THREE THINGS MUST NOT BE FORGOTTEN… 1) Anmunitions, artifacts and weapons were resources somewhere reported as used during the war within someone’s budget and war operation plan estimates; first problem is, all these left behinds will now be used against people who fought against an enemy in such a wasted war (what a shameful pitty!), and secondly, all the findings clearly show how corruption is made and grows in every war, no doubt, given the documented evidence in such magnitude that one could undeniably reaffirm that ALL THESE WAR FIGHTS ARE DONE IN THE NAME OF DEMOCRACY AND FREEDOM WHILE LEAVING BEHIND COMPLETE SOCIETIES BURRIED INMERSED IN POVERTY, MISSERY AND AFFLICTION AS A RESULT OF A WAR BROUGHT ABROAD FROM FOREIGN POWERS TO THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AND REFUGEES, CAUSING SUFFERING AND DISCONFORT WORLDWIDE. 2) What is being seen was expected in regards of locals recovering terrain, just because it is their country, their land, their territorry; A NATION IS NOT A GOVERNMENT, and a government is a representation of a nation, and as such, guess what? IF A GOVERNMENT IS IMPOSED BY EXTERNAL FORCES, not by the nation they are supposed to represent, no need to be sufficiently smart to know the answer. 3) The participating countries (in the Afghanistan war) are going to face the sad truth and high political price of a lost cause, a total waste of an unworthy effort to control a foreign country with an ideocracy governance (Idiocracy refers to a government formed of people either considered stupid, ignorant or idiotic, even constituted by/from trators of their own country, people or believes); some of the failing generals recently withdrawn, dare to keep trying to convince people that THE WHOLE WORLD WHOULD BE MORE SECURED if the troops are kept in AFGHANISTAN. Wrong!… It would be like saying that if someone feels that a neighbor represents a menace to the neighborhood or to one’s home, then that house must be taken by force, submit and surrender to the invader, or even worst, be exterminated in behalf of democracy… ¿DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW MUCH MONEY REPRESENT (TO ALLIES) ALL THE WEAPONERY AND ANMUNITIONS LEFT BEHIND? I did not hear anyone saying anything about it in your news or documentary… I BELIEVE IN FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY BUT UNDER THE RIGHTS AND RESPECT OF SELF DETERMINATION OF THE PEOPLE OF ANY COUNTRY.
