This is How We "Oppress" Afghanistan

We conservatives have made mention many times of how things are better in Iraq now than before, due in part to some of the improvements we have made in the infrastructure of the country. Here is an example of what coalition forces from “the great Western Satan” are doing to oppress those in Afghanistan:

“[British Secretary of State for Defense Desmond Browne] outlined British efforts in Afghanistan, including a U.K.-led provincial reconstruction team in Helmand that is implementing projects “aimed at improving the lines of ordinary Afghans.”

"These include digging wells, distributing food, providing a generator to a hospital in Lashkar Gah, repairing schools, building classrooms and a midwifery hospital, reinforcing river banks and flood defenses, and refurbishing tractor plows to encourage legitimate agriculture.

“There is no question but that the reconstruction work, when completed, will make a significant and life-changing difference to more than 1.8 million people in Helmand province and throughout the south of Afghanistan,” he said. “The reason for that is that the development will not only generate electricity for people and communities who have never had it before, but add substantially to the agriculture potential of the Helmand River Valley by doubling the area that can be tilled.””


Continue like this, and we will have a waiting list for countries who want to be similarly "oppressed."
