Ultimately, the world cares about 9/11 but doesn`t give a hoot about Afghanistan or its people evidenced by the fact that, even whilst is unstable, it was put on the `back-burner` as the Iraq invasion and aftermath was prosecuted.

The Afghanis deserve better and certainly our troops, who are fighting valiantly, deserve better.
