The thing is though: whose country is it?
The people who want live quietly going about their everyday lives or those who wish to subjugate the population to their medieval beliefs taken from a story someone wrote a few centuries back?

I take your point entirely about telling foreign powers to keep their armies out of it but what are normal Afghans to do?

I think the Afghan people beg to differ.

I think you’re right.

Also the war on drugs, the war on poverty, the war on educational disadvantage, and the
