They used the a-bomb to finish the WW2, so why change something that already works, drop it and be over with this futile war.

So national security should be comprimised for the sake of knowing. They arrested the military guy for leaking these documents and rightfully so. I don't think he was the only one,but he still should'nt have done that.

Makes you wonder why anyone wanted this war in the first place... Afghanistan doesn't have oil, the population is made up of a ton of different tribes that don't probably don't want to be united for or against anything, and the number of terrorists only increases when innocents are getting killed after NATO sticks its military dick in places that don't want it.

The only ones profiting out of this is the military-industrial complex. I guess that answers my question.

Nobody wanted this war,it was the terrorist that wanted this war. The U.S. did'nt start anything. Not every war is as sinister as you would believe.

If the terrorists wanted it, why did "we" give them the satisfaction?

Absolutely. Anything done by the government or its contractors should be publicly available unless it infringes the privacy of specific individuals (e.g. police witnesses). If it must be kept secret, the timing on release should be on the order of months after the incident, with no redaction and no exceptions to release.

So when terrorists attack your home soil,your supposed to sit back and do nothing. I'm talking about 9/11. I'd rather have the American military fight on there home turf,then have another 9/11. It's better to take the fight to them,rather then set back and do nothing.

What's "their home turf"? There are probably terrorists planning attacks against the US living in the US right now.

Do you still believe that killing innocent civilians and constantly disrespecting other nations' sovereignty with acts like these is the path to eliminate terrorism? Do you not see how it makes terrorists stronger rather than weaker?

Because it was an imported problem, and the two options were either to destroy it at its source (which seems a fool's errand) or to quarantine the problem (which is politically incorrect). Since Bush's first act after 9/11 was to run out to a mosque and proclaim Islam to be a religion of peace, it's easy to see why we ended up going with the first option.

If terrorists attack, let's kill loads of innocent civilians and act like we are the good people.
