Your continuing war on Afghan civilians is disgusting and immoral. You were the presidential candidate who was going to change things, who was going to make Afghanistan a limited war against the Taliban and Al Quaeda. Instead, it's been more of the status quo -- Stanley McChrystal's rhetoric notwithstanding. In the latest episode - or at least the latest that the pubic knows about - on 12 February in a village near Gardez your special forces killed a well-regarded local police chief, a pregnant woman, and several other non-combatants. How much hatred of the United States did you create with that one incident? How many young recruits for Al Quaeda did you galvanise? If this is the way your army wages its war, they're doing the United States more harm than good and ought to be sent home immediately.
