Politics, Foreign Policy, Religion

I was a fortunate man today. I had the opportunity to participate in the most fascinating and intellectually stimulating conversation since I arrived in Kabul. I visited the office of our language assistants (it is in my house directly under my office/room) to ask them a question an Arabic phrase that I had heard and ended up staying two hours. We talked about everything ranging from Afghan history to U.S. foreign policy and British colonialism. I came away from the conversation more enriched and proud to know these men.
