Default The hearts-and-minds myth

We really need to learn from and be open to other cultures. I think this guy said it well:

"Mastering the languages, cultural nuances, beliefs and taboos that prevail in a theater of war, area of operations or tactical environment is vital to military success. It’s much easier to kill people you understand."

Doubt we have anything before Jan-1. We are, what, 20 days away ? Karzai is likely getting cheerleading from Iran "don't cave to the gringos" etc.

Ain't gonna happen folks.

Satpak,

It's funny how that is not headline news. So much for deadlines.

Below is the future:
Insurgents could quickly bounce back in Afghanistan - U.S. - Stripes
