"A view through a grain of Sand"

Another thought promoting documentary regarding the women of Afganistan. Could someone please tell me again, why are we sending troops there?
I was profoundly struck by the filmmaker Meena Nanji's honest answers during the Q and A. She was not political, she really dosen't know what the answer is to have peace and respect for women in Afganistan. She did comment that Barbara Boxer has a bill S229 regarding the rights of the Afghani women.
Peace to all,
Maria
