  The more I learn about the plight of women in the middle east, the angrier I get. I'm furious at that US government did not keep it's promise to help the most vulnerable people in the world. I'm furious that these arabs treat women much worse than animals and with so much needless aggression. I used to be a pacifist but frankly I've completely lost patience with the absurdity of this war and the worsening condition. Can't we just evacuate all the women and children then bomb that entire area into oblivion? These afghan men are a blight on humanity and irredeemable. They should be put down like rabid dogs. Yes, I'm sure there are some "good" arab men that don't treat their women like slaves and rape dolls. I don't know who they are though. All I know is that I see little girls with their nose cut off their face for escaping rape. Letting men have all the power is basically suicide for the human race. The fact that previous administrations, controlled by men, are the ones that created the taliban in the first place should illustrate the horrors of letting men with no concern for women's issue make all the decisions. I don't care if the problem with the middle east is religion or culture. All I want is that place to have some civility and behave like human beings.

  The poor sure don't start the wars, but where would the politicians and generals be without the poor to fight them?!

  It is a crying shame, money is truly the root of all evil. The powers that be will never care about poor people. It is good that we the people can still get the truth, sometimes. I guess once the US falls into abject poverty, we will take care of our own woes. Maybe then we could be a real example to other parts of the world, because we would have real working answers, to everyday problems. God help us all, while there is still a world to help. 2012.
