WikiLeaks : Massive leak of secret files exposes truth of occupation
 

Truth is coming out: http://wikileaks.org/

gee never would have thought that...

I know.. I am shocked ... I tought it was about freedom , liberating women and building schools .... :warning

Don't think it will shock many people but it is sad when most people expect the government to lie and cover up the true!

that dude is going to end up dead.

Me neither.

Last time any news this big was released was when the government announced
that fish could swim.

I'm feeling the same level of shock.

the fact is that if we would have taken a long term interest in building the infrastructure of afghanistan after the soviet war, things might be different..

what i am blown away by is the fact that military leaders will reference outcomes of wars fought in the 20th century like ww1 and ww2. The world has changed so much since then so i find it hard to believe that war strategies of that time play any relevance to wars fought today.

the afghan terrain should be likened to the terrain of vietnam if anything adn i think therein lies the problem. guerilla warfare of the north vietnamese should have taught us that unless we are willing to decimate an entire country, we cant win that type of battle.

its time to step up to the plate and launch tactical nukes or get out of there.. :2 cents:




.

This is a war of imperialism. Not a chance in hell we will irradiate nor leave that sweet, sweet mineral wealth.

they just need a footprint on a critical geostrategic point. they could care less about controlling it, let alone rebuilding it.

i dont know if its because we want the mineral rights, the poppy fields for pharmaceuticals or the drug trade for clandestine operations, or we need it as another launching point to control the middle east...

but its definitely not about liberating the people of afghanistan or preventing terrorism.. :2 cents:



.

wait... wtf do you mean "fish can swin" that's just insane...

Yep. Enduring Freedom indeed. The only thing that endures is that NO ONE has FULLY conquered Afghanistan since the times of Alexander The Great. Getting involved in that place is like willfully stepping on a nest of angry hornets.

NY Times: documents show Pakistan betrayed USA by aiding Taliban:

What a mess, this doesn't look good :Oh crap

Never happened.

that is not truth, they don't kill innocent people, they are helping them! /jesus

Read some of it on the NY Times sites, alot of crazy shit going on. The corruption appear to be beyond any hope of control.

only brainwashed and deluded people thought that the afghan war was anything but i giant piece of shit mess. hope this doesn't shock anyone.

so what the fuck does it say? everyone's talking about what it isn't but not what it says. lol

site isn't loading.

Time to bring our heros home and let them destroy each other.

Saw this guy on a recent TED talks video. He doesn't seem like a very relaxed person for obvious reasons..

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

I'm completely and utterly shocked.

For a site that "wants the truth to get out to the world"....

They need to add more servers :) Every time a big story breaks on there it slows to a crawl. I bet if the set up (they may have) a place where people could dontae to help support the site...people would send a fortune.

P.S. Read the background on its founder, quite interesting. Old school hacker in its truest form... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julian_Assange

Not on topic .. as usual ...

You should start a thread for that .... :2 cents: Oh, you did .... :1orglaugh

the predator drone killing people from a remote base in nevada is a secret? Shit I watched a whole show about that on discovery like 2 days ago.

you know the gov is blasting that offline right now.

You're right.... I realized after I posted it.... which is why I started the new Thread.


:winkwink::1orglaugh:1orglaugh



.

The documents are " confirming " was is either knowned or suspected..

As for the drones , under BUSH 200 so-called " insurgents " have been killed.
Since Obama is in office , 700 have been killed ...

Didn't expect anything else from the peace Nobel prize winner ...:warning

What I don't understand is what's the big deal? Like anyone with a brain doesn't realize there is some horrible shit going on over there that isn't reported in the media.

Anyone who's ever been violated by a person in a position of authority such as a local police officer should realize bad shit goes happens on a much higher scale when you're talking war and countries fighting. I doubt these documents even uncover shit that isn't recorded, anywhere.

So what's going to happen now? A site gets a bunch of traffic, media profits, and the government will just spin it and detract from what they should really be doing: fixing THIS country. Everyone loses.

ps. blaming Obama is silly, like he controls this shit.

oh yeah, and the liberals go fucking apeshit over this crap, I can't even watch it is too painful.

I think cover up of death tolls, corruption, war crimes and untrusted allies is a big deal. Whoever does it, which sides, we need to know and do the right things.
