Tim; Your example of .......Afghanistan infrastructure improved......that you suggest has over a million hits must be from regular google and not google news - which is pretty meaningless as every right wing propaganda outfit can put anything they want and it gets picked up on the web hits. Under Google news, putting your example in quotes, produced ZERO hits. So I took off the quotes and got 75 hits - I suggest you check them out. You obviously are cherry picking and not getting a true picture of conditions in Afghanistan. Here is one of the most relevant of the first 75 hits; But if the situation is changing at all, it is for the worse time.com This is a great read and talks at length about the power production in Afghanistan. But the one thing that stands out is that the people don't trust us. That the security problem trumps all others........ steve
