      Lior,
      Congratulations on getting your Ph.D.!!! I was the guy a couple years ago who met you that night at the J, when they asked you to speak - probably thinking that because of your name you would be a pro-Israel sap. (-:

      Great article you have posted here, thanks to Juan for publishing you again, and congrats again on the Doctorate!!!

      Dr. Cole,. thank you for 11 plus years of incredible posts. They help me counter the rantings of the right wingers and the israeli war hawks. My request is if you would be so kind to elaborate more in detail or in a few short paragraphs why the released Talibanis are hated in Afghanistan. Also, remind me again what party Karzai beliongs to and if it is true Karzai and Taliban have been negotiating for peace and how the territories get ruled. Last, I have been saying that the Taliban of today is not what it was 11 years ago when it was funded by Bin Laden's network. Is that true? Thank you!!! I'll hang up and listen. (-:
