The people of Afghanistan go with us or the Taliban, depending upon who the highest bidder is. It's that simple. We made great strides in the past couple of years by simply paying more for them to fight on our side. The Taliban, in concert with the local religious leaders, is clearly involved in the latest violence. It's all about whipping up the anti-American froth. It's just an excuse.
As for the jackass in Florida, he's risking American lives with his quest for another 15 minutes of national fame.
