most murderous hobre on the planet. Couldn't be bothered, he later said.
So, because of this, this madman is alive, back in play and happily roaming free to kill again whenever it suits him.
"Turn in your badge, Marshall!"
We need a new Marshall, in order to fight / capture / kill Osama Bin Laden, since the last one failed so badly.
Period.
We need to fire George W. Bush and hire a new Marshall: John F. Kerry!
Let someone strong, a gunslinger who knows what it's like to be shot at, run the show. The posse on site would appreciate it, I'm sure.
