Afghanistan

 What has been happening in Afghanistan probably has parallels with Vietnam in many ways. Fortunately Vietnam recovered from those events and became a thriving economy. I have visited the country, and found it very vibrant.

Hope that something good comes out eventually for the sake of the common people in Afghanistan. Even if they recover, it may take a few years or decades. Hope for the best.

In general, meddling in countries which are so far away, makes little sense. But then, is anyone listening?
