In discussions today in Berlin, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton dismissed the president once-promised July timetable for beginning the withdrawal from Afghanistan, insisting that it was vital for NATO to make clear that they are “not leaving.”
Clinton went on to warn member nations against leaving the war for “political expediency” and insisted that nations must not consider what she called a “hasty” withdrawal. She likewise insisted the war is going really well.
The warnings against a “hasty” withdrawal have been common among administration officials, and each time it is a wonder that anything done in a war that has already lasted nearly 10 years could be called “hasty.”
Clinton then went on to disavow the 2014 date touted by other nations as the end of the war, saying that the US “partnership” with the Karzai government in Afghanistan would last “well beyond 2014.”
Oh, what a good idea! Let's not be "hasty."
At least another ten years of reflection and bombing are certainly necessary before coming to a "hasty" decision.
Is Hillary's middle name Prudence?
Hillary Clinton to NATO.., look people we just started another war in Libya.., where we would be occupied for at least another 5 years.., I don’t know where is going but you can wait until we know where is going then we can get out of Afghanistan within that time frame and send the troops to Libya.., meanwhile we can make a deal that Libyan war is a on going one…,before that I need to ask my tyrants friends in middle east and see what they have to say about this and if they can ship in some of the costs.., about the US budget problems.., ohm don’t worry yourself about that.., we always have a budget for wars.
Excuse me. The war is going "really well"? Please let me just remind you that war is HELL. Soldiers suffer, civilians suffer, nature suffers, everyone suffers. It is, contrary to popular belief, not fun. True, you get to release your lust for blood and some revenge (if you have any of that), but after that is done, all that happens is that your soul gets destroyed.
Trust me, in a 10 year war, all that is going on in year 10 is pure soul destruction, day after day.
"Hey, how's hell going?" -"Oh, it's going really well."
Seems to me that HELL is what Hillary Clinton desires. Or lives in. Possibly: both.
she sickens me to the core! Warmonging AIPAC sucking pig!
Hillary Clinton never qualified for any government position held. The lady just does not have it upstairs. For her to say, "let's not be hasty" in a withdrawal after ten years of fruitless wasteful
war is proof enough. The lady just does not have it upstairs. During her stint as senator for New York, nothing was accomplished by her.
Don't worry, Hill. We understand the need to stay for at least another 10 years until the pipeline is completed.
-It is time for the US democratic party to be dissolved.., so is the time for the republican party.., having said that: the reasons for the argument is .., there is no democracy implemented by the democratic party nor the republicans social political agendas for the republic. There is absolutely no benefits for the people or by the people when these two parties are voted to govern the country. These two parties are war parties and therefore US been at wars for last 60 years.
2-USSR and its political wing the Communists party was dissolved because the systems was not working for the people and people demanded to be dissolved.., in US people need to do the same or the alternative would be demand from someone within the USG to define the word democracy where people would understand where they are and what is it that they are facing. US governments been acting and supporting a militaristic states and in terms of social political or social economic followed such policies both domestically and internationally, so the argument remain.., where is that democracy that USG talking about.
3-The people benefits are taken away from them one after another, social security, healthcare, jobs, their rights in political views and other social issues that people been fighting for in last 60 years, the uprising in Wisconsin capital is just an example. By USG creating more wars and for that or verity of reasons more of the peoples rights would be taken away; therefore, the time is now for people to act, it is the responsibilities of the local and states media to inform people about these matters, it is time for people to organize and create a true and functioning democratic political party where people matters are first in all social political agendas.
4-Voting alone is the basics rights of the people yet such rights been used and abused by USG promising changes which are yet to be materialized.., this has been the promises said and not done for last 20 years yet the all promises about wars from Balkans to Iraq and now in Libya been a fact in deception. There are many examples and US history is full of it, here it is not time nor a place to mentioning them.., but a short reminder.., from Vietnam to present wars in Libya USG been lying to people to start a war.
