You slam the U.S. for installing Karzai and offer up an alternative that is unworkable, imo. I have doctor friends from Afghanistan, and they laugh at your suggestion that a "REAL democratic process without outside intervention" is possible. Sure oil is in the equation, but to say it's all oil is too simplistic. My afghan friends, here since the soviet occupation, who correspond with friends and mothers, dads being all dead, are very pleased with changes they see happening. Currently, most of Afghanistan is a lawless place, to believe a free and democratic election could happen their today borders on the utterly ridiculous.
