Dear Editor, Afghanistan is an unending nightmare that will never go away.  We got Osama Bin Laden. We wanted to avenge the heinous deaths of September 11, 2001. We were all mad and we are still angry about what evil people did on that day. We will never forget. We could have covertly taken out Bin Laden and many more terrorists without all that our political leaders have done over the last 20 years.  Thousands of parents lost their children in Afghanistan. Thousands of spouses lost husbands and wives. Children lost their parents. These precious Americans will suffer the rest…

The Taliban’s is stricter. You aren’t allowed to own automatic weapons or handguns. Thus, while the Afghan citizens have struggled for defense weapons, the Taliban and other terrorists have had access to all they have wanted. The bad people have guns. The good people do not have guns. The bad people…

Dear Editor, With the Taliban now as the Afghan government, it is very possible they will revert in culture back to the 4th century, but with 20th century weapons.
