What I found most interesting in that article was that they say this

" Meanwhile, more than a year and a half after the fall of the Taliban, the long-suffering people are still waiting for the "new Afghanistan" promised by President Bush."

after pointing out this

" BY targeting civilian aid workers, ... their presence in the country is unwelcome."

and this

"They let off the Afghan workers after warning them that they would be shot if they continued working with international aid agencies."

What do they expect? They kill off the Western civilian aid workers, and the Afghanis who are assisting them, and then they complain that the "new Afghanistan" is taking too long. Stupid.
