Stewart of Afghanistan versus Lawrence of Arabia
2007-05-01 19:32:00 May 1, 2007. Time magazine has published a nice tidy little article on Rory Stewart, who I wrote about in my second most popular blog entry ever. I was annoyed that he had claimed Afghans want the return of the Russians. I was further annoyed by his endorsement of disastrous development mega-projects that destroy local cultures and treat people like minor annoyances to be brushed aside for the sake of âprogress.â Thankfully, Rory Stewart has not been put in charge of any macro-development projects.

Lawrence of Arabia takes on the Taliban
2007-03-11 07:32:00 Inspired by the legendary leader, key Washington adviser David Kilcullen tells Christina Lamb how he is reshaping strategy in Afghanistan and Iraq.He writes : ?You watched Black Hawk Down and The Battle of Algiers, and know this will be the most difficult challenge of your life,? it starts. ?But how does [all the theory] translate into action at night, with the GPS down, the media criticising you, the locals complaining in a language you don?t understand, and an unseen enemy killing your people??My fundamental argument was that counterterrorism is enemy-centric ? try to destroy the terrorists then the problem goes away.That?s clearly not the case. Even if we kill Bin Laden, that?s not going to resolve the conflict. The problem is a quiescent population which is preyed on by a hostile element, so instead of going after that, you should go and protect the population and try to win their allegiance" It is a view taking hold both in Washington and London.
