A Fantastic Solution to the Afghan Dilemma
As a byproduct of the great discussion going on at Change.org about the Afghanistan dilemma, I have learned about a great "new" idea for approaching the problem. Ralph Lopez and Najim Dost have founded an organization called Jobs for Afghans that proposes a Marshall Plan-style way bring the conflict in Afghanistan to a grinding halt in a way that it is hard for me to see how anyone could reject. What incredibly clear, outside-the-box thinking about not just the Afghan war but war in general! Why haven't I heard of this before? I am amazed and so greatly encouraged. I hope you are, too.
