If Cairo came to Kabul by David Swanson http://usa.mediamonitors.net/content/view/full/85363

"The U.S. military encourages Afghans to believe that only foreign violence can prevent domestic terror....Afghanistan's history has much to draw on in countering the idea that violence is inevitable. In particular, there is the history of a nonviolent Pashtun army under the leadership of Badshah Khan resisting the British occupation of what was then the Northwest Frontier of India and is now Pakistan....Imagining peace in Afghanistan is made difficult by decades of war, by traditions of honor and vengeance, by the current ubiquity of violence, but also by factors that dominate the lives of Afghans while often slipping from the minds of the rest of us. Afghans are hungry, miserable, suffering, and scared. Many have little or no electricity, healthcare, or potable water. In Afghanistan 850 children die every day."
