    I guess the question is would we still have wanted them to take the shot anyway? I guarantee you the military didnt just wake up and think hey lets go murder some children today for the fun of it. If nothing else its bad PR. Something led them to believe it was a bomber. Next time they may actually be correct.

    I think most people agree that we had no business being there in the first place and then this "shit" would not "happen".

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    It was nice to see Tucker lead with this tonight, and of course Douglas Murray is right, the top layers of the military and the agencies such as the NSA and CIA are rotten, and must be replaced, immediately.
    I choose my own words like the Americans of olden times........before this dystopia arrived.

    No, most informed people believe that after 911, we had to stop the ones who planned it and remain to prevent further attacks.

    That plan worked for 20 years.

    What’s to stop more 911 attacks now?

    You can leave the war on terror but the terrorists do not leave the war.

    You are a fool.

    I don't think there's much back story. It was an easy target. Thousands of people crowded into a confined area, with numerous American military. He couldn't miss.

    There were hundreds of 'civilians' there which meant absolutely nothing to ISIS. They hate everybody.

    War is hell. Best not to start one.

    In this case, it was blood lust by our intelligence, and they goofed. Now they have to find actually enemies to exact revenge against.

    The fact that our airports are run like prisons, for one. They would need to employ Putin tactics and buy a few inside actors. Americans are whores. There is almost nothing Americans won't do for money.

    Probably best if trump didn't surrender without consulting Afg. govt. officials first?
