More On USAID's Twisted Panties
Edited on Tue Oct-26-10 06:13 AM by unhappycamper
unhappycamper note: Since the ‘Pentagon’ (Righthaven LLC? Gannett?) has ‘requested’ that I only post one paragraph from articles on Army Times, and Airforce Times, I’ve decided to give ya’ll an unhappycamper summary of the article and a link to the OP. To keep in that same (new) tradition, I will also do the same for articles on Navy Times, Marine Corps Times, stripes.com and military.com.To keep in that same (new) tradition, I will also do the same for for articles on Navy Times, Marine Corps Times, stripes.com and military.com.

To read the article in the military's own words, you will need to click the link.

Read all about Fair Use here. It sure is beginning to smell like fascism.

unhappycamper summary of this article: I had posted this thread yesterday about this issue: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x9382713

Let's think about this for a moment. Our guy, Karzai, is telling the US too bad about those reconstruction projects..

Karzai takes bags o cash from Iran.

And the United States is paying over a $100 billion dollars a year for this?




Afghan president will disband private guards
By Katharine Houreld - The Associated Press
Posted : Tuesday Oct 26, 2010 5:25:25 EDT

If President Hamid Karzai moves ahead with the plan to replace private guards with 30,000 to 40,000 Afghan troops by the end of the year, it could result in the shutdown of hundreds of millions of dollars in development projects because international organizations don't trust Afghan forces to protect their workers.
