You say to build at local levels, but people living in Afghanistan have been living at a tribal level, not for centuries, but for millions of years, for so many years. We're not going to change them. We cannot bring our type of democracy. You put an election on a local level and they're going to elect the same leader. It's not going to change with an election or no election, in a sense.
But my question is how can we bring more resources to the community? A few months ago I saw a video from Helmand province--the next province, where the Brits are--and it was shocking to see the people with nothing at all. It was the winter-time, and I saw bare feet. How can we be sure that we can help, in a certain sense, to bring in some food at the community level until we have the time to build a society, to bring irrigation, to help them in any field? How can we help them right now?
