Playing the goat
USA Today (Society for the Advancement of Education), March, 2008 by Llewellyn D. Howell
This is not a fight against AI Qaeda. AI Qaeda is not a government or a place. It can move its leadership, while its ideology floats across hills, mountains, borders, desserts, and oceans. This is a war against the Afghan Taliban and its adherents on the enemy's own sacred field. Meanwhile, the same game in Afghanistan goes on--except that now we are the goat.
