[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] [QUOTE][b]Jason: my response would be that they've had a peaceful election in Afghanistan, and the country is steadily improving. Rome wasn't built in a day. But waiting until we were completely done bringing one country up to modern industrialized standards before moving onto the next would slow the process down to a glacial pace.[/b][/QUOTE]Slow and steady wins the race: better to have a solid- independant- ally in the region than to endlessly maintain US military presence there to keep the new government from collapsing. Sure, we'd have had to wait for Iraq: not that it would have been a bad thing, it just would have stymied Bush's chance at what he felt would be an "easy victory". [/QB][/QUOTE]
