Fair enough..... and sadly all too true. Many shady and 'right thinking' deals have amounted to nothing but suffering and dismay for the innocent folks in many countries.Even if our countries best intentions were implimented for thee good of all peoples we seem to have a history of backing the wrong horse.Afgahnistan is the forgotten war. It's never mentioned here in the US.I'll check out Galloway. Thanks.

Sorry about the length, but lastly: Check out a Galloway on The Hour, he explains well that it's all a matter of puppet regimes.I hate the f***ing Taliban, but we don't do any good being there with our own interests. All we do is radicalize the disenfranchised.

In fact more NATO troops are dying in Afghanistan so far than in Iraq.Make no mistake--they aren't there to bring "freedom". The U.S. had deals with the Taliban about constructing a gas pipeline long before they went rogue.The poor in Afghanistan are in fact getting poorer.That and things aren't what they seem to be when you fight an insurgency.Britain got pushed out, so did the Soviets, and it won't be any different for us if current trends continue.

I see.I'll hold you to that--not trying to be argumentative on this video. It gets me anxious but I'll try to be clear.They managed to fly kites before the Taliban ever came to be, and that was thanks to America's funding of those bastards to begin with. Believe me, the West is anything but consistent in it's historical position onm Afghanistan.That's also for those who can afford kites..and the major source of income right now is poppy growth which has been used to fund the insurgency.

I'm not trying to be argumementative, but it seems to me that if they couldn't do something as simple and innocent as fly a kite before, and now they can with the taliban gone or minimized, then at least something is going at least partially right.
