In midst of Afghan review, Pentagon officials suddenly circumspect
It was a double-take, what-did-he-say moment at the Pentagon Wednesday morning when the official spokesman ducked a question about whether the U.S. military is making progress in Afghanistan.
Usually that would have been a slam-dunk for the military. Defense Department officials miss no opportunity to point out successes and highlight achievements in the war in Afghanistan - usually. But the latest, looming, soon-to-be released White House review of Afghanistan strategy is stifling such talk for now.
"I'm not one to judge," said Col. Dave Lapan about progress in Afghanistan, at the regular off-camera meeting in his Pentagon office. "There are lots of people who have been intimately involved in this process. I'm not one of them so I'm not going to give my idea."
It ?is intolerable.
Every thing has certain limits. This is ninth year of lies which Bush had told to his nation before invasion of Afghanistan. This gentleman and many like him, especially the bigger one too spoke a lot of lies to justify spending of taxpayer money however actions proved louder then the words. Bill Gates in recent visit to Afghanistan too could not hide coming challenges on Afghan front. So fact is fact and nine years had been too long to say the truth.
When all is said and done these Islamic extremists will be defeated and maybe not love the Lord Jesus but will be submissive to Him!
I was wondering what happened to all that right-wing bravado. How old and corny it gets!!!
