Most normal people who dont live in denial know that.

I passed there once, a real shitty place, was that you're face I saw at a window?

No matter how you construe it, Afghanistan is not Iraq.

Woops. wrong thread

And yes, the Afghanistan (MISSION?) is because of Iraq

How can this be when the war in Afghanistan started BEFORE the war in Iraq?

Oh brother.

So you are saying young Canadians were dieing needlessly in Afghanistan BEFORE bush invaded Iraq and now occupy?

Agreed 2 different countries all together

Ah, yes Canadian troops have been deployed to Afghanistan since 2001. The US did not invade Iraq until March 2003.

So again, how can Afghanistan be because of Iraq?

But not in a combat (MISSION?)

How is the killing of Canadian kids in Afghanistan the result of Iraq?

Are you seriously asking that question or just playing games?

Like what the hell was America doing invading and occupying Iraq in the first place, rather than being in Afghanistan fighting their own made in America war?

Wrong again you are.

JTF2 (Joint Task Force 2) was in Afghanistan. It was used in a vital role in calling airstrikes and directly confronting al-Qaeda and Taliban positions.

Once the regular forces were on the ground in January-February 2002(still before March 2003) the Canadians were used supporting the war effort until Operation Anaconda began in March 2002. During the operation, a Canadian sniper team broke, and re-broke, the kill record for a long distance sniper kill set in the Vietnam War by an American Marine. Operation Anaconda was also the first time since the Korean War that Canadian soldiers relieved American soldiers in a combat operation.

Get your facts straight.

Say what you want.
The reason Canadian soldiers are dieing in Afghanistan and killing Afghani civillians is because America is busy occupying Iraq.

I mean really dont try and come up with some little example that Canada was fighting a war before the invasion of Iraq when everyone but a few deniers know otherwise


And also say what you want but if the Americans had not given their PAL Bin a 6 month head start, and then decided to worry about invading Iraq instead of staying in Afghanistan, the whole MADE IN AMERICA mess in Aghganistan would have been over years ago.

But instead, it will drag on forever
Then one day Canada and whoever else will leave , and the place will be just as it has always been

And oh, your precious killing machine Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry .were only there assisting,on loan basically for 6 months, no commitment had been made from Canada to be in Afghanistan permanantly

Hey, guess what? There are still shitloads of American soldiers in Afghanistan AND it was the first place where they went.

Except it was a war, well over a year before Iraq was even looking like a possibility. The taliban army at the time was quickly dispatched and the taliban ousted. Now, they are returning. Everyone threw their support behind America in the invasion of Afghanistan which resulted in women not being stoned for walking the streets alone.

We were at war alongside the Americans, British, Dutch, French, Germans, Polish, Danish, etc. in Afghanistan well before Afghanistan.

You seem to be confused over a very simple thing. Back then, we were in Kabul. Now, we are in the extremely volatile south because the north is stable now, thanks to our efforts. This has nothing to do with allowing America to fight in Iraq.

This is baylee canuckns, him not interested in facts. Only interest is his own little warped world view.

Killing machine? Guess what princess, they are soldiers trained for war and combat operations, that why we give them assault rifles with bullets and grenades instead of placards that say "Won't you be my friend?"

They are soldiers trained for war and combat operations, which entails taking another individuals life. That is part of war, so stop whining and crying, and suck it up princess.

Baylee, dude, I was in Afghanistan in 2002. It was combat oriented, and the boys were sent into combat operations. Unfortunately, the boys did not get to see real action, except for the snipers, who kicked ass where ever they went. We were there before the invasion of Iraq, the enemy, the taliban, were trying to kill us even then. In fact, Iraq was the idea on the American's minds as they sat in Kandahar because they figured they were going to be there in less than a year.

Iraq and Afghanistan are seperate conflicts. Afghanistan is not the result of Iraq. Canadian soldiers have nothing to do with Iraq.

You can spew whatever mis-informed garbage you want, it will not change facts. It will not convince anyone, especialy we soldiers who have been there and done that. Believe me, when you have your life flash before your eyes due to a possible IED right in front of you, you do not forget.

Remember Baylee, you have the right to be a troll because of soldiers fighting for your rights in the past and the present. At least show some respect for the veterans who have suffered the tragedies of war so you don't have to.

Baylee specializes in stupid statements. "Killing Afghan civilians." IED's laid by the bad guys are killing the civilians. Those guys in civilian clothes shooting at our guys are "illegal combatants" according to the Geneva Accords and fair game.

Yesterday I met an acquaintance (WW2 vet) on the street. We commented on the 8 guys killed recently.....

He said " Isn't it strange how the world has changed for the better." He looked me in the eye and pronounced..."In your war and mine, we lost that many guys before breakfast."

He has a point. He and I are not minimizing/dismissing our losses but just putting them into the realm of reality.

A reality beyond the reasoning of the Baylee's of this world.

[george123]

Very true.
