Of course, the people we are working with as the "rightful" government is a repressive, corrupt administration that is so inefficient it makes the US government look like Wallmart. And that is just the offical government. Add the warlords who control large areas of the country and the idea of "restoring the rightful people to power" is pretty laughable.

We aren't liberating Afghanistan. We are occupying it. And the people of Afghanistan know it. That's why the Taliban has no problem gaining recruits
