Thread: Trump Monday Prime Time Address: Afghan Strategy

  1. #31
    Trump to India: "We are from the US government, and we are here to help."
    "Foreign aid is taking money from the poor people of a rich country, and giving it to the rich people of a poor country." - Ron Paul
    "Beware the Military-Industrial-Financial-Pharma-Corporate-Internet-Media-Government Complex." - B4L update of General Dwight D. Eisenhower
    "Debt is the drug, Wall St. Banksters are the dealers, and politicians are the addicts." - B4L
    "Totally free immigration? I've never taken that position. I believe in national sovereignty." - Ron Paul

    Develop stronger military relation with India. Demand Pakistan does more.

    More "tools of engagement" to the military. "No place is out of reach of American military".

    Wants more money and troops from allies.

    Wants Afghanistan to offer US money to help pay for US forces from their resources? Will help them rebuild so they can "pay us back".

    Listening to Fox today, it sounds like the plan is to fail with "4,000" for a while, and then let any Trump challenger come in with an Erik Prince solution.

    New strategy sounds a whole lot like the old strategy.

    if he wants more money for our military, start with our BUMBLING Navy. can't seem to sail in open waters safely. otherwise withdraw all troops from afghanistan.

    Afghans will secure and govern their own nation. We will develop commercial interests to defray our costs.

    In other words, we'll set up Afghani stooges to let us raid their natural resources, and we'll help them tax the $#@! out of their goat herders.

    Hundreds of thousands of our bravest lie in Arlington. And we're going to send them a lot of company, even though nobody in Afghanistan is an actual threat to us.

He goes whether you agree with Trump or not that guy looks like he loves America. You ever had an insane person attacking you with a chainsaw saying I love you don't run away? That's what it feels like to me.

    It's what you were expecting plus he mentions Pakistan a lot, and how much we love our ally India.

So advocates of liberty must reject incremental approaches and fight boldly for bedrock principles.

    On the bright side, now he'll own it. Somehow Obama got away without ever really owning the disaster. The anti-war left is sure to wake up now. It's been a long coma.

    Antifa seems to be proof positive that defending Obama's wars has transformed the American Left forever.

    I think he deserves a chance at his approach, Taliban and Isis are bad, Ron Paul authorized this war, and as Zippy loves to remind us, President Trump constantly changes his principles, and gives up when it gets too hard which means 1 year from now will be full withdraw.
    I just want objectivity on this forum and will point out flawed sources or points of view at my leisure.
