Why use violence?

Since Canada started deploying soldiers in Afghanistan during the year 2002 to the present, there has been an increase of 108% of bombings. Instead of helping the Afghani rebuild, Canada is just causing more violence. I think the Canadian involvement in Afghanistan is a bit useless. This is my point of view for many reasons but I have one in particular. Violence! Even if the Canadians have a superior number of soldiers than the Taliban, they still know nothing about Afghanistan. The Taliban know where to hide from the Canadian soldiers. Each time the Canadian soldiers win a small battle against the Taliban, the Taliban will just come back stronger. Canada was supposed to bring peace, not violence, they were supposed to help the Afghanis rebuild their country and not to persuade the Taliban to destroy it even more. I think they should be a little less physical and a bit more active to rebuild Afghanistan. There are some Afghanis that say that life was better when the Americans and the Canadians weren't there. Even Jonathan Couturier (131st Canadian soldier who died in Afghanistan) said that Canadian military involvement in Afghanistan was a waste. In conclusion, I think that Canadian involvement in Afghanistan is useless because of the violence that Canada and the Taliban are doing.
