No comment. It's Friday night and I'm on the "two beers and one democrat" binge already.

Best advice yet. Nothing wrong with being curious and in time, you'll learn situational awarness. Just remember Jake, this is an adult site and you might be getting in a little over your head.

That's why we are in Afghanistan. Why did Delta Forces' plan get denied? Aren't they the best soldiers America has?

First off, deleting your inital post and replacing it with "nevermind" shows a certain amount of disrespect and immaturity. Next, posting a youtube link and with your own "That's why we are in Afghanistan" comment is simply not a smart idea. I posted earlier that this is an adult website. You are expected to act like one, especially as a guest. Tread lightly, seek the information you've come for (by using the search button) and post a lot less. It'll make your stay here both longer and more beneficial.

You need to pay attention and remember, Politics is the realm of politicians and war is the realm of Warriors!
