The "war" in Afghanistan is not about terrorism. It is about oil, pipelines, opium and political influence.

Again, we aren't at war with Afghan, we have nothing to lose or win, nothing to be successful over when it comes to Afghan, nothing to strike that would bring anything to an end.
Speaking of respect, how about respecting those that have fallen in combat, not protecting oil, pipelines or opium.... because it's not all about that, at least not the stories Veterans tell.
