dimes asked in Politics & GovernmentPolitics · 1 decade ago

will we be getting ready for another war if obama gets in?

But Obama says that in Afghanistan, more American troops are needed to stabilize the area and that Pakistan must do more to deny terrorists a safe haven

Afghanistan's weak government and rampant drug trafficking are hampering efforts to fight al-Qaida terrorists

doesnt this sound like bush's - lets police the world?

are you still wondering what change is since he is the same as bush?

    Obama's plan for Iraq is virtually the same as McCain's and Bush's. Troops will remain for a very long time. Afghanistan is yet another open-ended war and there's even a multi-national force there. Obama will continue with the status quo. The only change he believes in is his proclivity to change his mind about major political issues daily.

    If we have to stop another 9/11 and kill those terrorists, so be it. Call that policing the world if you want. Afghanistan is where we need to focus right now.

    Obviously with his National Police force armed as well as the Military the war will be at home against the American people. We saw this once before, they called them brown shirts.

    Look Obama the candidate is very different from Obama the President. Now is his last chance to express some views. Once in , he will have to do the plutocrats' bidding. Let him enjoy himself. He's not serious about anything. So why are you?

    We are already in Afghanistan and that war might have been finished long ago if we hadn't diverted resources to invading Iraq.

    I'm not wondering 'what change'. I've read his platform. It's just more of the same.

    I'm not voting for change, I'm voting for dollars.
