In a large way you are correct. I say that only because the USA started it, and here we are finishing it. In the very least we have the majority of the world behind this war, whereas with Iraq we would be lucky to have your own country (USA).
Everybody agrees that the Taliban shoud have been taken out completely. My only regret is that they weren't taken out before they destroyed those 3000 year old statues. There are few cultures were you can objectively lob a judgement at and have it stick true. But you know what? The Taliban were worthless stupid disgusing iron-fisted bastards. And I am one of those few people who believe that morality can be judged objectively. Call me a disciple of Ayn Rand. I don't care. All I can say is that that backwards country is now on the right path ..... praise be to "god" or whatever you feel is great..
