No Victory or Winning for Afghanistan

In a speech on WAR, Obama has no mission for victory or to win in the front of the war against Islamic terrorism in Afghanistan. Obama has announced to the enemy, all they have to do is wait a few months and Afghanistan is theirs. Obama’s excuses and blaming of Bush and Karzai won’t fool anyone around the world. Obama is trying to look tough without any conviction, he is trying to remove responsibility as Commander in Chief.

All I pray and hope for is that Al Quaeda and Taliban just wait this out without much violence against our troops who are now martyrs in Obama’s political game. Obama is willing to put 30,000 more troops in danger to make himself look like he is doing something when in fact all he cares about is an exit strategy.

In Four Thousand Five Hundred Eighty Two words, Victory or Winning is not mentioned.

This man is a disgrace.

Rules of Engagement for our troops in Afghanistan as of Feb, 2009. The ROE is called ‘Karzai 12′.

This is an annotated list:

• No night or surprise searches.

• Villagers have to be warned prior to searches.

• ANA or ANP must accompany U.S. units on searches.

• U.S. soldiers may not fire at the enemy unless the enemy is preparing to fire first.

• U.S. forces cannot engage the enemy if civilians are present.

• Only women can search women.

• Troops can fire at an insurgent if they catch him placing an IED but not if insurgents are walking away from an area where explosives have been laid.

Anybody wondering why troops deaths have risen so dramatically under Obama’s micromanagement?

Obama isn’t dithering. He’s offering Afghan provinces to Taliban

No wonder Obama doesn’t believe in victory, he believes in surrender. Maybe he’s got some French in his blood. Nope, I think it’s his love for dictators and thugs.

From Pamela at Atlas Shrugs via Redstate and Threatwatch:


Obama Attempts to Surrender to Taliban again …………. If at first you don’t succeed, cry cry again
Once again the jihad groveler in chief is doing his damndest to turn over as much as possible to the jihad. Earlier this month Obama fails at Surrender: US offers Taliban 6 provinces — Taliban says no.

So now Obama is offering Kandahar, Helmand, Oruzgan, Kunar and Nuristan province.

Funny how during the campaign Obama repeatedly spoke about upping the ante in the fight in Afghanistan. Now, not so much, he’s waving the white flag.

And people said that Carter was the worst president ever!

Stop with the photo-ops Obama, SEND REINFORCEMENTS!

Yes, I do believe this was a photo op meant to deflect from his dithering and waffling on sending additional troops to Afghanistan. He is shameful. Symbolism over substance!

He isn’t fooling anyone over his feigned concern for our troops and his staged salute for the remains of Sgt. Dale R. Griffin of Terre Haute, Ind.
