What Is It Good For?
There are no "Taliban" distinct from the Pashtun as a whole. So we are indeed at war with the schoolchildren, with the Police, with the wedding parties, with the pregnant women, with the deaf and dumb, with all of them. That is why we should not be at war at all in Afghanistan, a country wholly unrelated to the 9/11 attacks from Saudi Arabia.

ReplyDeleteNo we're not. Don't be silly.
We are, and we are acting accordingly. Under the circumstances, we cannot not be. So we must change the circumstances. We must get out.
