This article is so dumb, its astonishing!

This sort of thing occurred in Vietnam as well, and in Iran where even high level US company employees, just to keep a job, did not express their true feelings about the Shah until the US was on its way out! I recall that there is even a clip on this "phenomenon" in a movie about Ross Perot in Iran where a top aide in Perot's company hates the Shah and the US.

What the attack by an Afgani policeman shows is that ordinary, mainstream, working people in Afghanistan are willing to risk everything to hit us, either that or they are just flat out insane angry on a scale this great.

Frankly, this article is just another neocon wank.
