No objectivity at all, just dripping venom for the people and institutions that do the dirty work so that you can live your pampered little liberal life.

The U.S. military could have turned Afghanistan into rubble if they were so allowed, but whining liberals like yourself always bitch about the collateral damage. So we put our men in more danger to fight carefully so that we minimize collateral damage, and then you whining liberals bitch that we're not winning the war fast enough. I think the common denominator is that regardless of what, or how well, the military does, whining liberals bitch about it.

So OK, for a trillion dollars we get a group who can either kill everone in a country or is consistently defeated by what amount to fucking bandits. Fer Crissake we started this country by winning a guerilla war and since then have lost every one like that we've gotten involved in. I think it comes down to our national character. Americans root for the underdog even while we're doing our best to kill him. No matter how strong we might become or justified we might be we don't like being the bad guys

We were clearly protecting the Germans from the French.
