Well, you do have to cover your own ass. maybe you'd feel differently if it were your ass on the line.

You have a point even though its from a defeatist point of view. I would like to think that some people out there even in Afghanistan love their daughters, wives, sisters, aunts enough to stand up for them when they need help. Even if it means dying for it. I couldn't live any other way, myself.

But that's just me.

On one occasion she recounts despite the pleading from allied forces to be able to treat the women in the village, village elders refused. So about 150 women were not allowed to see a doctor if they needed to. While the men, children and donkeys got the care they needed.

I've heard tell of a similar situation where some women needed critical care for injuries sustained in an IED attack and a group of men demanded that the women be left to die instead of receiving treatment from male medics. In that situation the men were told to f*ck off and when they got nasty about it several of them were shot. An action I fully approved of.

I could only imagine bearing witness to that, I think I would of been a tad pissed off with the "males" demanding we let the women die rather than trying to save her life.

Its fucked up thinking, period.

Ahmadi is right.....We knew it right from the start that it was a lose lose situation......Harper in his twisted ways killed 85 good Canadian people....I guess he sees immigration as replacing those good soldiers.

Like the Russians we'll leave the country without accomplishing anything but leaving long lasting hatred for Canadians......

What an ignorant fuck. I guess he forgets' which party sent us into Afghanistan. Typical lefty bullshit, pass the buck.

It's just one guy's opinion. We lefties didn't elect him our spokesmodel.

Touche.
