The last one was torn down in March 2010. Religious freedom has actually declined in Afghanistan in the period during which we have been pouring billions into the country. What Are We Fighting For Update: “Not a Single Christian Church Left in Afghanistan, Says State Department,” by Edwin Mora for CNS News, October 10 (thanks to all who sent this in):
(CNSNews.com) — There is not a single, public Christian church left in Afghanistan, according to the U.S. State Department.This reflects the state of religious freedom in that country ten years after the United States first invaded it and overthrew its Islamist Taliban regime.
In the intervening decade, U.S. taxpayers have spent $440 billion to support Afghanistan’s new government and more than 1,700 U.S. military personnel have died serving in that country.
The way things are going there won’t be any left in Egypt in a couple of years.
