Nah. Note the dateline is 'Oslo', not 'Kabul'. I doubt the UN bureaucrats will get within a thousand miles of Afghanistan. No five star hotels.

#6 The Vampiric Vulture Elite (VVE) of the UN will follow the tried and true method of standing off and criticizing those who are actually working then, when all is just about done (and a 5-star hotel with 24 Hr Catering is in place), jumping in with a big fanfare (and full MSM coverage) and claim all the credit.
