The day that changed Afghanistan
…”I’ve been in Kabul for nine months and there has never been anything like this before. There is a real feeling in the air that today Kabul changed. There has been a lot of fighting in the south but this has been mainly between the militias and the American forces … I’ve spoken to friends who work in Iraq and they say that there was one day when it all changed. That could be the case here … They [Afghans] have realized that they can take on the police and take on the Americans – they could easily do it again.”
