A soldier was killed in Kandahar from an accident discharge of another soldiers weapon.
While i was there in January, there was an accidental discharge in the tent site i was staying. The bullet ended up two tents down from me. It hit a soldier who was sitting on his cot in his leg. I was sleeping on my cot at the time.
The C7 automatic rifle is carried by all soldiers. Some higher ranking Non commissioned and all commissioned officers carry 9mm pistol. Unfortunately the training for the 9mm is very minimal, so improper use is common. On top of that, a lot of 9mm's are given to members who have never held a pistol in they're life, which makes them turn into cowboys.

I am sick of people saying we shouldnt be there and how wrong it is to put SOLDIERS in harms way. They are SOLDIERS, trained for COMBAT. Harm is their business.

Jack Layton is an azzhole! He's the NDP leader that opposes, very vocally, that Canada should not be in Afghanistan. Thats all fine and dandy that he feels that way. But he speak very loudly that the mission in Afghanistan is not working and pretty much saying it's a waste of time.
But you know what? We are in Afghanistan, and Canadian soldiers are fighting and dieing in Afghanistan. And your a Canadian political figure saying on National TV, basically saying that these soldiers have died for a lost cause and they should never have been there. Now the family's of the fallen soldiers are listening to this dipsh*t tell them that they're husband, son, father, or brother has died for nothing and that they were not doing anything for they're country and for the the people in Afghanistan.
Let's see you Mr. Layton show up at a soldiers funeral and speak about how his death was a waste of time and Canadian tax dollars. Jack Layton is one person I really want to boot f**k!!!

mojo, i salute you. i support this mission 100% and i do not KNOW why anyone is actually OPPOSED. we are helping rebuild Afghanistan and give them freedom and free them from taliban and drive the terrorists out. does no one recall that it was from afghanistan 9/11 came from? its proof that we are really hurting the terrorists and their operations because they ar egiving us warnings of GET OUT, OR ELSE! we are getting rid fo the taliban and giving rights to everyone that had NONE before. it is a perfectly good cause and if youve ever seen what its like there, you wouldnt want to stay. and they all want us there. is layton's solution to immigrate to canada? because you cant have reconstruction if the taliban kill the construction workers. or have girld taught if they kill the teachers and burn down the scholl. WE HAVE TO BE THERE AND STICK UNTIL THE JOB IS DONE!

i dont support the mission in afghanistan. all there doing is killing themselves and innocent civilians. they killing more innocent kids and their families than terrorists. each day its getting worse and worse there even george bush is slowly admitting it. their strategy has backfired and these terrorists will want revenge when they soldiers come back. there is never an end to these wars, its a vicious cycle.

and to those people who think there rebuilding afghanistan, thats ridiculous. they destroyed more than they rebuilt.
canada needs to stop doing all the dirty work for the usa. theres obviously no end at all. when iran gets their nuclear weapons its gonna get even more fukked up. the way things are going right now i seriously think there will be a world war 3 soon.
these tyrant leaders george bush, mahmoud amdinejaad etc dont want peace so only God can save us now.

and i suppose youre one who thinks we should do no action to stop iran? we will rebuild once someone wont destroy it. you cannot rebuild when they destroy. you just want to leave them the way they were? these are cowards that go to children and blow them up and kill 4 soldiers that are just trying to give peace to innocent afghanis. terrorists try to kill them cause they dont want freedom. its easy to see the good guys here. once theyre finished, then we can rebuild. for now its a war against the taliban and terrorism.

so what is the solution? violence SHOULD not be the answer, but in some cases, it has to be, as in this one. you cannot sit down with them because they will not and WE will not. and obviously the terrorists dont think so when tehy attack the western world with fuc*ing radical islam extremaism

What makes you believe this? Have you been there? Do you know somebody that has been there? War sucks, and I wish for "world peace". But reality is, that is only a dream. Taliban (radical militia group) controlled Afghanistan. With they're crazy religious "morals", they kept Afghanistan as the world's most underdeveloped country in the world, and caused sooo much pain to they're people especially to the woman with lack of rights and education. Woman are killed when showing any skin what-so-ever and desire to learn. The Taliban also allowed El Qaeda to run a terrorist "base camp" for training missions to kill innocent people. El Qaeda were the route of 9/11. NATO led by the USA removed the Taliban of power in Afghanistan. Now, NATO (led in Southern Afghanistan by Canada) are basically seeking and destroying Taliban and Taliban supporters, along with providing security and support to the government. Also, trying to rebuild the country as in economy, infrastructure, and a proper police force. I agree with the rebuilding of the country as been very slow, with more emphasis on seek and destroy missions. But the threat needs to be eliminated before any rebuilding can be done. Do you have a wife? a sister? a daughter? Would like to live in a country where these females closest to you would be killed on the spot for showing a desire to be educated, work, or show there face? I'm in the military and I spent some time in Kandahar preparing the base for the Canadian Battle group. I refuse to believe that time I spent, having my gf and family worry about everyday, was a waste of time. |
