At Times One Feels That What Is

To Leave Afghanistan As A Playground For Terrorists And Adventurers Was Simply Not Possible Anymore.

A Fly Cannot Go In Unless It Stops Somewhere; Therefore Weapons, Fuel, Food, Money Will Not Go To Afghanistan Unless The Neighbors Of Afghanistan Are Working, Are Cooperating, Either Being Themselves The Origin Or The Transit.

The Events Of September 11 And What Has Happened Since Have Made People Understand That Even A Small, Distant And Far Away Country Like Afghanistan Cannot Be Left To Break Up Into Anarchy And Chaos Without Consequences For The Whole World.

There Is Also A Natural And Very, Very Strong Empathy With The Underdog, With People Who Have Suffered, People Who Have Been Pushed Around By Foreigners In Particular, But Also By Their Own People.

In The Globalized World That Is Ours, Maybe We Are Moving Towards A Global Village, But That Global Village Brings In A Lot Of Different People, A Lot Of Different Ideas, Lots Of Different Backgrounds, Lots Of Different Aspirations.
