Yes but how are those ideals going to take hold? How would you implement a plan to get them taking hold? How can a foreign occupying power force these ideals to take hold? Can't you see that the occupied population is going to resist these ideals partly because a foreign power is imposing/advocating them? |

Didn't I just say something like that back on page one? Anyway that's a side issue. The U.S. went into Afghanistan to get the Taliban for supporting AQ, not for women's rights. To try and make it ALL about women's rights is misleading and illogical. You have to include all the factors (including the main one) otherwise it is not a discussion worth having. |
They didn't go into Afghanistan for women's rights. But they pretended it was a factor, and that it would be one of the main benefits to the Afghanis. And a lot of people went along with that. Surprisingly. |
