Oh Snap!
I have been a supporter of the War on Terror since its inception. I studied enough world history to know that what we are going through has been repeated time and again and it will not stop until we put a stake through the heart of darkness that is false Islam.
That being said, sometimes, the events of war have unfortunate repercussions.

Troops find 2.5 tons of marijuana in Afghan school
US and Afghan troops destroyed 2.5 tons of marijuana they found in an abandoned school in volatile southern Afghanistan, the US military said Sunday.
The massive drugs stash was uncovered on Saturday during a joint US-Afghan operation against Taliban rebels in the Arghistan district of Kandahar province, spokesman US Colonel Greg Julian told AFP.
"Afghan and coalition troops found and destroyed two-and-a-half tons of marijuana in a school in southern Afghanistan," Julian said.
I believe the President-Elect and I both give a little 'sigh' when we read this news...
