Being a woman in Afghanistan is so horrible that even being a woman inIran is a big step up.

I'd be tempted to support forcibly removing the Taliban from power sothat they can't do these things any more. But that is not a realsolution. We tried that already, and it led to 20 years of war thatwe were slowly but steadily losing.

I don't think we know a way to fight that war and win.

This is why I still believe that removing US troops from Afghanistan was the right thing to do.
