During the Vietnam War the vietcong would invade a village, drag the village head out in front of the entire village, and dis-embowel him(rip out his intestines) just to show what happens if they are not loyal to the cause.. That doesn't make occupying vietnam a good idea, how often did that happen after the Americans left?

Occupying Vietnam was a good idea. Our war efforts were crippled by the cowardly politicians and subversives at home, just as the same disgusting classes-- and in many cases the same disgusting people-- are trying to cripple our war efforts today. Withdrawing from Vietnam was a terrible blow both to American credibility and to the Vietnamese people themselves.

A war of occupation, or imperialism and fighting a nationalist insurgency is a dirty business...

And yet it is still better than tolerating regimes which are hostile to our interests.

Who the hell knows whats going on out there... This is such an obvious piece of war mongering propaganda...

It is characteristic of how the Taliban regime treats women. It is no worse than the acid attacks that occur frequently if Afhganistan, frequently with less or even no provocation.

... stuff like this isn't just the insurgents doing it.

The difference is that when we do it, it is a crime and it is treated as a crime. When they do it, it is policy and they are praised.
