This morning's New York Times magazine has the first of a two part series by Elizabeth Rubin on Afghanistan. It is well worth reading. It is the best article I've read so far about the complex situation on the ground that we've gotten ourselves into.
The simple-minded blustering of Harper, MacKay and Hillier seems even more ridiculous in light of the difficulties pointed out by this first part of the series at the street level in Afghanistan.
