Giving money to a military dictator who seized power through a coup & then re-wrote the constitution to give himself ultimate authority.

It's better than the alternative- Taliban with nukes.

"It's better than the alternative" was exactly the thinking what got us involved with Saddam, Bin Laden, Iran, etc over the past 20 years.

Hasn't worked too well in the past.

You would prefer the Taliban with nukes then I take it?

What's different about this situation and the situations that came before is there were no nukes involved.

What would you do to sort this situation out?
