Afghanistan's Koran-burning protests: 'Time for us to leave'? (The Week)
[unable to retrieve full-text content]The Week - Violent protests against the U.S. and NATO focus fresh attention on our Afghan war strategy. Should we hunker down ... or get out?Anti-U.S. riots in Afghanistan lost some steam early this week, but American personnel still haven't returned to Afghan ministries following the point-blank killings of two U.S. officers by an Afghan security guard at the Interior Ministry. That incident was just one troubling episode in a week of violence triggered by the reportedly accidental burning of Korans by U.S. soldiers, straining the Afghan government's partnership with the U.S. and NATO. The Pentagon says it's sticking with its "fundamental strategy" of training Afghan forces to take over security duties by the end of 2014. But is this crisis a sign that it would be wiser to withdraw faster?
