Hamid Karzai is Diem of Vietnam

Guardian: Reports that the Obama Administration will try as Kennedy did in 1963 in Vietnam to improve the political and military situation on the ground in Afghanistan by placing their own man in power. If I recall in 1963 that was a disaster, Kennedy gave the green light for the Army to take over, the USA was stuck in Vietnam till 1975. The Afghans are a proud people, they wont like the idea that the USA is playing an Imperial role in the government of Afghanistan. Thus expects things to get worse before they get better, if they get better, Obama and his West Wing crew could out of their depth when it comes to Afghanistan.
