[QUOTE="mYth, post: 168876, member: 8107"] Because we have something they'd hate to give to their people......freedom. When I fnished my first tour in Afghanistan, I went back to see the progress that had been made, and i was stunned speechless and my heart ripped from me by what i saw. It was a classroom (forbidden there under the Taliban!) that was made by Seabees, and it was full of Afghani children, being taught by an Afghani woman (it meant death for women to learn anything outside of their house!). That was the speechless part, but the heart-wrenching part (yes, i DO have feelings!) was that they were learning English by singing the Star-Spangled Banner......... [/QUOTE]
