but Mr. Bush tell them [NA] not to [invade Kabul]"

i understand that bush is trying to pacify certain moslem countries. i also understand that franks is bombing along the road to kabul. fortunately, bush does not have authority over the NA, so they should do as they deem appropriate.

most times that a football team plays prevent defense it gets scored upon. NA -- onward to kabul!

Why is Bush warning the N.A. off Kabul? Something I've wondered for days - is Kabul reserved for another occupation force? It appears many Talicowards are headed south for Kandahar. Will a "neutral" muslim occupation force move into Kabul? Say Turks and Pakistanis?

Frankly, your statement is ignorant. It reveals a complete cluelessness concerning the U.S.'s interests in this region. It will do us no good to leave Afghanistan in a power-vacuum, which will quickly be filled by jerk-offs just as bad, just as ruthless and just as anti-American as the Taliban.

And that, in turn, will leave Afghanistan a fertile ground for continuing terrorist operations. Such corrupt governments as typically ensconce themselves in places like Afghanistan or Lebanon don't care who their "friends" are as long as they bring cash.

That's how al-Qaeda ended up there in the first place. Pay attention.
