If, maybe if, Karzai had ever lifted a finger to stop the desertions in his own army my outlook might have been different. However when his prisons have a revolving door for the drug trade and the Talibs, it's not likely he'll want to come down too hard on the farmfolk for deserting.<br /><br />At least 'behind the wire' we shouldn't have to spend too much time banging away on Afghans.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-19433653143541147062010-11-08T15:46:27.162-08:002010-11-08T15:46:27.162-08:00Regarding #3, Bob Rae of Rae's Plan to stay in...Regarding #3, Bob Rae of Rae's Plan to stay in Afghanistan to train, he is on P & P flogging his new book, Exporting Democracy, cuz Democracy so so powerful, cuz it's so amazing when people govern themselves, because Buy My Book, until we finally WIN and Export Democracy, yesiree bob.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-2281794274855905352010-11-08T14:21:15.594-08:002010-11-08T14:21:15.594-08:00Anon, I'd love to see that.Anon, I'd love to see that.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-43529715224455305912010-11-08T14:03:29.083-08:002010-11-08T14:03:29.083-08:00Somewhere in the CBC archives is a year end quiz s...Somewhere in the CBC archives is a year end quiz sort of show, a year end wrap up of The Journal with Pam and Peter Mansbridge. It was like trivial pursuit over the news stories of the previous year. Mansbridge knew everything, and Wallin knew nothing. Then, in the new year, she was no longer there. I always thought she had been turfed for showing all of Canada that all she had been doing was reading the news, and didn't actually understand a word of it. Wish we could find that episode of The Journal.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
