Embarking on his new, start-at-the-top, military career, our dear leader has now branched out into a form of Chicago-style nation building in a region of the world that has historically been totally forsaken by the god of the Christians and Joos, and left as the prime territory of the primitive arabian Moon god Barack sometimes worships as his Allah.
Chicago-style nation building is related to the protection rackets gangsters of old used on the citizenry of the Windy City.
However, instead of speeding slab-sided autos dispensing Tommy Gun bullets and unsophisticated explosives to unconvinced merchants, he is now embarking on a more modern racket where .45 caliber bullets and Tommy Guns have been replaced by 4 inch rockets delivered into the mom and pop joints from Predator(y) drones lurking overhead 24/7.
Wars fought in the style of the liberal Democrats - that is, wars with rules that only apply to our troops, are soon going to be condemned to the trash heap of history by none other than the current hero of the liberal Democrats.
Obama cannot win in Afghansistan, rather, our troops cannot win in Afghansistan fettered by rules thought up by liberal brains and applied by the presidential Messiah and his party of candy-as*es.
The Russians failed in Afghhanistan for precisely the same reason. They were fettered by rules. Not our kind of rules, of course, but the rules as determined by the weight of international opinion.
Ivan really wanted to kill off as many recalcitrant Afghans as he could, and in as many ways as he could. However, even Ivan was thwarted in his total conquest by rules forced upon him and imposed by world public opinion.
Ivan could have easily shoveled the population of Afghanistan into whatever hell was waiting for Afghanis due to their unusual religious and social prefernces by merely embarking on a Roman-style total depopulation and salting of the earth plan.
Those moutain-top hovels would have been no protection from someone who is really out to kill you and yours, and cares nothing for rules.
Disease and starvation would have been used as weapons to their maximum effect -- and they would have succeeded is far less time than the Russians invested in their nation buildinge experiment.
However, due to the secretive vestiges of Christianity left in even the heart of the godless Russian bear guys, the average, everyday, Ivans opted for the guaranteed losing plan of winning over the hearts and minds of the bone-headed Afghanis instead of just setting out to wiping them out to the last man.
I almost hate to say it, but I see our dear leader as the type of tyrant who would first fetter our boys and girls as they set out to build the Obama dream in Afghanistan, then, as the costs and ill-will toward our dear leader mounts, as it will, he will then send in his "special forces" and have them switch tactics to the Roman style frustration with nation building.
Tyrants are very predictable. Tyrants also attract personality types in their service that are also predictable..
