Most Afghans actually do know we’re more honest than the Taliban, but it matters to them who commits an act. They may well know that the Korans that were destroyed were desecrated first by the prisoners they were given to, but that’s not important because the prisoners were Muslims and the Americans who burned the books aren’t. They also know that Taliban attacks are often as bad as this attack was, but they didn’t think one of us would do something like this. So they know the enemy does things worse than what we do, but that does not matter as much because everyone expects the Taliban to behave in an evil fashion.

Yes, we’ve become as bad as the Taliban in their eyes, primarily because they know we’re capable of better behavior and we’re not meeting their expectations. How do you expect to turn that around by hiding away from them, like cowards who are afraid to face those who they’ve wronged?
