You've gotta wait for the pashtun mind to catch up. Takes years.

#2 Dron,
If you had his ear, what would you recommend to OrangeMan regarding Afghanistan?

#3 That's easy. I'd recommend a complete pull out. I think he understands too. The Afghans won't let you leave.

Much of the third world believes the US is obliged to spend its inordinate amount of moolah on them, while they stab each other to get at it. Another trillion dollars ? It'll stay the same grey, brown wasteland full of death at every corner, ass-raped little boys growing into retards with RPGs, and hopeful 'educated moderates' trying to superimpose western style democracy on an Asian society.

Not just me, the entire integrated defence network would advise that if they were honest. It would be in India's selfish interest of course if you remained and wasted yourselves there, maintaining a presence on Pak's shoulder too. Pak would like nothing better than for you to leave, for reasons of their own of course.
