Canadians want troops out of Afghanistan

Most Canadians want their troops to return from Afghanistan if the death toll continues to climb and believes that the “war against terror” has increased the risk of terror attacks in their country, according to a poll published on Sunday. Fifty-five percent of those surveyed by the SES Institute study for the Sun-Media group said they wanted Canadian troops to withdraw if the military’s losses rose.
Most of us would love to see our troops withdraw from Afghanistan and Iraq -- always provided those countries aren't run by lunatics. That, keep in mind, is how we ended up in both countries in the first place. Allowing the ISI to install Chapter Two of the Taliban in Afghanistan makes even less sense to the West than does withdrawing from Iraq and leaving that country to its own devices. As the left is constantly reminding us, Iraq wasn't involved with 9-11. Afghanistan actually was, and that's not something that can be changed. The tactic the bad guyz are following is to try and scare off the weak sisters from the international force, leaving only the Americans, who can then be trapped into a grinding guerrilla war like the Russers were. A fickle public and a cowardly Democratic party can then be counted upon to get us out in the natural course of events, leaving the whole dog's breakfast to the ever-helpful Paks.
