There is no "win": (1.) Most of the country is living in the 18th century. (2.) The Taliban would throw rocks at us if they didn't have guns. (3.) There many who support the US but there is no Afghanistan government, simply a loose coalition of fiefdoms all with different agendas. Thus there is no win, only nation-building and that'll likely take 100 years or more. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:339023 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
