I share their horror when I read stories like this one by New York Times reporter Dexter Filkins describing an acid attack against girls and women - students and their teachers - at the Mirwais School for Girls. But how will escalation or increased US troop presence improve their security or make their lives better?"Source URL: http://gbejadacosta.blogspot.com/2009/02/helping-afghan-women-and-girls.html
