" just happened today you know get when there was bad tollbooth that."

" Okay -- thing is the 72%."

" OK good glad to hear that. 18774694322. Now this year as you know there is a a serious problem over in Afghanistan. The the that power band and insurgency. Has as picked up momentum over the last few months and they they are now -- challenging the the corrupt government and there are there couldn't. Inflicting more casualties on the NATO troops. Also known as the United States troops. And that we do wanted to check in today with colonel David Hunt who's been over there are several times in hand he is president of power coronation as you know. Just wanted to ask -- the current kernel. What is go what is going on I mean why can't why can't the president come to a decision on what he's gonna do here I mean what this is this is horrible."

" Yeah but it's. It's the -- administrative burden it's -- 40000 people over very quickly Marines. Jim Moran how the province. All he's fired that general McCarron hardens got a great tall -- and the -- up. The problem is at least the 40000. Option that everyone talks about -- is -- 83 year to five year commitment not just quick. And the problems administration had a bit or keep therefore that would be eleven years. I've been -- them -- an eight yard and it looks like it looked like indecision about but it while supporting the military. I think he's gonna make a decision that's closer to this what -- Biden option which is a small number of soldiers. That chased bad guys but not the nation building. So by the -- all this talk in just fourteen guys who -- Situation they'd be agents and the cricket match and that I bought what Iraq took to borrow 447 people not Americans. But it's not this enough to time and and it's not assigned her decision I think it's time enough to make that call we we -- where they don't make."

" This time. For President Obama to make good on his promise. The White House let's stop dithering while America's armed forces are in danger."

" OK now as far as the draft darker -- worldwide presence speaking. I'm sorry but these -- my age. I'd say ears and a lot of that botnet -- are not administration. But it did I got that -- a -- to comment but the idea don't look now Italian port. They're very good ministry adviser Jim Jones. They're good guys secretary defense we get a good general there they -- give you recommendations portrait site looks good sound looks like it's more like despite an option."

" And I -- I. I don't understand how good how the Biden option worksheet you'd just that you -- you basically elected them overall rod in the country. In that you just in that if they get out of hand -- you hear that does some with some big al-Qaeda big wig is there you bomb the hell out of them I I don't amused that doesn't seem like a long term solution colonel."

" It has been efficiency short term -- We -- by the -- that with Islam a bad mouth or draft idea Caleb does say that they've bought administration which measures that could got -- on al-Qaeda. Yeah Afghanistan this is Apollo bought and other aspects. A terrorist it has been very. In Afghanistan. Although I played particularly -- could hold them."

" We don't got I mean we don't really hear about the Taliban except that they provided a al-Qaeda due to watch that it try to set up operations that killed us. Right I mean who."

" That's why it's only reason we care what appears. That the only reason not a lot of solitude so that -- hear the -- to keep upsetting. The planning of -- bad guys -- by killing them by chasing him. And that's what we've been doing for eight years as it between those two and hadn't worked. But what and -- personal plan calls forwarded it to counterinsurgency and nation building strategy. -- accept. Ahmed that the company is test all before it was president got to make the call -- is looking an effective doing that and giving people. The option forget decides to -- talked so I gotta get a corporate and by the way we got salty diet like did have a very. And we need to just."

" Yes so I just I just came over the war the wire one of the one of the Marines killed was a there was a guy from Massachusetts from North Attleboro -- cap and Kyle. -- he has why he fend daughter and his wife is pregnant with their first son. It's just it's just really -- a terrible thing I mean a you know. You lose troops in combat but you don't wouldn't when they're just kind of that they're sitting at this point it's -- would you describe a sitting ducks I mean when that you know they're trying to figure out what they're gonna do."

" Knowledge not not a medium range at the -- know what I'm doing though there. It's without additional thought -- army guys are very being very aggressive. There's a change in strategy works what do you sitting sitting -- as a strategy. For our guys I don't -- the actual or what have I believe that's fine. This tragic wanted to get it -- an excellent. What did you mean when her an altitude adopt that something called the door shut down. Mom thought the bot -- if it's a terrible loss -- since they initially units and and Padilla. Call it just. Apple has been months in this kind of a team. It can make the call and that's -- it's frustrating. One way or the other arm to do decide what when you do that if the problem if you fit right now presents that well -- and the -- soldiers. -- takes six to nine months to multiple. This could not something's gonna happen tomorrow economic frustrating point that to planners are the ones in the Pentagon and -- good move from a -- shippers. Don't let people that we would be hard to try here to try to. Make this happen and by the way those areas very very important in a war -- what is match of the shippers -- just -- people and then they're okay."

