The Unanswered Question in Afghanistan Is, Why?
Jim Hightower, Truthout: 'So why have two presidents and a decade of Congress dumped so many lives and so much money into a country that poses no threat to us? Afghanistan is an impoverished, anarchic, largely illiterate land that s split into ancient tribal factions and innumerable fiefdoms controlled by rival warlords. They have no desire or ability to attack us, some 8,000 miles away. The only reason we are given for being in Afghanistan is that we must keep the al-Qaeda terrorists network from establishing bases there.'
