Politics: Where we struggle to kneel in the muck.

I was looking last night at some of the emails I've gotten in the last few months from Iraq and Afghanistan. One thing I find very interesting is that in the photos from Afghanistan, the soldiers are on base or behaving in soldierly ways in only about half the shots. The other half show the guys (and I see only guys in American uniform there) on construction sites, visiting schools, and doing other kinds of humanitarian relief work. On the other hand, all the photos in Iraq are focused on military endeavors, and the emails seem to indicate that nobody leaves base much.

Meaning.......

Doesn't this mean that Afghanistan is going fine, and that we really don't need more troops there?
