1. Someone better send President Obama the section with
Marilyn Young and Pierre Sprey. Otherwise Afghanistan will destroy him. This is an excellent discussion. Pause and talk -this continuous killing will solve nothing and will make things worse.
The parallels with Johnson are mind-blowing. You can't bomb people into submission - that drone was a very bad start.
