but i know that the people in afghanistan, the government of afghanistan, the government of afghanistan, they very much welcome that nato maintain its mission in afghanistan. we are there to help to fight international terrorism. we are there to send a clear message to the taliban that they will not win on the battlefield and we continue to be there so yes, we have adjusted the way we do ourjob but yes, we continue to be in afghanistan, help to fight international terrorism. do you agree with the analyst christopher scott luber who works at the atla nta christopher scott luber who works at the atlanta council, an expert in nato affairs, who says that after this is all over, there needs to be some really serious thinking about how in his words pandemics can within weeks degrade military operations and fragment unity among the closest of allies? do you agree with him? some serious thinking needs to be done about that. i think that after any crisis or every crisis we need to draw some lessons and adaptand crisis we need to draw some lessons and adapt and change the way that we do operation

in the afghanistan war to. basically provide military or at least non-lethal military. support this happened by the way on all sides the publications you mentioned earlier there was another initiative. and it was actually it actually involved the university of nebraska they were basically hired to. provide school books for. afghans during the war and were designed to kind of stoke anti soviet. sentiment in the afghan population and this was a u.s. government initiative one of the united states are supporting the mujahideen in afghanistan and gorbachev was giving a morale boost to jihadists by were drawing soviet troops from afghanistan china of course was backing pakistan and of course we all found out the official explanation from washington is azzam of bin laden was found and killed in pakistan what happened to a builder on the 24th of november one $1809.00 why was he killed who killed him so that day dollars arm was on his way to deliver the friday sermon in the. so called arab mosque in the shower and just as he was pulling. off the main street to park in front of t

both with the hope for a better kind of afghanistan and in afghanistan where they have the rights for the agreed purposes. i also think that we are responsible for encouraging wave after wave to come into the security forces to try to create that. we bear culpability for the 45,000 dead afghan national security forces because we persuaded them that this could be a different kindhe of place. and it grieves me to think that we will hand afghanistan back over to the harsh reality of taliban control. continuing with will be successful and anywhere near the creativity we ought to be prosecuting the strategy with. >> it is frustrating that after so much time we have been seeing better results. it's more than we should remember. we invoked article number five they didn't go home to their husbands and wives. so, talk about the tangible value i think we need to remember that but it's frustrating we haven't seen more progress overen this time that e strategy i think that you begin with the objective to prevent another being launched in afghanistan and the burden of proof is we cannot see that h

soldiers that we could have saved, who died in iraq and afghanistan? and the thousands more who today, and for the rest of their lives will have degrees of physical, emotional, and mental issues and will have hardships throughout their lives, and their families will suffer greatly along with them. none of that would have occurred if the united states has not gone into iraq under false pretenses. there were no weapons of mass destruction there. if the united states, after initial attack to remove al qaeda from afghanistan, had withdrawn within months or let's say even a year, there would have only been unfortunately a handful of soldiers killed. but it would have been many fewer than the 7000 who are dead now. but in addition to that, any people do not understand is that the number of contractors working for the department of defense and the department of state who have been killed in those two wars is greater than 7000. those people have families also. >> host: more questions please i will come here and then to you sir. and i repeat the question again.

in this particular case since al-qaeda had been based in afghanistan, that meant afghanistan. they gave afghanistan a warning, fairly quickly, to turn over bin laden and then proceeded to attack within weeks. now there is a lot more to that because bush gathers his war team together after the some timber 11th attacks and there are one or two proposals that they go beyond afghanistan. that they, and one particular case, there is a recommendation to attack iraq at that very first weekend meeting after september 11th. but that is generally put a side. and she was those words carefully. it is put aside but it is not rejected. but for the time being they decide to focus on afghanistan. that takes some time. it takes a few months for them to bring in sea i a teams and then eventually the military. to dislodge the taliban from -- table. from when we invade iraq that is a much longer story. there has been this recommendation at the very first meeting to attack iraq. why? because -- >> we know where it came from. >> yes. he does not get support from others there, if you can envision th
