AfghaniNam?

Matthew Hoh raises some difficult questions about the war in Afghanistan in his resignation letter to the State Department. He asks why we remain in Afghanistan. Are our financial losses and human casualties worth anything? What strategic or tactical goals are we accomplishing? How has our offensive evolved to fight the evolved Al Qaeda? Does our occupation of a foreign land undermine our very purpose?

Like, Hoh, I think we need to rethink our approach.

The Way of Peace

Brian McLaren wrote a pretty good song about the way of peace. In light of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, it's pretty appropriate.

Victory?

I came across this on Scott Freeman's blog. How could have so many of our leaders been so wrong about the reasons for this war, the resources required for this war, the length of the war, and what victory would look like?
