More on What Has to Happen Next in Afghanistan

Following up on this....

"Keeping our Promises--Canada in Afghanistan Post-2011: The Way Forward"

1) A reminder from the Canada-Afghanistan Solidarity Committee's Terry Glavin that the committee that's been chasing the detainee wild goose "has rendered itself irrelevant to the central question of Canada’s current and future engagements in Afghanistan".

2) Terry and Afghan-American writer Nasrine Gross speak on CPAC's Prime Time Politics about how the detainee issue is preventing discussion of what should happen next in Afghanistan - the approximately 12 minute chat starts at 22:23 into the clip.

Strange how "news" works these days.

The CBC's 'Liberals feared Abu Ghraib-type detainee scandal: source'
story is exactly the same story that appeared in 2007 in La Presse - the story that everyone covering the 'detainee abuse' story for the past year or so has ignored.

I wrote about this two months ago. So did The Torch.

At least the CBC is finally catching up. Too bad about everybody else.

Sad, though, how nobody ELSE is running with this too hard :(
