“The United States is on track to spend nearly $3 million a mile on a new highway in southernAfghanistan, making it a monument to corruption and ineptitude.
The Gardez-Khost Road was conceived to link the Afghan government to remote areas of the country south of Kabul near the border with Pakistan. So far, the still unfinished 64-mile road has cost $121 million to build. The final expenditure will probably be closer to $176 million.
At least $1 million was paid to a shady figure known as Arafat, who promised protection to the subcontractors working on the project. Arafat reportedly has connections to the insurgents battling American soldiers and may have staged attacks himself in order to raise the praise of his security contract.”

one of the toughest problems we face is,the lack of americans that are fluent in said languages, as well as the fortitude to join the ranks to be able to not only deal with these people,but more importantly to be able to instantly recognize, and alarm to the fact when something deliberate is also being planned that will go against them. for thousands of years their has been one trait that has been passed down that we all over look,is the mena’s passion for being perpetually two faced. diplomats are played like fiddles.
