"Former deputy UN envoy to Afghanistan Peter Galbraith said the recent U.S. surge of 30,000 troops into the country to bolster the counter-insurgency strategy also requires reliable local partners, such as a competent army and police force. Galbraith said the Afghan army is not yet ready to function on its own and he outright dismissed Afghan police as "an utter disaster," while pointing out that President Hamid Karzai's government lacks legitimacy because of fraudulent elections and ongoing corruption allegations."
Yes the police are a bunch of idiots! He says the Afghan Army is not yet ready to function on its own! We have been in this arsehole of a country for 9 years and they are not capable of leading a section attack because half the section is high on hash or whatever...
I really try to like our involvement in this country, but deep down and not so much I could really not miss if this country disolved into the red hot magma.
