re: #114 The Shadow Do
I think there is. Take the ground, hold it, train up the locals and provide them services. That is all a very tall order needing a hell of a lot of work and time. I doubt we are currently up for it though. And this will lead to more war, more often, more places.
Afghanistan is a Gordian Knotā¦and there is no Alexander in sight (certainly not in the US or UK).
