Afghan war from the Pacifist Perspective

Discussions about Afghanistan have discussed many military solutions, however little attention is given to discussions for non military solutions. In order to grant insight on this subject, we had a chance to talk to Dr. Hakim. Hakim is a peace activist and medical doctor, originally from Singapore, who came to Afghanistan about a decade ago to work in the refugee camps there. The Afghan people gave him the name "Hakim," a term of endearment which means "wise person" and physician. He is mentor to and translator for the Afghan Peace Volunteers.
