I'm over here, I'd rather you didn't and they didn't. What we really need in Afghanistan is a way for the rest of the world to come up with the aid most of them promised. We're establishing an agriculture program but it takes time. The region is very large, mountainous and difficult to work in. Their farmers could make it but they're really looking for the most profitable crops to grow in the shortest amount of time. In the short term, it's going to be a challenge but in time, if they stay on their present course, we will see reforms.
IF WE ARE GOING TO ALLOWW AFGANS TO GROW POPPYS, WHY NOT OUR OWN FARMERS..???
AFTER ALL--CHARITY--BEGINS AT HOME...
LOOK AT ALL THE DRUG RUNNERS WE COULD ELIMINATE...
