Almost 9,000 innocent Afghan civilians died because 3,000 of ours died. How the fuck is that fair or worth remembering. If anything we should just try to be decent and forgiving human beings and forget the whole thing even happened.

cite your claim of 9,000. and what is your definition of innocent. and are you over here (afghanistan) right now? do you have ANY idea what its like to be over here?
its called insurgency. you dont know who the bad guy is. you never do. bout the only time we shoot is when we are getting shot at. hostile act, hostile intent, positive identification. so dont sit there and make it sound we are over here fucking murdering people. innocent people die, mistakes are made, but like i said its insurgency. They use innocent people to sheild themselves, they use them against us. They know we dont just go shooting innocent civilians. No one is going to know how many civilians died. By day they come right on to the FOB and sell us fake jewlery and oakley sunglass. By night they are plotting their attacks. Trusted interpreters setting soldiers up for ambush. I can go on and on. It happens. the Afghan National Army wears uniform. Insurgents don't. Insurgents are civilians. You want to come over here and be the judge on whos innocent and whos not?
