1. Iraq is more important than Afghanistan 2. Iraq will be easier than Afghanistan - it has a history as a functioning nation-state, which Afghanistan singularly does not. 3. We're doing more in Afghanistan than you seem to think we're doing. The Karzai government is still standing, after all, and we just fought a fairly major battle there to suppress one of the warlords. Neither of those things would be happening without active and continual American support. Gautam __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful.
