Re: In defence of NATO in Afghanistan (none / 0)

If you don't know the "Afhanistan problem" yet after everything that's been written about it and NATO's involvement in Afghanistan, I'm afraid no definition can help.

Afew's real point may be (none / 0)

that you know nothing about Afghanistan.

What are its problems?

The things you are hinting are problems only seem that way from the Pentagon.

The Afghani view is different.

Totally.

The Fates are kind.

Re: Afew's real point may be (none / 0)

I am not from the Pentagon and I don't care what the Pentagon says. I am a European and the problems that I'm "hinting" are from an ordinary European perspective. I've only been to Kabul once (a couple of years ago) and do realize that as a non-Afghani, my views may not be in sync with those of the Afghan population but if you are an Afghani and have a different view, then let's have it.
