Obama sends marines to suppress population of southern Afghanistan
Link: http://www.wsws.org/articles/2009/jul2009/afgh-j04.shtml
The Obama administration has ordered the 2nd Marine Expeditionary Brigade (2 MEB) into a potentially bloody offensive in the southern province of Helmand. The objective is the suppression of the ethnic Pashtun population, which is overwhelmingly hostile to the seven-and-a-half year US and NATO occupation of the country and rejects the legitimacy of the Afghan puppet government headed by President Hamid Karzai. -Change for the worse...and people in Afghanistan didn't even elect this monster.
