How to Read the News

This article tells you something useful: that the jackasses running the country screwed up Afghanistan - and Pakistan - like they've screwed up everything else.

It also illustrates how less able world powers are able to dominate today than they were in the 19th Century. Do you think Great Britain would have suffered a puppet government aiding terrorists? Not likely: they would have annexed it, raised the Union Jack, and told anyone who complained to kiss their Tory ass. We taught them nationalism and now they use it to mess us up.
