undeniable signs of victory This seems to be the center of the problem - how does one define victory in the Afghan campaign? In Iraq, victory would be a stable political system sin Hussein and his imperial ambitions, which would not be Islamist, and not excessively anti-American. By such simple definition Iraq was a victory. Afghans, apparently, don't even know what it means to have a stable political system. One gets a feeling that they are strongly and irreparably fundamentalist and xenophobic. If so, then what is it that we want to achieve?
