Returning from a mission, [a noncommissioned officer's] unit took casualties from an improvised explosive device that the unit knew had been placed no more than an hour earlier. “There were villagers laughing at the U.S. casualties” and “two suspicious individuals were seen fleeing the scene and entering a home.” U.S. forces “are no longer allowed to search homes without Afghan National Security Forces personnel present.” But when his unit asked Afghan police to search the house, the police refused on the grounds that the people in the house “are good people.”From NewsReal.

This is the kind of idiocy that surfaces when you don't go into a war to win it ASAP.
I think the President should bring the troops home. In my view, he's taking too much risk with their lives -- for too long a period of time (not to mention squandering money for no reason.)
If we're not there to kill people and break things then bring the military home because that is what their job is.
Bring them home and just thump the terrorist training camps with cruise missiles. Yes - some civilians will be killed and when they get tired enough of that shit, they'll start killing the terrorists themselves.
