Right on, Mr. Fish.

The “change you can believe in” wasn’t supposed to be a simple change of venue.

Today, the last three Canadian soldiers to be killed in Afghanistan will return to be buried here. That makes the number 100 now.

And what does the increasingly militaristic government of Canada do? It’s sending 250 more in an “air arm”, to fly helicopters and man aerial drones.

More targets, more dead civilians, more new enemies filled with hate for the occupiers.

Just plain stupid.

We’d be better served if Mr. Fish’s ‘Obama scalpels’ cut thru Wall Street, law firms, hospital offices, and corporate boardrooms of America rather than Afghanistan.
