I agree with you 100% Charles. Harper has ruined Canada's reputation as an international peacemaker. Support the troops who are there, but don't support the warmongers who put them there.
It's a difficult call. By joining the arguably legitimate fight again anti-western forces in Afghanistan, Canada had the ability to opt out of the clearly illegal invasion of Iraq, but still have a contribution to point to in order to maintain our necessary alliance with the U.S.
There's no doubt in my mind that going there was the right call. Where I am stumped however, is about when the right time to pull out is. I have no faith that anyone (Russia, the U.S., or Canada) will be able to "nation-build" Afghanistan into a contributing member of the world community within our lifetime. Perhaps the piper has been paid and we should stage our withdrawl now.
One thing is for certain however. The conduct of our troops in Afghanistan has rebuilt the Canadian forces' reputation as hard working, hard fighting, and resolute. It's a damn terrible situation for them to be in, but I've got a post-Panamax boatload of pride and respect for the way they've fared.
You know this bashing has been going on for far too long. if the Liberals were in power you would be bashing their polocies as well.
You have to realize that we as a Nation are member of the United Nations and also of Nato therefore, as such we are obligated to do our part in maintaining the Peace and safety in our own Nation and also abroad. this is not a time of Peace so Peacekeeping is not going to work. this is a time of War against Terrorist who do not give one crapp about what or our values, and if given the opportunity they would come over here and kill each and every one of us in our beds. I do not like war nor to I like the idea of our Brave men and Women laying down their lives for a culture that does not share our values. In our Nation we have shoved our values that our founding fathers have left us to the side of the road in the name of tolerance, Well I can honestly say for the record that if we were living in that part of the world, they would not do it for us. remember that the next time you Critize and complain. Mr. Harper is doing a lot better job then Dion and the Liberals. All the liberals were about is Gay Marriate and Killing the unborn in the Womb. and that should be put on trial as a crime against Humanity.
