"Afghanistan is not Switzerland"

Whenever someone has to make excuses about how things in Afghanistan are not going so well - as in election fraud, government corruption, ineffective army, etc. - the stock answer used by some is "Afghanistan is not Switzerland".  Read an interesting article that explores this phrase.  See "All together now: Afghanistan is not Switzerland", The AFPAK Channel, September 17, 2010.
