Brookings has a new report out (h/t to CFR's must read): Afghanistan Index Tracking Variables of Reconstruction & Security in Post-9/11 Afghanistan by Ian S. Livingston, Heather L. Messera, and Michael O’Hanlon.
Haven't had time to read it carefully yet but it looks like a collection of pretty charts grouped into the following categories: "security indicators," "governance and rule of law indicators," "economic and quality of life indicators," and "polling and public opinion."

It's a steamy load of horseshit.

Don't hold back, SNLII.
ReplyDeleteWatched a bit of the Afghanistan London Conference on CSPAN. I'm sure some of the nerds who frequent this joint did, too. Be honest! So, what'd you all think? I'm reading a lot of Indian sources, naturally, so you all know where my head is at on this stuff.
SNLII--I took a closer look. It's superficial stuff and they didn't go very deep in terms of research...it is nicely presented though.
ReplyDeleteMadhu--need to read more before I can say anything smart. I've been busy with work.
No worries Lil - I was just suggesting possible future material for a post, and goofing around mostly. I know it's tough to blog when work is busy :)
ReplyDeleteI know Madhu...I've been on deadline and procrastinating--not a good combination.
