Colin Powell agrees with Obama...says greatest risk in Afghanistan not Iraq
Posted by Max Bergmann

Former Secretary of State Colin Powell last week said the risks in Afghanistan are greater than in Iraq. “If we have provided a level of security in Iraq with our troops – those are remaining as well as the improving Iraqi forces, shift your attention, shift your hard power attention and your soft power attention to Afghanistan, because I think the risks in Afghanistan almost outweigh the risks we’ve faced in last few years in Iraq.”

One of the basic Michael jordan shoes for sale details that you need to know Michael Jordan shoes is that you will find that with Air Jordan shoes , ALL of them are manufactured outside of the United States. There is NO genuine manufacturing plant within the United States and any store that says they are selling genuine USA made air Jordan shoes are in fact selling you a knock off and if you purchase from a business cheap Jordan shoes that says this they will in fact scamming YOU.

My friend and I were just arguing about the topic you referred to in your blog post and apparently, I am the winner of the argument! Thank you for clearing it out.

Where's my tax dollar go??

Too bad the war in Afghanistan and the situation in Pakistan have yet to be mentioned at this convention. And isn't that quite a swipe at George Bush?

Nice, amusing article. Much of the readers don't think that every sites must have comments part. Contrarily I consider that reader comments specify a blog. Briefly

I don't know how to receive my responce. Waiting for your reply, tks!
