Rory Stewart on A-stan


Rory Stewart, British adventurer, strategist, human rights advocate and now Tory candidate for parliament, recently published a new essay about Afghanistan that I highly recommend: "Afghanistan: What Could Work." I think Stewart is one of our most eloquent and insightful strategic thinkers and writers about Afghanistan in particular and our post-9/11 aggressive intervionsionism in general, and it is always worth reading his stuff. His essay "The Irresistable Illusion" is, in my opinion, a modern classic.
