Yesterday a concerned father forwarded
to me a letter from his son in Afghanistan. I confirmed authenticity,
and republish with permission:
Dad,
I
am fed up. I cannot believe the lack of attention the recent changes in
this war is receiving by the media or the country. I think I saw one
thing on CNN about the following subject, but I had to dig extensively
to find it. The purpose of this letter is to let you know of the garbage
that our soldiers are going through right now. With this knowledge, I
hope that you take action by writing your congressmen.
First,
because of the recent green on blue incidents or "insider threats" as
the new buzz phrase dictates, all coalition forces in Afghanistan have
completely stopped partnering with the ANA, AUP, and ALP in order to
prevent the death of anymore CF casualties by ANSF or Taliban disguised
as them. This is also greatly spurred by President Karzi's indifferent
attitude and lack of action to take measures to prevent further insider
attacks.
