Why is France in Afghanistan? That question may resonate among people who themselves have a habit of running Gulags where tens of thousands perish such as North Korea, suppressing freedom of expression at will, as in China, suppressing political competition as in Russia, and the homicide of homosexuals and free women in Iran, Saudi Arabia, and on through the middle east the list goes. The cruel perpetrators of these horrors are probably very much concerned.
Why is France in Afghanistan? Maybe some French people think men throwing acid in the face of little girls so they can’t go to school is cruel and barbaric. Maybe some French would like to be unselfish with their freedoms, is that hegemonic?
If France hides away and does nothing, will all terrorism go away? What is France; liberty, equality, and fraternity? The French lit a torch when they revolted and that light is still shining, it shines on the shores of the United States, and it shines from the center of Europe, people can see it, they would like to walk in that light also. NATO is an instrument to protect and defend, it is an alliance, if it did not exist, would it justify doing nothing in the face of the extraordinary oppression the Taliban would like to install? Is it ethical to do nothing when people are executed for believing in the God of their choice or no God at all? What can France do? She is in Afghanistan, it isn’t the solution, but can the French do nothing? The Taliban, as it spreads and grows will spare no one.
The Taliban want to attack Paris. Are Parisians quaking in their shoes? I doubt it. Paris is the most beautiful city I’ve seen, her people the most passionate I’ve encountered, whether I agreed with them or not, they were and are beautiful too. I would die to defend it; an attack on one is an attack on all.
Nobody has yet explained why NATO is in Afghanistan. The organization was designed to prevent Soviet tanks rolling across the plains of Northern Europe and is NOT equipped for export!
You fight like our crusders did ,you anniliate the whole of society ,you match terror with terror.all this talking is for morons ,these people dont change. ,terror is the only thing they understand ,..
