I've been posting a lot on Afghanistan, being more than annoyed at making a war zone out of a country in famine...and burning their crops.It sure makes a mockery of any notion Canadians have of themselves as 'the Good Guys'.
What could one expect when leaving the parameters of 'peacekeeping' for the UN ( keeping an existing peace ) for adventuring with a treaty organization tasked with defence of the Atlantic gone to a land war in Asia ? Talk about 'Mission Creep'... and the late arrival of Orwell's '1984' !
