4.0
by Dwight Rousu - Sep. 9, 2009

The article conveys the arrogance of the invaders occupying Afghanistan. Remote targeting troops too drunk to answer questions, and troops rampaging through a hospital would seem to show a military gone astray of any concept of winning hearts and minds.

Refresh the exit strategy page. This "war" was illegal and immoral from the get go.
