I have never been to A-stan but it is widely known that Middle Eastern countries have always been like this. It's the way it's done there and always will. Iraq was the same under Saddam. If the people didn't do what he wanted, he killed them. Sadly, violence and imprisonment is the only known solution in places like Astan and Iraq.
Our soldiers are doing a great job of rebuilding the country and establishing a democracy but unfortunately, they have centuries of damage to undo. I'm not so sure we will see places like Afghan prisons closed down on our lifetimes. I certainly hope so.....
