Hard to believe, as it doesn't fit several narratives being propagated these days, but while Europeans are indulging in
binge drinking and Americans are descending into the madness of conspiracy theories, 2,200 Canadian troops have quietly been
systematically destroying the Taliban in Western Afghanistan. Go Canada.

This is good news. Someone needs to take over for us Americans while we lay naked on the bathroom floor in the throes of our binge hangover.
Thanks, Canada.
I have been reading about this, the Canucks are kicking ass over there.
The Canadians have been doing great work despite the CBC and NDP. I heard on CBC radio the other day (I live near Detroit) that the NDP is pushing to bring the troops home and get out of Afghanistan. Well, NATO is falling down big time. The Euro partners in NATO (save Great Britain) want to pick up and go home and have been pulling out troops. Norway won't send any troops into combat nor even into supportive roles, even if troops are not in combat. I guess they want to clean toilets in Brussels instead. The Taliban are still a threat, and Blair is begging the Euros to stand up and get their act together on this. These are trying times. But way to go Steven Harper.
But the CBC (don't get me started) guy who's name I don't remember gave a report the other day on how George Bush has been saying for years that Saddam was behind 9/11 and finally took it back only to commit the grievous offense of linking Iraq to the WoT. The guy doesn't actually listen to what Bush says but probably watches Farenheit 911 when he wakes up every day.
Knuck,
The older the chimera, the more expensive the maintenance. The socialist bread and circuses cost so much that maintaining even the illusion of military competency is beyond the reach of most of NATO. Which the oil ticks have duly noted.
A return to dispossession and plunder as a just consequence of war would solve the problem (plus its the epitome of multiculturalism - adopt your foes concepts of life as a mark of respect!) but its better that the socialist regimes of Europe collapse first.
Killing chimeras is even harder than supporting them.

The cat was hanging on your every word.
