There were some interesting points that were put forward. You can say sentiment towards the present situation, however there is a very valid point regarding the US infiltrating the borders of Afghanistan.

I was typing a very fitting reply to everyone regarding my standpoint. What happened to freedom of speech? Sure you can say it was locked due to it was getting out of hand. Sentiments beside, the other point of view has to be taken. It has been noted in the past that taking a one side of a situationclouds the other points of view, which may or may not be correct. The views of the members of these forums are considered free speech. If one wants to declare his or her rationality towards the impending situation, I think you should let one do so.

I don?t care if you ban me, I have been a long time member of this forum, and putting my feet down on a situation that I feel very strongly about is my way of expressing my desire to be heard. If that isn?t allowed by your rules and bylaws, <STRONG>then go aheadand make my day.

The reason it was locked is due to the fact that the original Author of the thread changed the title of the thread and insinuated by the edit to his first post that he no longer wished the thread to continue. Feel free to start another thread regarding the same subject if you wish.
