Well, "run" may have been a poor choice of words, I was trying to keep things concise so as to fit into the poll entries for clarity. For a certainty, Afghanistan has historically chafed whenever a non-Afghani was in charge (and most of the time one of their own was in charge as well).

I did not mean run in the sense of "satrapy," instead I meant to convey the concept of the establishment of fundamentalist Islamic states with like-minded international stances to Iran -- which would be a natural source of influence based on geography alone.
