The war will NEVER be over. We have been Afghanistan now for 128 years. EIGHTEEN YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can anyone tell me what we have accomplished??? We have been over there 4 1/2 times longer than it took us to win WWII...and the only gain made so far has been to Cheney's "Halliburton" company's bank account and the accounts of all who profit off of war.

Oh and the undertakers we pay to bury our kids for nothing.
@anythingoes477 War profiteers have sold alot weapons.
@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow Haliburton was busted back during Bush days for charging the U.S. government for 250 times more meals in a month than we even had troops in Afghanistan. That went on for 3 years..........Cheney made billions upon billions fraudulently. The sentence after finding wrongdoing??? "Stop that". No jail time--no paybacks. Nothing. Zip...Nada. Bush would simply have pardoned Cheney anyway and taken his cut if anyone did complain.

Wars are money makers......and kid killers. The thing is no poor person will ever make a dime from a war...and no rich family will ever lose a kid to one of them. It's the American way.
