It’s Off to Aghanistan we go!

Good morning, Netizens...

In today's David Horsey cartoon, he takes a long look at Richard Holbrooke, President Obama's special representative to Aghanistan and Pakistan. Holbrooke, is a top-ranking diplomat, magazine editor, author, professor, Peace Corps official, and investment banker to name a few of the posts Holbrooke has held.

However, the agenda of the Afghani and Pakistani tribal members, is not entirely clear to most Americans. Hence it may be possible that we are marching into a hornet's nest, as Horsey's cartoon suggests.

Are we substituting an unwinnable war in Iraq for one in Afghanistan? One never knows for a certainty about such things, do we?
