The Taliban has claimed responsibility for the suicide bomb that was detonated outside the entrance to a U.S. military base in Afghanistan as Vice-President Dick Cheney conducted a surprise visit of the facility. The blast killed 23, however the V.P. was not injured.
The blast occured as Cheney was preparing to fly to Kabul for talks with Afghan President Hamid Karzai on how to defeat the Taliban and their Al-Qaeda allies.
So, let me get this straight...the two Afghan groups most responsible for 9/11 have been able to re-group in the four years since we took that unfortunate and unnecessary turn into Iraq; they have now come frightenly close to offing the Vice-President of the United States...
And the President wants our armed forces to prepare for an attack on Iran?
What is wrong with these people!!?
