I would rather we go back into Afghanistan and fight off the Taliban. We didn't do a good enough job all those years we were there. We need to eliminate the Taliban and all civilians who support them. By the time we leave women should be walking on the streets not in burkas or hijabs but in western fashion including bikinis.

@Cleancut Your comments show a complete lack of understanding of the realities of life in Afghanistan. The women there don't want to walk around in "Western Fashion including bikinis" they want to live in a Secular Muslim Nation with basic human rights such as education, health care and freedom to go where they want to without being supervised by a male family member. Yes the Taliban need to be eliminated but we don't need to change the entire way of life of a foreign Nation to suit our wants because they live differently than we do. Your comments are no better than the Taliban trying to make them into something they are not...
