Don't withdraw the troops. To do so plays into the hands of the bad guys. Have you forgotten why we conquered that country? Wont bin Laden be back there the day after we leave?

Roll a heavily armed US convoy down main street, Kabul, right to the jail where Abdul Rahman is being held & take him to safety, OUT of Afghanistan. In addition, tell Karzai the money is TOTALLY cut off til the constitution is changed, & OBTW, here is the list of changes.

If the Afghanis don't like it, declare martial law, throw out the current government & constitution, & tell them we will occupy their country until they learn to respect human rights - 100 years if necessary.

IMO, the US is the military occupier of a conquered country & the current gov't serves at the pleasure of the US, & if the US is displeased, out it goes.

Bush says he wants to instill democracy in these countries. Well, respect & protection of basic human rights is fundamental to democracy, & MUST be instilled in the people PRIOR to the formation of a democracy. I hope the US learns from this when installing the new gov'ts of Syria & Iran in the near future. Otherwise, why bother?
