...Every day, Karzai and his Western backers are losing ground to the Taliban, as insurgents fill the void created by the failure to bring progress to the rural areas. And as bad as Karzai's government of patronage may be, part of the blame for the lack of progress must also go to the international donors who concentrated on mega projects carried out by foreign corporations and their armies of gun-toting security contractors. Tapping into a seemingly limitless river of funds became an end in itself, rather than completing the actual bridge or road they were supposed to build...

...sure that there will need to be an official response, but your denying the existence of the facility which he is raising this morning in his speech. This does not mean with our facilities that anything was done secretly. This does not mean we must inform Mr. Obama's administration of every facility that we have. I think we must wait to see what Mr. Obama's remarks are, and then express our views...