" Didn't he say I think there I don't remember it happening because he can't follow everything the guy says he wouldn't have time to do or do anything else in your life. But Charles Krauthammer had a column a couple of weeks ago saying that he made a big announcement and in March or April saying that he would come to a conclusion they had a policy what they were gonna do. And now they've announced there is no policy what happened that a policy from the spring."

" Our baby was told I -- that general don't illustrated by the fallen marine general. Former Bob former NATO commander good guys -- veteran. I nodded what do conscripts you -- I think they've that they've got stopped I think it's I think it's ugly I think called Amber's got it right. This just in his wheelchair and been criticized admit that you could potentially happen. You know YouTube you can sort of campaign."

" It's not a good job but it's like Krauthammer who called the press conference and said he had a -- Right and -- he just knowing that he's just pointed out that he did though it."

" But guide and I this is bad. Not -- not a good policy that says it took dragnet felt like this you make the decision would without assault in which did it fired again -- do you get to. Major recommendation you -- the point and enable the White House will be the -- about three weeks ago. --"

" It was a White House -- did this allegedly got Woodward and not that it -- pentagon."

" Absolutely part of our -- dispatch office specifically Italy that's what Rahm Emmanuel. Yeah actually like the White House and the White House reaction was. You know mental Wales Victoria projection what you -- here lately now heavily exposed our military -- would be held account. Helped hold the bag what they think they have been in Iraq they've they've they've. They're fighting back a bit saying look if you want -- it's got me this kind of stuff why change the may meeting. Could Obama told the crystal you know about a year. Get the stuff. That's been mentioned then that you don't find 94000 got an amount. Yeah -- would change that that's fine and then this it'd -- but it's good for Paul to be humid some public. I don't think anybody looks great I think with the weaker doing it I think the president is portrait --"

" 18 it did the bush Italy did -- pushing back against Cheney to they're saying that you know that the bush show I got troop requests all the time for Iraq and he never did anything whether is that true."

" It's clear it's clear by 2005. And again in -- break in the forestry here and plaster came within a minute that's six years seven months in Iraq is quite yeah its computer let's say like 2005 that the war -- get the White House the wide open -- We got twelve. And I think he'll do that that you can you can what is thought to -- because Rumsfeld -- Who to blame so is Cheney had a pretty good stage was being told by the Cypriot military finally. Gotta cut off its ass and actually set what problem what so we're real decisions being made. That would which right about that are established what you think quicker now all that's what I'm getting out the non military upfront as saying hey what successfully -- diet. Finally how we did is almost scrapped by default would have died died when McDyess. You know living is listen Carol despite their parents could opt in Afghanistan -- army guys doing great job all these big boys argue it's time -- that's."

" I know what did you start to read these stories that you know that these guys are complaining units it talking about morale being lower beating you didn't seem to have that problem I Iraq you know because you'll. But everybody seemed to be on the same page basically weren't they."

" They yes they certainly have -- but after -- look at the reality is after eight years in Afghanistan as explicit as in Iraq. Morales can I mean that that's going to be talk. This whole -- deployments and I don't think you can blame politics as much you can and number deployment suddenness. They apparently linking these guys do like with the -- but this isn't this just remnants of the marine -- and army. All we got guys find this text combat deployment the logistics guys going nuts it's. It could barely -- on our uniforms or was there any enemy every -- just -- it's a bit long small the last eight years."

" 187746943. Q do you have time to take a few calls colonel."

" This just a nice stay -- you --"

" This is are you up in Maine today."

" I'm outside thank you --"

" To shame that -- closed down for the season we have but not he had an -- a Bailey Bailey did open Alberto we're all winter. Which tends will be opened a new round march around saint Patrick I don't like to become under way I -- there. A great place great -- case carries people day -- just number just number two -- climate that's all that. Well -- your next with Howie -- and colonel David Hunt go ahead rob."

