    Default Re: Understanding Afghanistan enough to leave

    has it ever occurred to anyone that some nationalities (i.e. Iraq, Afghanistan) do best under absolute dictatorships like the Taliban had?
    maybe not best in terms of terror inflicted on the populace, but im pretty sure more have died while trying to create democracies than under the dictatorships.
    now, im not saying taking out Saddam or the taliban wasnt a good idea, but definitely the strategy has to be rethought.
