Charles Krauthammer wonders why the legacy media has not taken more notice of our success in Afghanistan. The legacy media warned that Afghanistan had been the death Nell to British and Soviet empires. Yet in two month, we eradicated the Taliban and now they just swore in their new freely elected president.
Where is the hoopla?
He ends with this.
It also means that against all expectations, Afghanistan is the first graduate of the Bush Doctrine of spreading democracy in rather hostile places. We should take a moment to celebrate a remarkable success that had long seemed so improbable.Posted by Ted at December 10, 2004 9:55 PM
