Thank you , Shelly, so much for this statement on the current conditions causing so much angst in my life and in the media. I appreciate your clear listing of the previous actions of our leaders. It helps to put all actions and situations in perspective.
Thank you so much for reading and for you kind comment, Shirley. I am so glad you found this post helpful.
Shelly, in a world of chaotic communication, you are one of the most solid, clear and compassionate voices I am hearing. When I see one of your emails in my inbox, I think “yippee! I am about to taste some good food!”
Thank you so much for your open-eyed wisdom, and the generosity in which you share it.
Jilly what a kind comment. This really makes my day. I am so pleased you find my posts helpful, and I greatly appreciate you reading them!
Shelley, thank you for writing this piece that provides perspective and historic background for current events in Afghanistan. Wish more people would not react and go to the Blame game, for we are all involved one way or another – our government, our troops. For me, it has been my blind faith in my country.
I am so glad you found it helpful, Diane! I, too, have sometimes placed blind faith in leaders. I am trying to do a better job of thinking critically. Writing articles like this helps me do so. So thank you for reading!
Excellent! Many people would benefit from reading your list of conclusions.

So kind, Sally, thank you!
