i say it is time to pull our troops out of there and bomb the hell out of the mountainous region and leave them to what they know which is drugs and fighting since forever. russia even had enough brains to pull out of there years ago. NO more american bloodshed. we are probably there because of the proximity to iran , just like the war in irag. I do not believe america will ever capture or kill osama bin laden because they dont want to upset his family in saudia arabia, all of the above why? because of oil.
