...Kabul had been patrolled successfully by thousands of NATO peacekeepers until riots five weeks ago, which shone a spotlight on the limitations of the fledgling Afghan security forces. The riots, which killed at least a dozen, were sparked by the crash of an American convoy into a crowd of civilians. "The speed with which the government lost control of the city and rampaging demonstrators were able to take over the streets signalled to the Taliban and others that Kabul's defenses were weak.

...have an album coming out soon that mentions the beef you have with Oprah. I wouldn't call it a beef. I would call it a disagreement. I went to talk about Crash and racial discrimination, and I had my own Crash moment because Oprah was prejudiced against me because of my lyrics.
