There is no argument that we shouldn't have cut and run after the
USSR was expelled, Vietnam-style, from Afghanistan, leaving it to the
tender mercies of terrorists and fundamentalists supported by the
Pakistani ISI and madrasas and Saudi money. We will not make that
mistake there again; I just hope we do not make it in Haiti, where we
toppled the criminal Duvalier regime but are currently faced with more
strongman-type threats to their budding democracy.
