    If so, can you share a few ways American culture is better than Afghan culture?

    Okay, sure.

    1. It’s legal to be queer.
    2. Music is allowed.
    3. Women can wear whatever they want and have jobs.
    4. Girls can go to school.
    5. Religions other than Islam are permitted along with atheism.
    6. People can say what they want online or in person without being tortured and executed for blasphemy or heresy.

    And, what the hell…

    1. It’s legal to fly kites in the U.S.

    Is that enough?

      If polls indicated that the Afghan people preferred it that way, would it have been worth the deaths of so many to try to change it?
