I'm calling bullshit

As I think back to Oct 07 when air strikes saved a number of soldiers lives during operation rock avalanche (one of them being my son) while on the same day the president of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan made a call to quit airstrikes(http://www.reuters.com/article/featuredCrisis/idUSN25197494). I question the policy to reduce them. If the population was not harboring the insurgents they wouldn't be in the blast area. Instead we will risk our soldiers lives and give the insurgents a safe haven. We need to quit being pussies and fight a war with sufficient troops and equipment to do it. Fuck it's not like the carpet bombing of WWII, as long as the population harbors these guys they are going to get caught in the crossfire and I'm not so sure that saving them should even be an issue as they are collaborating and conspiring with the enemy and deserve what they get. Shit they have their own kids run around with radios informing the Taliban of movements of our soldiers and if they get caught up in something we are to blame. I call bullshit. Instead we will say we are sorry and at fault and fuck us and our troops. I'm getting tired of this shit and can't agree to pulling our troops teeth and still expecting them to chew the meat. No doubt in my mind this General is only following orders or he can go they way of his predecessor http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30685277/. Our troops are going to pay for this in blood.
