Rhetoric vs reality?
Nice try. Can you prove that they have had everything they needed, particualrly a good plan from above, and a workable strategy for long term stability?

We've set Afghanistan on the backburner rebuilding wise. It's a strategic postwar blunder. Pulling it out of the dark ages is a way to win hearts and minds, and give the people something to support, rather then the Taliban. We've had similar problems in Iraq. We can deliver militarily, but have not shown the follow through in other aspects. It's a leadership problem, right at the top.
