Amazing gesture from Afghanistan. One part of me says that we should refuse this offer because if you've ever been to Afghanistan you would plainly see that they need the money far more than we do. Another part of me says that we should accept it because to do otherwise would be an insult to them.

Nonetheless, I am deeply touched that this offer was even made.

We should accept it. The $$ will probably end up going back to them as some sort of aid assistance anyway.

But that's OK.

That is exactly right. To refuse this money would mean shame for them.
