A concerned reader passed this along. Gateway Pundit posted commentary and a video link of Taliban savages flogging a girl in public. I recommend viewing this disturbing video. While watching, one can only dream of a bunch of U.S. Marines bursting in to confront these savages man to man. Please watch the video on Gateway Pundit -- Where Hope Finally Made a Comeback -- and spread the link far and wide.

I really love Michael Yon On-Line Magazine!
I have been a regular reader from the very beginning. I have donated, I've followed and I have forwarded many a copy of his articles and even recruited many of your new readers.
But, your new website causes me concern. I have a difficult time even finding "Michael's dispatches", often I click on an article and it redirects me to a third party article... I
At any rate, who cares? Certainly not the women's and gay advocacy groups in the US. Just us right wingers trying to let people know what's coming to a mosque near them.
The silence is deafening!

It takes time to change attitudes. This backward village obviously believes this is acceptable behavior. But as the civilized world continues to weigh in with its opinions, cultures will change.
millions of fundamentalist savages stuck in the 1500's.....
with modern weaponry....
....how can anyone recommend that we turn away?
God bless the volunteers who are taking on these savages directly, especially the American, English and Canadian troops (who shoulder most of the load). They will always have my full support.
Worst is that Our young American Men and Women are being sent there to resolve problems that I'm sure we have little influence on. I'm not sure who assigned America to be responsable for being the police for the world, but certain activities and injustices should be a world wide matter and should be the responsability of the United Nations to take action against these type of activities against the rights of all of us as human beings.
I pray that we will soon bring our troops home and find a better way to deal with what is happening in that part of the world. We have enough of our own problems right here. People are out of work and starving. We have to stop the financial bleeding and not use our man power to deal with what is wrong. I do feel that there should more effective ways to force cooperation with countries that do not abide by humanitarian standards. It would help if we had the right sanctions in place and stop providing funding and amunition to countries with the wrong intentions. I hope that we'll find a better way.
I hope that these people will one day evolve into a more civilized nation that can be respected. It is obvious that they have a long way to go. How sad.

Video like this gets Americans worked up. Only they get as cold as fast as they get hot. Remember the video of the staring kids in Somalia in 1992 and the demand to do something and the results.
Reality is this takes place in a lot more places other than Afghanistan and Pakistan. And if the American people want to stop it, it will require something that American's don't want or will support. A return to the days when the US Army was over 20 divisions. Because that is what it will require. Stealth fighters and laser bombs will not stop it. Only boots on the ground. Starting with a seaborne invasion to take Karachi, Pakistan and securing the highway from Karachi to Kabul.
As they saying goes: Be careful what you wish for. Yes it will make us feel good for a while when we show these thugs what happens to men who beat women. But what happens when those same women in Afghanistan and Pakistan willingly hide suicide vests under those cloth tents they walk around in?

NOTE. What Americans need to do is read about the Greek War of Independence and the American public's reaction to it and the reaction of its elected officials in Washington, DC.
