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.

A very short paper I recommend.

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
