You're right, we helped the Taliban drive the occupying communists
from their country, and we did not occupy it ourselves. How do they
repay us? By allowing their country to harbor terrorist base camps
from which attacks are launched against our citizens, military and
civilian, around the world! Screw them! They're certainly screwing
us!
