Afghanistan's job

Afghanistan has to demonstrate peacefully to the world time and again that it can manage its own affairs. It is the very absence of peace that allows foreign powers to control it. Some people would find more satisfaction in getting some kind of military victory. But peaceful means are more popular and always works if one keeps track of human history. The only people who can be free and deserves to be free are people who can look beyond aggression and seek goals and means to reach the goals. Luckily humanity is at a stage that nations have to give explanations for their actions however lame it may be. A couple of centuries back we were not that civilized. I say regular people do not have such civilized situations in their daily lives and are faced with "I said so" situations more than explanations.
