#1 I guess a carload of women was an irresistable target.

Carload of women. School full of children. No one has ever accused the brave Lions of Islam (may their flea bites itch forever) of fighting above their weight class.

#2 Just read a posting from Michael Yon saying that Afghanistan is heading down the tubes. This was in addition to an editorial in the WSJ today.

We need to sit on Pakistan hard or just ignore them and start hitting Taliban locations in the Paki frontier provinces. So they will seethe, BFD.

We also need to scorch (napalm) the poppy fields in Afghanistan. We know where they are because we can see them on sattelite. Why this hasn't been done is mind boggling. The opium trade funds our enemy. It it well past time to get on the stick.

#3 re #2. "Why this hasn't been done is mind boggling"

I think that it hasn't is because 2 reasons, the greens and the left,
First, the greens will argue about killing innocent plants and ruining Gaia.

Second,the left will holler cause the heroin users will have thier supply cut, and then they would lose thier voting base once everyone came out of the fog.
