of course, karzai has to worry about the end of one of his predecessors -- najibullah, who was suffocated by the taliban with his own genitals, and whose corpse was hung on a lamppost. the soviets were not there to help najibullah. similarly the yanks will wash their hands of karzai too.
seems saleh, the intelligence chief, was a tajik and an associate of ahmed shah massoud, the martyred military genius of the northern alliance who was assassinated by al qaeda two days before 9/11. i tend to trust the tajiks -- they have generally been india's friends. massoud was.
