after bleeding 8 years in the Afghanistan mountains, the US has changed their war tactic from "killing everyone" to "winning hearts and minds".
The stated goal of defence analysts is to "try to win hearts and minds" of the people by offering them cigarettes and dollars. and turning them against the Taliban.
While the new strategy is admirably thought-of and it tries to make NATO image not to look like butchers and barbarians, as uncovered by Al-Jazeera, it falls short of one thing.
like many things the americans do, this strategy has a serious flaw which fails to achieve its objective. NATO forces routinely knock down villagers homes and raid the women's area. which is a big no-no in afghan culture.
NATO fails to understand this key point that the women's area is off-limit to every outsider. failing to respect this rule still tends to make them the enemy of the afghan people.
However the strategy is not limited to Afghanistan. its part of a bigger campaign to win hearts and minds of the muslims in the west and turn them against one another via internal fighting. the ironic part is that, muslims have been fighting internally for centuries. but the one thing muslims don't do is attack Islam itself. that is the one thing the west does and therefore does not trust anything that comes from the non-muslim's mouth
