HILARIOUS! It is so obvious that ALL this is our fault, Bush's fault, and apparently soon to be Obama's fault, that all one can do is LAUGH at such articles.

What I find really interesting is that Abdullah, someone who reflects the other part of the elite in Afghanistan, the one that is much more tolerant of women's rights, just simply withdrew.

And by the way, Mr. Hitchens, didn't you claim back when we debated going in there that it was just a police action and we'd go in, get Bin Ladin and get right out? The Taliban was just something in our way, you claimed.

So are you a lier or fool, which is it?
