The Ruskies, Brits and countless other countries no doubt couldn’t beat the tribes in Afghanistan. What makes anyone believe that we (NATO) can.

I als remember the depressing thought I had on hearing it: What do they do after they have graduated, especially the girls?

Does anyone know what this entails, how it could be done, and how long it would take? Geo,
