allied troops injured and maimed in the conflict in afganistan are waking up in hospital, with taliban casualties in adjacent beds, our soldiers are up in arms about this, as they claim these taliban could have been the very ones who put them there, or have killed their fellow servicemen.
Do you think it is right to have such mixed wards in hospitals there?
i personally believe that our troops deserve better treatment, and those such as the taliban should be treated elswhere, under the geneva convention we are duty bound to tend these injured opponents, but surely commonsense would dictate we do it in a seperate facility.
I was in Khandahar in Nov. & Dec. and worked with the taliban that they allow on base as labor. They were mostly decent workers but said they would have to kill us if we went out to their village.
I also got to meet some of the young men and women who were stationed there. These are young kids who should be home drinking a beer and chasing each other around a dance floor, not getting shot at. Bush says attack and everyone says no, osama obama says escalate in Afghanistan and all the sheeple say yea. There is nothing there except the poppies that the u.s. needs to fund the war on terror and drugs. What a joke. Just say no.