" colonel thanks for your service site because look. A two points. First of all of Barack Obama was very muscular during the campaign talking about the necessity. A when he and act -- have to ask. And now -- you know you live from Churchill to Neville Chamberlain -- once she became the commander in chief. And I think that politics here that this object of health care instant cringing on their help them yeah of the US soldier morale. I think the focus on health care -- it was badly and I know he needed a victory but I haven't -- August. And he would move forward with what the popularity among the left. But it tendered attended the whole thing. -- US soldiers at risk because you know. He's the Muslim look at the strong or whenever they -- the week course. They get energized and energize that they'll look at the protests in the ball so what do you wanna do what do what do you wanna do that can't get -- what do you want done. I wanna listen to the crystal. Analysts and -- David Petraeus who are the experts are insurgency. And that was decided in March 27 and that's what ought to go forward right now."

" Okay I appreciate -- about the they're we're just -- what they want is this is three more years and that long and we understand. That's what's so adamant at least three more years that's that's what Petraeus immigrant to want. Girl questioned how many do you think al-Qaeda is planning ahead three -- or no no no no no no I'm I'm really I'm just saying gotta be a part of -- I thought I'd tell me where they find in addition which we can't do eight -- what we just did. We've got it would like at this that this -- one -- and when he's undoubtedly what's."

" You would colonel what's the Alter the alternative is basically. We're gonna turn the country back over to the Taliban and the and that means the in the al-Qaeda people I have been set up the bases again right."

" Is very very popular that's it that's why it's gonna be it's important to get this right. Com and make decision and that it wherever aren't saying that Petraeus not a crystal one more guy. And they want more time and we've all even at this -- then there is that the struggle."

" I mean this is like that. The domino theory and SE they know right I mean this you know this in there or is caught concrete evidence that they're gonna use these bases to attack us right."

" Yeah we do we had we had -- yet not a lot of it yeah yeah."

" So we had not eleven."

" We know the consequences. Of love of letting the these people take over the country again and I mean it -- again it's that we we don't keep you know again who cares about nation building who cares about Afghanistan period. If way if we didn't BA have. Have 3000 people killed in one day on the you -- on US soil."

" Nobody cared about that you only read it but it is good every in my friend to get it right. And and right now that the struggle and eat you know the call -- light. Now that we can't let the military just under one mission we understand. This has been because you going to be you missile not me and you this because this system between when here's this which is okay but just. It's all the hard work we're trying to get."

John McCain and Sarah Palin. Well Barack Obama and Joe Biden your answer --"

" Yeah and as I did it when it comes to Afghanistan and Iraq are clearly McCain. We clearly got it got as a match or muster -- when he got in doing differently -- I think you're -- you're -- quicker but you know I can't talk to you guys you got blow up -- to -- it difficult to talk to you that's."

" What is she would ever make in the calls -- what we do you're right about that but they you know the fact as. She would've -- make him a call on this anyway right."

" Nobody -- you're like this where Eric laid out I think I think and as far as the combat business. What we wouldn't comment at the comedy and claiming McCain could -- indicated he gets it -- came. He is gonna make that call quarter the director. -- problem probably guidance. -- it is it -- it is still three to five more years I think what they're gonna do is cut it happening is you're small numbers soldiers. They're gonna try just to change bad guys. And let the let the government and Carol now -- the Afghan government is imminent to collapse. Incompetent government. Project brother's cousin or brother president Afghanistan's bothers the second most awful drug -- warlord in the country."

And I -- don't regret -- already -- know -- you know what -- bacteria they're trying to stay above vice president when he gets up from one it looks himself the Mara. I guess he's more engaged and he was in Vietnam and he is now but you know why. Who who's gonna decide what kids are gonna dive for the next three years and you're right they got to bring back the draft because. You just put too many people into when he tours of duty. And I don't see any other way by the kernel. -- While I'd -- I'm not a stat but a lot of caution writers are Mata then change where they did not taught -- eject it poured on you or."

" I don't know what I don't know what to do but that's all I can tell you is that that you know isn't it amazing that that. That the situation is now whenever it is now worse than a there was a year. Ago after the the the surge in Iraq. And yet you -- there were few moon bats out on enough Friday. But it was a relative handful of people are are these are are the the candlelight vigils -- still going on I don't think they're going on most places are -- The V moon bats have totally lost interest. Yen in these wars I mean again a fuel home are still concerned the other code -- group. Cindy she can now lives in. Washington DC and she couldn't get or she couldn't get arrested in that town as they say. You know no one will cover because she still complaining about policy and now -- doesn't fit bear -- their agenda. It was it they they warned against the war they were against George Bush and that's what it was all about. And a you know it's. It's. It's unfortunate. That that we're still losing troops while they're just trying to figure out what to do women the reality is they bits he did say. Obama that he had come to a conclusion what to do that was last went terror -- late winter early spring. Then bad now he's asked for more time and we're supposed to not remember. That he. Said that he had a point. 18774694322. Karl your next with -- cargo ahead Carl."

