    So much food for thought. But it's action that's needed. More troops just makes me sick. We were going to end this. The Taliban LIVE there, right? Kinda like a gang, and are going no where, because they live there, just like our gangs live in our cities.
    Sounds like law enforcement duties. How do you do that there, I don't know. But I know, it can be done if commitment is there, from Afghans, to building jails 1st, for law breaking Taliban. So public knows, they will be safe to build and rebuild their lives. The misery there must be unbarable(sp). Now were just going to pile on more if we come in shooting. They need help, jails, a system to deal with corruption-proof brings 20 years in jail. It's for the people, not Karzi.
    Not cronies. They must grow some balls, we can help. Police.

    Hi Christiane, Thank you for your wonderful reporting. I was heartened by George Packer's (and your) claim that our western presence in Afghanistan is viewed differently by Afghani's than previous "occupiers." I was leaning against the decision to send more troops. I'm not allowing myself to be too disheartened because, for the first time since Kennedy, I believe in my President's integrity. I respect that he took time to contemplate–gaining input from the best sources–before making this latest decision. I want to believe that our renewed commitment there will empower the country and contribute to a future of improved relations between West and East. I believe this question is of concern to many Americans: What are the chances of reform in the Karzai government, and will there be enough reform to support Obama's best intensions?

    Thanks for the advice on credit repair on this excellent site. Some tips i would tell people should be to give up this mentality that they may buy currently and fork out later. Being a society many of us tend to make this happen for many issues. This includes vacation trips, furniture, along with items we'd like. However, you'll want to separate your current wants out of the needs. If you are working to boost your credit score actually you need some trade-offs. For example you'll be able to shop online to save cash or you can look at second hand merchants instead of high-priced department stores pertaining to clothing. https://zyprexaolanzapine.com/#
