Afghan lives and freedom sucked into U.S. quagmire

Afghanistan:
30 years of war; a decade of drought; a fraudulent election and
government rife with corruption; a murderous Taliban army growing in
technical sophistication and strength; eight years of a U.S. occupying
army whose purpose has always been U.S. self-interest. This is the
reality that is the daily life of Afghans.

Afghan
lives are the last thing considered in all the wrangling in the U.S.
around the fraud-ridden election, and Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal's
assessment of the U.S. war effort.
