127: Bucky Rants on 9/11
Do you remember a few weeks ago when I told you I was going to change my podcast format to a rant, and that nothing was off-limits? If you didn't believe me before, maybe you will now.
What happened on 9/11/2000 was a tragedy. It was the last thing that actually brought us all together as a country and it's sad that it took a tragedy of this scope to do that. The tragedy is not what I'm ranting on, it's what brought us to this tragedy and what we've done, or more to the point NOT done about it since then. The Taliban attacked us because they could. The military exists to protect us all but to do that when you go to war, you have to be in it to win it. As powerful as the U.S. military is, the Taliban knew the politicians will never let them really do their job. They exist to kill people and break shit because that's the best way to defend our country. If the politicians won't let the military kill people who want to kill us, and break shit that they need to try to kill us, they are going to keep trying to kill us because they know they can get away with it without repercussions.
We were stuck in Afghanistan for 20 years because no president would let the military break shit over there. We had 2 Republican and 2 Democratic presidents during that time, so this isn't a liberal problem, this is a political problem. Politicians don't have the balls to do what needs to be done, so instead, we kept whittling away at the Taliban while it continued to thrive. We were mowing the lawn and couldn't figure out why the grass kept growing. It was because we needed to burn it to the ground, right down to the roots, but no one had the guts to do that so it just kept on growing. I hope we never have to see another tragedy like 9/11, but if we don't change our tactics against people who want to kill us, I think it's only a matter of time.
