Afghan officer kills 9 Americans and Obama Doesnt Care

Obama forgot we are still fighting in Afghanistan. The toll number is 970 dead American soldiers and climbing. Just bomb the whole damn country and call it the day (showing frustration and disgust)!

(Yahoo) KABUL, Afghanistan – A veteran Afghan military pilot said to be distressed over his personal finances opened fire at Kabul airport after an argument Wednesday, killing eight U.S. troops and an American civilian contractor.

Those killed were trainers and advisers for the nascent Afghan air force. The shooting was the deadliest attack by a member of the Afghan security forces, or an insurgent impersonating them, on coalition troops or Afghan soldiers or policemen. There have been seven such attacks so far this year.

Although the individual circumstances may differ, the incidents of Afghans turning against their coalition partners seem to reflect growing anti-foreigner sentiment independent of the Taliban. Afghans are increasingly tired of the nearly decade-long war and think their lives have not improved despite billions of dollars in international aid.

New Low Poll for Obama on Afghanistan

I post a blog yesterday mentioning how 500 Taliban insurgents escaped from a prison in Afghanistan. I also added that under Obama's watch, over 950 military soldiers died in a 3 year span. To note, under the 8 years under Bush, only 620 military soldiers died. This incompetence of this current president is inexcusable. If his intention is to leave Afghanistan before the 2012 presidential elections, the president needs to pack it up now and stop any further spill of our precious blood and treasure. Now, the news of the handling of the Afghanistan war is voice by the low approval numbers for the president by the American people. If the Democrats keep insisting this is another Vietnam, their wish is finally coming true.

(ABC News) A record 49 percent of Americans now disapprove of President Obama’s handling of the situation in Afghanistan, up 8 points since January. And those who disapprove “strongly” outnumber strong approvers by nearly a 2-1 margin.

With Obama holding his monthly national security meeting on Afghanistan today, the results show a significant drop in the president’s approval rating on handling the issue, down 12 points in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll from a year ago.

The change follows an ABC/Post poll last month in which a new low, 31 percent, said the war in Afghanistan has been worth fighting. Sixty-four percent said it is not worth fighting, with 49 percent feeling that way “strongly,” both record highs in ABC/Post polls.

The spike in disapproval in the latest survey, produced for ABC News by Langer Research Associates, is almost entirely due to a slide in support on the right. Compared to January, disapproval is up by 21 points among Republicans (from 48 percent to 69 percent), by 12 points among conservatives (from 51 percent to 63 percent), and by 11 points among Tea Party supporters (from 55 to 66 percent).

Views on the war could impact Obama’s fortunes in the next election: Among those who disapprove of his handling of the situation, 70 percent say they will definitely not vote for him for re-election in 2012.

Obama Good War in Afghanistan Becomes a Cluster

Nearly 500 Taliban flee in daring Afghan jailbreak

Nato screwed it up again. They are unable to stabilize the region. Their incompetence is making the Afghanistan War look utterly hopeless. In fact, Obama's war in Afghanistan is unraveling. Afghanistan President Karzi is playing both side of the war and ironically, the US is pouring billions to his corrupt government. To make matters worst, Obama is allowing soldiers to die in order to make plight we have to get out of Afghanistan. Mr. President, why not get them out now and not before the 2012 elections. Mr.President, blood and treasure refers to our military men and women, if you didn't know. Under Obama's watch, there were more deaths in the 3 years as president(960) compared to the 8 years under the Bush Administration (630).

(Breitbart) Almost 500 Taliban fighters and commanders escaped from a prison in an audacious jailbreak in southern Afghanistan which the government admitted Monday was a security "disaster".
The Taliban said it sprung the inmates out of the prison in Kandahar through a one-kilometre tunnel that took five months to dig, and claimed all those who escaped belonged to the militia, including over 100 commanders.

The daring breakout in the Taliban's heartland, the second from the prison in three years, threatens to undermine recent gains claimed by NATO forces in the area after a US-led troop surge, just as the annual fighting season begins.

It is also a major embarrassment for Afghan forces who are due to take on greater responsibility for security in their country ahead of the planned withdrawal of foreign combat troops in 2014.
