Will Nato win the peace in Afghanistan? It appears to me that it all goes well in the minds of Nato as long as the ruling government in Afghanistan is amiable towards all Nato strategies. Afghanistan has a history of doing just that, doing what invaders want them to do, but does this really serve the people of Afghanistan well? Now Nato, specifically Canada, believes that 1000 more soldiers will make a big difference in achieving their goals of reconstruction and fighting off terrorists. Personally I don't even think Nato knows exactly who their enemy is and as far as reconstruction goes.....I heard yesterday on the news about how the Canadians were supervising the construction of a road, the commentator for Nato suggested that the work is being done mostly by hard labour instead of using the technology and machinery developed to build roads quickly as we use here in north America. How foolish is that? Why spend all that hard work and time building a road when it could be done in less than half the time and other projects could be initiated? Does Nato really think this hard labour will benifit people who have lived lives so difficult that we here could never imagine? What lesson are they teaching? What goals are they achieving by not putting forth a wiser plan?
I just picture a 1000 troops in scarborough to deal with unrest and in that perspective I don't see this number accomplishing much.
