    We deserve it then, so do the statues.

    Poor taliban people no wonder they hate anything modern, being bombed by barbaric people for so long it would make any peaceful person mad:(

    If your American pizza you should be a shamed of yourself:(

    we deserve what? it is very important to understand why people do things if you want to stop them from doing it.it is smart and necessary.
    why should i be ashamed? because i am a human being and value life?
    or i am smart and looking for smart answers to problems?
    you are talking about people that do not have running water, electricity, indoor pluming, roads,cars,doctors, medicine and almost everything else that you can think of. they have been bombed and killed for over 30 years.
    they live in mud huts and even that has been bombed a few times.
    it is stupid to drop a million dollar bomb on a mud hut. they will just add some water and they build it again. this is not a solution.
    you should be ashamed of yourself for being so insensetive and blind to facts.
    stupidity and indefference to other peoples problem is not what i want to be a symbol of my country may be you do

    "We" (the US) deserve everything you get & you should be ashamed being part of a torturous, murderous & barbaric nation. I thought you was using that angle?

    ;)

    we the human race must learn from our mistakes. the first step is accepting that we have made mistakes then we study them and learn from them.no guilt trip here, just logic
    you don't want to that because it make you feel bad
    stop acting like a child :mad:
    we should not have allowed our friends :rolleyes: saudi and egypt to dump their dangerous political prisoners in Afghanistan to fight the soviet.
    among these people were ben laden and the other guy the egyptian doctor. you know he was in egyptian jail and was released in Afghanistan.
    president Regan dedicated the shuttle trip to the Afghanistan fighters taliban were one of those groups. did you know that
    we are in a very important time with regard to Pakistan and must be sure not to make mistakes. that is why it is so important to be logical and prudent now.
    have you seen bbc video . power of nightmares?

    we have to do with taliban what we did in iraq. we have no fight with taliban. our fight is with al qada. localy we should negotiate with tribal leaders and have them deal with al qada. may be spend some money we have found the solution iraq and have the know how now..
    in pakistan we should stand behind democracy. try to get the lawyers and judges freed.
    long term we must help the local economy.micro banking is the best solution as far as i can see
    in the mean time we can buy these historical sites and pay the locals for its upkeep

    to put it in a way that even a first grader would understand.
    i think we must follow the same strategy that Gen Patreus have implimanted in iraq, in afganistan, and push musharaf to use it in pakistan.
    we know it is the best strategy that we have.
    and remember that our main enemy is al qada not taliban.

    Idle gods have no place in this world. And from the state of the world, I'd say gods have been sitting on their ass for far too long. Throw the bums out.

    That being said, no religion actually respect another religion.. Yes, not all religions act violently upon other religions, but it's pretty hard to find a Radical follower who actually respects other religions.
