Mindovermatter, that's a far lot more they'll be doing for their own good, vice standing around being bombed into oblivion by coalition forces and joining the taliban. Great for all those involved here.

Words like "blind", "leading", and "blind" come into mind.

Afghanistan is doomed...

So they'll learn to sit in a koban and pounce on passing bicycles. Skills that will be eminently useful in Afghanistan. Brilliant idea, folks! (cough)

What a good idea. The more you train them, the more killings will develop in Aghanistan. Don't Japan have enough crimes to battle first? Get serious, and protect your internal affairs, and your people. Mind your own business.

So they want to teach these folks on how to get confessions out of the Taliban supects, right?

Hmm..,how dare you want to clean someone else's backyard before attempting to clean your own?

Great for all those involved here.

Do you really know what you are talking about...?

What kind of experience or training are these JN police going to offer the Afghan's that will be of any substance that they can use in Afghanistan...?

Let's see.... The JN police are experts in counter-insurgency.. No... that doesn't work, because they don't know anything about that area...

Ok, how about, they are experts in gathering intelligence in that region of the country.... No... that doesn't quite work either...

I'm not saying you're wrong, but pls enlighten us as to exactly what kind experience the JN police can pass on to these Afghan's, that will be useful IN Afghanistan...?
