Why not send our entire military there..hundreds of thousands or millions of troops? End the thing once and for all by destroying the country completely from the air and long-distance via armed drones. How long is this supposed to go on? What have we been doing for all these years and here we are after how many have died and we are LOSING? Apparently our military strategy leaves much to be desired. OR the war goes on purposely to make money for weapons-producing companies. Capitalism at its finest. No war? How much money do they lose? Isn't everything always about the money or oil or corruption of the wealthy? Harsh judgment? Ya think so?
