Five years after the fall of the Taliban, a joint report by the Pentagon and the State Department has found that the American-trained police force in Afghanistan is largely incapable of carrying out routine law enforcement work, and that managers of the $1.1 billion training program cannot say how many officers are actually on duty or where thousands of trucks and other equipment issued to police units have gone. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/12/04/world/asia/04police.html?hp&ex=1165294800&en=dde08ec5ddaac97d&ei=5094&partner=homepage STAY THE COURSE!

Should have put Halliburton in charge of this. At least most of the $1.1 billion would still be in an Americans pocket.
