Pentagon extends tour of Marines in Afghanistan
The Pentagon has extended the tour of 2,200 Marines in Afghanistan, after insisting for months the unit would come home on time.
The 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit, which is doing combat operations in the volatile south, will stay an extra 30 days and come home in early November rather than October, Marine Col. David Lapan confirmed Thursday.

1 I suppose those officers in the Pentagon raised their right hand and a took the same oath. Why is they can lie to the troops for months (you are going home in October) then tell them November and no one is supposed to say a word. If I say we have no business there, then I am told I don't support the troops. Which one of us is not supporting the troops here? |

1 The military are not morons like Bush. They know their mission was flawed from the beginning!

General Norman Schwartzkopf : Iraq Quagmire For USA Iraq Quagmire: That, George Bush, knew! http://tinyurl.com/2q9ex6 http://www.youtube.com/watch... ---------- Untested administration hawks clamor for war Beware of war hawks who never served in the military. http://tinyurl.com/yvkumd That, in essence, was the message of retired four-star Marine Corps general Anthony Zinni, a highly decorated veteran of the Vietnam War and the White House point man on the Middle East crisis. Zinni is one of a growing number of uniformed officers, in and out of the Pentagon, urging caution on the issue of a pre-emptive strike against Iraq. In an address recently in Florida, he warned his audience to watch out for the administration's civilian superhawks, most of whom avoided military service as best they could. "If you ask me my opinion," said Zinni, referring to Iraq, "Gen.(Brent) Scowcroft, Gen.(Colin) Powell, Gen.(Norman) Schwarzkopf and Gen. Zinni maybe all see this the same way. It might be interesting to wonder why all of the generals see it the same way, and all those (who) never fired a shot in anger (and) are really hellbent to go to war see it a different way. "That's usually the way it is in history," he said. http://www.usatoday.com/news/opinion/2002-09-... ---------- Cheney 1994: Invading Baghdad Would Create Quagmire C-SPAN http://tinyurl.com/3d6x5b http://www.youtube.com/watch... |

2 Those wars, along with speculators and China & India's increased use of oil (which is out of our control) are the reasons for the high price of oil. Oil Cos, like any corporation, do not like unstable areas. Thus the high price of oil. |
