The Pentagon Papers Part Deux

[nadinbrzezinski]

anybody catch that internal report leaked to Richard Engel?

The mission in Afghanistan is not achievable. So what now folks?

For all of you going RA RA, what now?

Oh and the mission is to prepare a capable national army \ police, alas graft and personal interest has taken over from national interest (and to those who know Afghani history this is not shockig or surprising either)

1. I was hoping someone would bring this up. This makes me want to vomit. What the hell do we do

NOW? Can Obama change course or make adjustments? We are so screwed...........I hate war!!!!!

4. I suspect there is a reason this was leaked

institutions have a way of doing things, but leaks can bring outside pressure to change SOP...

5. You know, Brzezinski (CFR) wanted out of Afghanistan and said so on MSNBC

My guess is there was a internal schism, with the CFR on one side and the Pentagon on the other.

6. And don't forget CIA

back to the future, as in 1971...

2. Did you catch when this report was done? Although I guess it really doesn't

matter as he said the Military KNOWS it's not going to 'work'.

Do you think, now that this has been leaked, that Obama may do an about face? I'm hoping the media will make a lot of this.

Why didn't Obama listen to Biden and the others trying to warn him away from this?

3. The empire will do what the empire will do

this is the cliffs notes as to why Obama did not "listen" or rather why a President in the modern period cannot really listen, no matter what party he and some day she. hails from.
