NP - The making of a hawk

[David Morris]

Bingo, jbor!  For Chomsky and co. the US can do nothing good.  This 
criticism that religious repression in Afghanistan will continue, only to a 
lesser degree, is beyond the point.  The US mission was not the liberation 
of Afghanistan, though that has been a side benefit (maybe not so under 
certain warlords' rule - the present government body is only interim).  Our 
mission there was self-protection by way of dismantling a terrorist 
stronghold dedicated to our destruction.  That mission is not complete, but 
it has been more successful than C & co. would have liked.
