It is difficult to predict the future for Afghanistan. There are always dangers, mostly from the random attack that would have nothing to do with us or our operations. Whatever happens, even if a Talibanesque regime were to gain power, the future will not be the past re-lived. AFCECO has established strong ties with so many people that it would be political suicide for the average politician, and terrible PR for anyone in power to attack the orphanage. What insures against the unpredictable future is the fact that AFCECO is Afghan founded, Afghan run, and Afghan staffed. Even the most Taliban dominated region of the country is allowing schools for both girls and boys to flourish as long as they are Afghan based. The fact is the vast majority of people want education and opportunity for all their children.
