I'm no Curtis LeMay, but someone did say if you want to win the hearts and minds of the Afghan people, bomb them with FOOD, not explosives.
Huh? In the past day I have seen pictures of Afghan refugees amassed near their borders. One was a young man sleeping on hundreds of sacks of rice clearly marked 'GIFT OF JAPAN'. Another showed an Aghani woman sitting on a can of vegetable (cooking) oil, labeled 'GIFT OF U.S.'. Yet this country has the means to arm practically every loyalist (and his kid) with an assault rifle?!
Our quarrel is not with the innocents. But the Taliban is something different. This is undoubtedly the most repressive regime since Saddam, Pol Pot, Stalin, Hitler, the list goes on and on.
I am going to post a link that should convince you of who we're dealing with here. WARNING! It a very disturbing video of an Afghan woman being executed for the (alleged) crime of adultery. Do not click it if you are faint of heart.
