When Barack went to Kabul -- guardian

Some loved him, others weren't so impressed. What's important is that Afghans don't rely on Obama to come to their rescue

As for Obama, the man is no expert, but at least he's honest and is trying to learn. If I had a choice between listening to Obama and Zalmay Khalilzad, the ex-US special envoy to Kabul, a fully-fledged expert, I'd go for Obama any day. Trust me. I went to Khalilzad's speech at UCLA and left it feeling downright stupid. How is it that I didn't know Afghanistan was doing so well?
