    The problem with most projects in Afghanistan is that their success is prejudged by the amount of money pumped into them. I opened Shams London Academy, Kabul's first private school, nearly 2 years ago, entirely funded by a local construction company. It's never had a mention in the international media.

    Hi
    I don't really think that capturing Bin Ladin will stop his followers waging war against America .
    this war is actually fueled by deep resentment towards America throughout the Muslim World .
    Most Muslims think that the American Government is just hypocrite with double standards ,saying some thing but doing the contrary .
    I don't really think this war can be soon brought to an end .
    I am afraid that this Afgan war will just mean more bloodshed for the Afgan civilians .

    Hi. I understand that more troops are needed on the ground, but what about diplomacy?
    I mean, I've heard comments that if Pakistan and India don't solve their differences this mess will continue no matter how many troops we send.
    Do you think that Pakistan and India are waging some sort of "cold war" like the US and Russia before the 90's? and if they are, do you think we could see this happen in other underdeveloped middle eastern countries?
    Hope to hear answers. Thanks for the time :)
