Reporting from Kabul Mandy Clark reports a U.S. colonel and major were killed in a shooting at Afghanistan's Interior Ministry; the building is under lockdown; Also, 6 Afghan police die trying to defuse a bomb on the fifth day of protests over Koran burning
Never understood why we were there in the first place. Nothing good has ever come from fighting in that country.
I feel that the Democrats pushed Afghanistan because they needed a foil to Iraq for political reasond. They didn't want to back the Iraq war because it was started by Bush, but didn't want to be seen as wimps. So Afghanistan became their choice and Obama has doubled down on the bet.
Hopefully we'll just get out all together and stay the hell out of Syria.

It has been said throughout history that "Afghanistan is where Empires go to die"...American politician's arrogance never allows them to review history though
