I agree that Buxh made the right move in cleaning the Taliban out of Afghanistan. I only wish that instead of embarking on Iraq, he had devoted the resources to Afghanistan and cleaning up the Kyber Pass area of Pakistan (instead of making Pakistan our ally and having them dictate to us that we couldn't go there). That area of Pakistan is not governed by the Pakistani government and that's where the bad guys hang out. It's a lawless place.

I'm not sure I agree that the US "frees" other countries. What right do we have to go in and "free" other countries unless we are asked to do so? Can you tell me an example of where this has successfully happened? I think it was admirable when we went into Kuwait in the first Gulf War, and we did so at the request of the Kuwaiti government. Are you thinking of Panama? Or our counter-drug activities and anti-guerilla activities in Central and South America? I think we did some good things there, but I don't think but we were working largely with the legitimate governments in those places. I had a friend of mine's wife was killed flying counterdrug surveillance missions in Colombia. But I don't think the average American knew a lot about what we were doing there.
