Two of those visits, including time spent fighting with the anti-Soviet mujahedin resistance, became the basis for a recently published book, "An Unexpected Light," a travelogue and paean to what he describes as "a place you either love or hate. I came to love it for better or worse." In the aftermath of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, Elliot has seen the land he loves so much characterized as a vipers' nest of terrorism and threatened with the military wrath of the United States. Salon reached him at his home in London to obtain a different view on Afghanistan. (...) ------------------------ Yahoo!
