Scheer Nonsense
According to Robert Scheer, in the last 20 years we’ve done nothing right in Afghanistan (Commentary, Nov. 27). Let’s see, in that time the Soviet Union was kicked out and eventually collapsed, ending the Cold War, the Taliban has been defeated, Osama bin Laden and terrorists everywhere are on the run, Saddam Hussein is shaking in his boots and the Afghans are free to set up whatever government they want. Of course, if they choose anything less than a Jeffersonian democracy, complete with a Bill of Rights, it will be our fault.
