Old Blue. Not trying to kick a dead horse… but who would have been a prime target to the ISI? It would have been the good old US of A. What better way to create chaos in Afganistan. To my way of thinking inolving ourselvs in that mess would have led to a catastrophe along the lines of the Marine Barracks in Beirut, in which we were percieved as choosing sides in a civil war. I think we could have counted on the ISI to target the US for playing in what they percieved as their back yard. Just my 2 cents.
