Forever War

Everyone's talking about the attacks in France. But Freepers have nothing new to say, as their genocide meter is already pinned.

So on to an adjacent topic that allows for something you haven't heard a thousand times.
Obama announces that we're leaving Afghanistan. Freepers respond by proclaiming that war is never over.

Because who needs to have some sort of achievable end goal for war?

Netz expects that troops in Afghanistan were all that was holding back hordes of terrorists.

Yes, the delusional President is proud to tell the American people of his AMAZING and COOL accomplishments. What he is not telling us is that his actions and lack thereof are paving the way for the worst and most dangerous coming years to the well being of the nation and the planet.

Yes, it's a real “Peace in our time” moment as the consequences of his idiotic Presidency will be felt, big time in the next 2-4 years. America and the West will pay dearly for this horrendous mismanagement of the country and immature Foreign policy that is collapsing all around us.

Thank you Mr. President, for a job NOT well done. He is seen as a buffoon around the planet...

MeshugeMikey hates how Obama makes it so personal:

the repugnant pukes personal war against America isn’t over....

Ezekiel truly understands Obama's inner workings:

His war on the Republic and the American People is just getting warmed up.

He definitely has a psychotic need to bludgeon America the Beautiful to death, like one of those grizzly crime scenes where the victim is stabbed several hundred times. Something about America stirs in him a deep hatred and lust for retribution..

4rcane splits hairs about legal definitions of war.

I noticed the article doesn’t correct obama that he is wrong on it being US’s longest war. They usually do this when a republican make a mistake

Freepers discuss Vietnam, Korea, the Cold War, and the War on Poverty in their quest to make Obama wrong.

LSUfan knows it only takes one side to fight a war!

Will somebody please tell the Taliban, AQ, the Haqqani Network and all the rest of them that the war is over? The war doesn’t end if one side keeps fighting. Look for Afghanistan to become a launchpad for global jihad once again down the road, courtesy of Barack Obama...

informavoracious pushes the sunk cost fallacy to the max.

My heart aches for the spouses, children and parents of those who lost their lives or were maimed there.

Old Sarge posts this for like the fifth time I've seen.

My loathing of the illegitimate, bisexual, Marxist kenyan Muslim usurper requires medication.

I suspect he just went on blood pressure meds or something.

MrB will spend a century in Afghanistan before he accepts defeat.

“Wars” don’t “end” - they are won or lost.

But of course, lefties will not accept this reality.

Also, too - who won the war of 1812?

Logical me is looking forwards to blaming Obama for the next terrorist attack.

What has really happened here is King Obama has now removed from Iraq and Afghan and now allowed the terrorists to regroup and prepare the next attack on US soil. Thank King Obama, the ignorant communists black Muslim terrorists.

Lockbar thinks we gotta stay in Afghanistan forever, for the women.

And what will be said when thousands of Afghan women have their eyes plucked out because they learned to read during the past 10-12 years?

SierraWasp is not a fan of President Obama's 2003 speech:

As President Ronald Reagan said to Jimmuh Carter, "There you go again, Jimmy!" Here comes another insipid "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!" (snort!)

RobinOfKingston is one of many Freepers to declare that we've always been at war with Islam.

Afghanistan, along with Iraq, isis, Libya, and the rest of the list, are not wars in and of themselves. They are battlefields of a war that is continuing unabated. It is a war that has waxed and waned since the 600’s. It is the war of islam to conquer the world. It will not entirely end until they have converted to Christianity or until they have been annihilated.
