Paul Conroy Zitate

Britain, along with the U.S.A., is war weary, and after the travesty of Iraq and Afghanistan, has grave misgivings in any future involvement in the Middle East. The ghost of Tony Blair and his single-minded determination to attack Iraq, at any cost, has cast a long shadow over British politics. The British public have a long collective memory.

Großbritannien ist, zusammen mit den USA, kriegsmüde, und nach der Travestie des Irak und Afghanistans hat es ernste Bedenken hinsichtlich eines zukünftigen Engagements im Nahen Osten. Der Geist von Tony Blair und seine unnachgiebige Entschlossenheit, den Irak um jeden Preis anzugreifen, hat die britische Politik lange in den Schatten gestellt. Die britische Öffentlichkeit hat ein langes kollektives Gedächtnis.

And across Afghanistan, every single day, Afghan soldiers, Afghan police and ISAF troops are serving shoulder-to-shoulder in some very difficult situations. And our engagement with them, our shoulder-to-shoulder relationship with them, our conduct of operations with them every single day defines the real relationship.

What we have seen with Islamist extremism, whether it is in Mali or Somalia or Afghanistan, is that the disease is not necessarily the individual country. The disease is the Islamist extremism, and that's what we have to fight; that's the narrative that we have to beat.

My go-to gifts are scarves from my friend Matin Maulawizada's nonprofit organization, Afghan Hands, which supports disenfranchised women in Afghanistan. In exchange for their beautiful embroidery, the women are given financial aid and classes in math and literacy. The scarves are all stunning and one of a kind.
