| Afghanistan is in ruins, how can anyone ask NATO to leave before we clean up the mess that has been caused by the Taliban and then in defense of the innocent, NATO? The Taliban should stop fighting so we can provide the help Afghanistan needs to rebuild itself into a better society. |

| What debate do you ... ( 5 months ago by RenzeZielman) |
| What debate do you guys want ? the ages old tracks-vs-wheels debate, or the troublesome violence strategy of the US army, that turns itself against the men on the ground ? The one debate is held with the facts of the other, and vice versa. incorrect use of facts to prove your points, doesnt quite increase your credibility... btw can one be sued when openly argueing the strategy of your army ? In that case i can imagine why this debate is camouflaged under the "wheels-vs-tracks" debate !! |

| nomorenarcissism I am glad we agree on something, NATO does help a lot of Afghan's. However our LAV's are well liked by the Canadian soldiers. |
| The NATO mission in ... ( 4 months ago by nomorenarcissism) |
| The NATO mission in Afghanistan is moral even though we are sided with drug warlords...the people don't want the Taliban. SOME unwise Canadians like LAV-IIIs that are road-bound; smart Canadian professionals realize they need tracks to go cross-country and avoid giving Taliban land mines easy targets. |
| This isn't a debate ... ( 4 months ago by nomorenarcissism) |
| This isn't a debate. Its about life and death, victory or failure. Wheels are miserable failure in Iraq/Afghanistan. We need all-tracked forces backing border security fences and separation walls. The duty of the officer is to serve his people with military excellence--not make excuses for failures. |

| North Atlantic ... ( 2 months ago by DanielG54321) |
| North Atlantic Treaty Organization If a NATO country is attacked, all other Nato countries must help defend. NATO also leads missions when all countries in NATO agree. Like the Afghanistan mission. Do a search on google for nato and the first site is the official NATO site. It is very interesting. |
Tell a friend:















PBS documentary shows a Canadian PRT team at an isolated FOB in Afghanistan trying to win over a nearby village from Taliban rebel sympathy by repairing their water pumps and supplying other needed items. "The kingdom is lost for want of a nail" when the native contracted supply column is turned away because the bomb sniffing dog discovers a driver has traces of explosives. Why OPSEC is violated by having locals drive supplies to FOBs in the first place? Thus, they cannot get measley spark plugs and LAV-III/Stryker clusterfuck drive into a run-down road-side black market where their "shooter" foot narcissists hop out and proceed to "block" the road by NOT blocking it as if Afghans who have lived with guns for centuries are going to cower at them brandishing firearms. When Afghans continue to drive because the Canadians didn't even post traffic cones, they eagerly open fire with "warning shots"...even when moving the fragile truck force resorts to gunplay because they don't feel safe in their allegedly "armored" LAV3Strykers spitting out warning shots left and right and causing a truck to over-turn and nearly killing an innocent Afghan.
This non-road block incompetence is practiced by DAMF American punks in Iraq, too:

A "pound-of-cure" MEDEVAC helicopter is flown in to fly him out, but the "ounce of preventable" damage is already done. So much for "winning hearts and minds" this day. Emasculated ground troops in wheeled LAV-III/Stryker trucks are set up for road/trail restricted failure wherever they are. How many spark plugs or even brand new water pumps do you think could have been purchased for the cost of avoiding the UH-60 Blackhawk MEDEVAC helicopter flight?
Why not send a LAV-III ambulance if they are sooo land-mine "protected" as their liar proponents say? Ask this Canadian Medic's family:
