More on Afghanistan

On November 5, 2009 NPR's "All Things Considered" aired 11 segments about our war in Afghanistan.

As a commenter mentioned in a letter to the show (listen to it here, 8th segment from the top), tactics based on peace and Gandhi are not even considered as an option in the debate about what's next for us in Afghanistan. Even on a show of reasonable people like "All Things Considered".
I feel sad and discouraged about that.
