There is no audio for this submission Poetry: AFGHANISTAN 22-05-2006 - by Simon   (77 words) To keep fighting an unwinnable war so as not to "dishonour" the poor schmucks (on our side) who've already been killed in it has always sounded weird to me, like doubling your bets each time you lose, but it seems to convince others. Our first female soldier was killed in the war So now we must not cut and run. Remember what she was fighting for: More killing, more killed, and more and more— Being shot at is so much fun.

He has been out there for 4 months, and has doubtless seen many horrors. He was not one of the 'schmucks' thank God. The war is so futile, and yes, unwinnable. I applaud your sentiments sir! rated 10 Please Login or register to post comments
