WOW! C2, Thanks for sending that simply amazing link of pictures by David Guttenfelder.

What a visual those pictures are. A God Forsaken Land of Contrasts.

Every US person who has any government handouts should be taken to Afghanistan to know what poor looks like. We here in this country have such opportunity, talent and promise.

Each person in our US House and the US Senate should have to live in these circumstances for at least 3 months as part of their admittance to the US Congress. Maybe then they would know why we are at war. They would see first hand what the Taliban do to their own people.

Welcome back, BTW!

When I think of Afghanistan, I think of these things:

Buddhas of Bamyan
