the rix mix

It's a land-locked assemblage of medieval tribes, opium growers, & thug warlord bosses. It's not a jig saw puzzle with pieces that fit. What happens there is the shared responsibility of every nation with a stake in the region's stability. Which includes China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, India, & all of Europe. Pakistan, an unstable nation, has a nuclear arsenal. Our own country is falling apart - we're waiting for the next bridge collapse. Yet we're fighting the war, attempting the nation-building, propping up the criminals, & paying for the futile effort. Why? I don't think I'm going to be satisfied with President Obama's plan & rationale. We shall see.
