I want the Afghan people to live in a free and stable democracy, but considering that we've spent 10 years sending our children over there to try and help them, and they quite obviously don't want our help, excuse me if I don't give a flying rats ass anymore.
So we can't possibly care about people we've never met, but you can care about all of "our children" in the Canadian forces who you've never met? Or did you father all of the Canadian troops that are over there?
