The strife in Kyrgyzstan just underlines the principal difficulty facing NATO (and Australia) in Afghanistan - namely,logistics.

Being landlocked and surrounded by unstable "stans" doesn't bode well for a successful conclusion to this mismanaged and illadvised war.

It is a mess and the sooner Australia,at least,is out of it,the better.
