I prefer to read them later-- when i need to know.<br /><br />We might've had one chance in Afghanistan (and I emphasize might) if when Bush got us in there, he'd let the military get bin Laden instead of wanting him to get away and have an excuse to continue the war. I think maybe when the soldiers first got there, the Afghani people might've trusted us and we could have ended the Taliban but it never was what Bush wanted. He wanted Iraq and he didn't in the end finish either. And Afghanistan always was iffy even then as it's mountainous and tribal. Nobody has really succeeded in changing or taking it over. It's sad though as if the people then could have been convinced to join the modern world for their women especially, maybe iit'd have been a foot in the door. As it is, it's another loss with lives being blown up and for what!
