Yeah, that was sort of my point, Sunni.
One of the things that Americans need to learn to accept is that not everyone wants to be just like Americans.
Having spent my entire life living with Americans, and now witnessing the unraveling of what was once the greatest society on earth, I can't say I really blame them, either.
Now based on what I have learned about the Taliban, I know damned sure I don't want to live under their rule, but then too, I am not an Afghani who is especially comfortable living in an Islamic theocracy.
Sadly the Taliban made the mistake of harboring and protecting Al-Quada post 9-11.
That was a terrible mistake for which the Taliban has paid a terrible price.
