“Afghan President Hamid Karzai is expected to issue an order Tuesday demanding that all private security companies in Afghanistan cease operation within four months.”
Now this could get interesting. Are we, as a nation, there to support a sovereign nation, or are the politicians just trying to make a buck for their friends at the expense of the American tax payer and the Afghan people?
I just want to have in depth discussions of politics, religion, and sex--you know, all those things "they" say you shouldn't talk about in "polite" society. I'll be expressing opinions here. If you have a problem with that, feel free to move on. If I claim something, I try to back it up with facts. If you want to contest those facts, feel free.
If you have any comments, questions, or suggestion please feel free to drop me a message.
If you want to join in the discussion leave a comment, start a blog, or you can can follow me on Facebook, Twitter, Google Reader, Buzz, YouTube, or Flickr.
