never served we wont follow

rememberence of 911 is the thoughts for me .to me 911 happens everday 140,000 us soldiers serving couragously in iraq and afghanistan. thinking of these times also reminds me allways of my deployment to the middleast. we veterense understand more common than not that redeployment from one combat zone to another combat zone will destroy the moral of the g.i that never sleeps protecting freedom. now winning in afghanistan if weve learned from iraq is not just the cause of sheere numbers but a real committement from the american gov .the afghan people needs police, a judicial system for law and order a real goverment freely elected by the afghan people an army, schools ,hospital ,infranstructure to bring them out of the stone ages .and a economy retraining farmers to grow legal crops instead of poppie the taliban,alqueda,foreing fighters crossing from pakistan,as well as civil streif sounds familure,to top it off it is considered the poorest nation in the world.and the roughest terrain in the world so i asked these question of the one who has never served how do we fight the terroist as well now entering a full scale war with drug lords and afghan farmers .whats the exit stragity, how many troops of course were not going in with overwhelming force.are we comitted to see it through as well morale for the g.i thats been deployed as many as 3 times an instead of comeing home he will soon be deploying to afghanistan.