" Reality. -- girl I I I I like the -- but he tried street crazy sometimes. First of all we would know Illinois cannot Roosevelt didn't does serve in the army either and they go Lincoln was -- President -- the civil war."

" And Lincoln were the militia though was he during the Blackhawks are."

" There would argue saying is that there are neither one -- motto this is it's eight -- it dates are prerequisites. Secondly did John Kerry get a purple city get a couple of purple largely went to Afghanistan you know that's true. I -- Busch -- purple heart into our two laden bronze stars that I I just heard that. Put -- said that you that you write about that people who protest of the war. It's a shame what kernel while he waited George Bush -- later George Bush all along. The only -- it. Area the issue is just shake kind of got messed up there's nothing get in because do you think -- military is gonna get better benefits. From -- Barack Obama border Bora or Republican even -- I it was a simple really upset with the Republicans myself. I don't understand -- word coming from on that. And I -- should be ashamed that he voted for Barack Obama being a serviceman. I mean I was in the service. I got drafted but that. I can't even imagine it him voting for Barack Obama -- rodeos about the."

" Well I I think I've got to tell him you know off the year just to stop mentioning and it's not necessary. To just keep beating you don't volunteer -- information it's usually dragged out of him kicking and screaming glory -- he volunteered -- today -- reminds me that guy he the the fullback on one of those -- NFL teams who they've got they've got a video of him smashing his head into the -- lockers I mean it's Craig good. You know. The first thing you do -- stop smashing your -- locker you know I mean did this measure headed the somebody did this somebody on the other team but don't don't keep it yourself you don't need to admit it. Any more you know you you admitted it's on the public record that's move on. Thanks for the call Carl mark your next what that's let's say too much are no -- I've said to be -- list I mean he knows all right. What I would do mark your next with how we cargo ahead mark."

" I gallery got a couple points going to make our first of all right so I'm not signed up five years ago military did two tours in Iraq. When it became evident that a Democrat would probably is elected to walk -- or did not too far -- Oreo a second term yeah. Yeah dock because that was pretty obvious to me. That the Republican going to be a much better commander in chief than Democrat and accept certainly grown to be true that they get the impeccable that. Obama thought it made -- that you are attacking a volatile I would like they have. Colonel on device I talked to a retired general who still all keep contact with some -- higher ups didn't and I got. And your opinion isn't that we should also. Have a Wallace put Britain just -- chased after the bad guys. And also all the more interesting point you also think that not we should allow them to -- grow poppy. What the she helped Hewitt they didn't do it puts album be here than what they know what you cannot -- that way we could get on the good side of."

" I know but that's it well but you understand how destabilizing that is to everybody that they sell the -- mark."

" I -- I'm not advocating it I'm just saying that there -- that there is a general out there that that is the Galilee got."

" I think there's been this there's been some. Indications of when the -- keeps using the word co opted described the Afghan government I mean don't you think that part of it did that's part of what he's talking about that -- of the where were. That are our so called allies are looking the other way you're Italy or maybe even get are probably getting paid off to -- I mean when he and what he's describes. Karzai's brother -- a warlord what does warlord mean over there from park but you know what it happy it's."

" Absolutely I I think it's a corrupt government then -- I'm not sure what the answer is but -- like -- said this general is up against the crystal."

" though it's okay it's it would be hard like it's like going into Saudi Arabia I guess it's -- the first thing we're gonna do was shut down the oilfields. Right. I mean that's how they made that's -- the make their money."

" Exactly yeah net debt that's a tough nut to crack."

" Yeah thanks for the thanks for the call mark 18774694322. Bob your next with how we cargo have Bob."

" He's so we say committee voted for Barack because McCain chose Palin. Hold a mirror up so that -- maybe you chose the guy who chose Biden. So wet wet wet and which leg at least getting out there that will let well educated at."
