It's good to see the Turks there. It probably soothes the locals some to have Muslim (well, sort of) peacekeepers instead of more evil Americans to shoot at. If it cost us a few bucks to get them there then hey, what the heck. Just call it a NATO training exercise or something similar to keep the accountants happy.

The Afghans, after fighting side by side with the US, overwhelmingly elected Karzai. I don't think they assume Americans are evil ;)
