Great reads on how the US military fucked up in Afghanistan: The Other Afghan Women. How the U.S. Created the Afghan War—and Then Lost It
Related: Britain's dirty secret, how, post WWII in Greece, Britain armed the Nazi sympathizers to kill partisans who also happened to self-describe as Communists, and how that's led to the far right revival in Greece today.

My tweet about my Afghanistan reading has a link to “No Good Men Among The Living” which I recommend to folks to want to know more about how the US screwed the pooch over there.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
