The farce that is the war in Afghanistan is coming apart at the seams. General Stanley McChrystal’s sharp comments about Obama, Biden, and the administration published by Rolling Stone are not so much about disrespect, as the script-reading corporate media talking heads would have it, but rather about a policy in disarray in Afghanistan.
(There is no real enemy to fight in Afghanistan..........mission was accomplished in 2001. Even with a mass compliant media, after 9 years you are obviously going to be struggling to justify your presence there, and the issue is which leader or general in the USA has the courage to finally tell it like it really is in Afghanistan....we're not in 1910 )
Obama the wunderbar teleprompter reader (and little else) is instructed to push the completely untenable prospect that the United States can win the so-called war in Afghanistan, a country often referred to as the graveyard of empires (tiring overused cliche that bring no benefits for Afghans).
The British, the Russians, Alexander the Great, and Genghis Khan either fell to the Afghans or made painful concessions. The British suffered one of their greatest military defeats in the Khyber. 16,500 British soldiers and civilians, retreating after defeat in Kabul, were slaughtered by the Afghans. One person was spared to tell the story.
(The worst British military defeat has to be Singapore 1942, where 140,000 British Empire troops surrendered to 30,000 lightly armed Japanese troops, without a fight; The Japanese reputation had preceded them)
The establishment knows it cannot “win” in Afghanistan and the claim the U.S. military is there to defeat the Taliban and al-Qaeda is nothing but transparent propaganda.
("al-Qaeda" is a nonexistent entity whose existence is propagated by Israel/USA, and their client states in the Middle East. The Taliban is a creation of America from 1994, and actually run by the ISI,.......the ISI which America controls and bankrolls)
Afghanistan is a black hole sucking up men and machinery for the sake of death merchant profiteers. It is valuable real estate to be held — not conquered — real estate where opium grows for the sake of CIA off-the-books operating capital funding covert wars against enemies of the global elite. The fantastic profits earned from opium also flood the coffers of the masters of the casino economy on Wall Street. As Catherine Austin Fitts has documented, without this influx of laundered underground and illicit money Wall Street would have collapsed long ago.
(America doesn't need $1 million per soldiers to effectively profit from that business in Afghanistan.........the greatest profit for the American criminal elite is from narcotics in South America, but there isn't a military presence there to secure that business, but instead reliance is made of local criminal stooges........politicians, military, police and left wing groups)
After the so-called Afghanistan assessment was supposedly leaked to the CIA’s favorite newspaper last year — the report recommended in Pentagon-speak securing the population, aiding in providing good governance, building and mentoring the Afghan security forces — McChrystal threatened to resign if he was not provided with resources to accomplish the mission.
(The American forces can NEVER ACHIEVE THESE NOBLE AIMS, for a variety of reasons. The quicker it is realized the better for all)
In other words, McChrystal said he needs more troops, something our rulers will not do. Not because it is politically unpopular, but because the mission in Afghanistan is not to win. The unstated mission is to chew up men, resources, and a lot of money loaned out by international banksters. The mission is to keep an unwinnable conflict on low heat indefinitely, or at least until the United States collapses from the crushing debt burden.
(Like Vietnam???? Wasn't that also about drugs too; Golden Triangle etc)
McChrystal made his opinion about the corporatization of the “war” known in April when he criticized the use of private-sector contractors. “I actually think we would be better to reduce the number of contractors involved.” He suggested increasing the number of troops “if necessary,” or “using a greater number of Afghan contractors, or Afghans to help with the mission,” according to the Boston Globe.
(Yes that again sounds reasonable, BUT McCrystal has a track record of saying reasonable things to the media, but the reality in Afghanistan is something else. Ultimately McCrystal must as a "Noble Pure Warrior" face the truth which is that he is nothing more than muscle for the Wall Street narcoteers and money launders, and the question is how long he intends to stay in that roll, churning out ever more improbable narratives for staying in Afghanistan.........there is no "enemy" to fight in Afghanistan and deep down, if non-delusional, he must know that. A few disgruntled Afghans armed with AK-47, angered by poor treatment by the notorious Afghan police, security forces, and occupation troops does not a make a serious genuine "enemy" which the sole Super on earth should be expending its best military efforts to wage "war" against......it can't be)
Instead of acting as the CEO of a floundering occupation designed to last forever, McChrystal hinted he would resign. “Three officers at the Pentagon and in Kabul told McClatchy that the McChrystal they know would resign before he’d stand behind a faltering policy that he thought would endanger his forces or the strategy,” it was reported last September.
Now McChrystal and his boys are making sarcastic and derogatory — even adolescent — remarks about Obama and Biden in the presence of Rolling Stone journalists. McChrystal realizes this behavior will likely result in his forced resignation. He has obviously arrived at a decision to publicly express his contempt for Obama and the administration.
Contempt for the Chicago Mafia errand boy and accomplished teleprompter reader is now a popular sport not only in Washington but around the country. He will likely go down as the most reviled puppet of the ruling elite in modern history.
