THe rebuilding of Afghanisatan for one thing........the total removal of the Taliban who are regaining some support, the removal of the tribal lords and the growing of poppies that translates into heroin sales which are higher now than ever before..........poppy farms are thriving.

Last year there were at least 12 training camps of Al Qaeda still operating in Afghanistan. They are probably expanding as Richard Clarke claimed.

Some Afghanis are claiming that things were better under the Soviets.

There is an increase in sexual abuse to young women and young men by the tribal factions.

Karzai is merely the mayor of Kabul and will be killed if he ventures out into the country. He is powerless as a leader..........the warlords are running everything and they are total animals. Lawlessness is rampant.
