Taliban claims it shoots down helicopter in Helmand province - Telegraph

^^^This is the reason why I don't really care that they peed on them, yes they were idiots, but the Taliban deserve much more than that.
Maybe we could stuff their bodies with bacon? No, it'd be a waste of good food.

Oh, and this is just great.

Shooting down enemy aircraft seems like normal war behavior to me...

So 2 wrongs make a right? Worse behavior excuses bad behavior? What are we, 8?

We did things much worse than this to the enemy in WW11 and as I recall we won that war and havent had any trouble with the losers since then.....gez Until these countries KNOW who is superior we will always have trouble with them...Either we win or they win Pee on them slit throats whatever we need to put them in their place once and for all then they can become good friendly productive countries like japan and germany have

Matt 5: 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,


Seeing as people keep claiming we're a "Christian nation" and pretend to be devout Christians while blowing up other nations, one might think they'd actually follow their supposed beliefs.

If we're going to claim moral superiority, perhaps we should start actually showing we are better than them by taking the higher road.

Indeed, many Americans are no better than the Taliban, but keep living in their dream world where they are superior and what not.

Anyone who thinks that should be shipped off to Afghanistan so that they can see just how much better we are.

I get that, but does that mean that we should just lay down and take it?

Maybe the strategy is to get them into that room and then pee on them while they're still alive.
