- W2118818364 abstract "In coming months, Canadians will decide their policy towards Afghanistan. That decision will be political. One hopes it also will be rational, involving an assessment of our national interests, and the balance between gain and loss. Nor should our decision be determined by the weight of past sacrifices or policy. If we have been doing the wrong thing at a cost, why repeat the error and the sacrifice? The past, however, does show the need to treat the issue seriously, more than we did before we first decided to enter Kandahar in 2003, or to stay on there in 2006. There were good reasons to question the idea of going to Kandahar, when first we went there, and so also today. But many of the prevailing arguments on the topic are inadequate. The icky-pooh school of the left assails our involvement as “Stephen Harper’s war”, or “George Bush’s war”, when all political parties and virtually all Canadians advocated our involvement in Afghanistan during 2001, few opposed or even questioned our subsequent move to Kandahar, while both Barack Obama and The Guardian support staying the course today. Perhaps we should call it “The Guardian’s war”? The Don Cherry school of Canadian public policy insists that we should support the war just like we back the team, without asking whether we are in the right series. The political parties castigate each other as cowards or warmongers," @default.
