What Goes Around

Paraphrasing Richard Perle in the 80s:

You should leave and let the sort it out for themselves. If you leave the problem solves itself.


This was a line delivered to the Soviet ambassador to the U.S. about ending Soviet occupation in Afghanistan and letting the mujahedeen and Afghans decide their own democracy.

Well I'll be damned.
