Quote:It begs the question, what would be the military objective of an invasion?   Install a friendly regime?   They are already a friendly regime.   Who are we  supposed to kill?   What are we supposed to destroy?   I hope the next time someone suggest this to you, you would ask them these questions.

Hey, I didn't say it made sense, I'm just sharing what I've heard over the past 10+ years. The people you kill and destroy are those responsible. We don't know who exactly that is (outside of bin Laden) so we went to Afghanistan since bin Laden and al Qaida were so strong there.


Some things make sense at the time that, when reflecting on years later, don't make much sense at all.
