I think we are getting really inaccurate information about what is going on in Afghanistan. I do believe that Karzai is a U.S. puppet president. There was an attempt to assassinate him that you may recall. He survived it, but is now simply surrounded by security forces to protect him. How is it clear the U.S. "cause" in Afghanistan has been set back by the Newsweek article? General Myers has said that this was not the reason for the riots: Afghan Riots Not Tied to Report on Quran Handling, General Says The chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff says a report from Afghanistan suggests that rioting in Jalalabad on May 11 was not necessarily connected to press reports that the Quran might have been desecrated in the presence of Muslim prisoners held in U.S. custody at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. ... Air Force General Richard Myers told reporters at the Pentagon May 12 that he has been told that the Jalalabad, Afghanistan, rioting was related more to the ongoing political reconciliation process in Afghanistan than anything else. -- From U.S. State Dept.
