=Time to say sorry=


 * Letter**

What is Greg Mills trying to say, Mission possible in Afghanistan (January 29)? His article reads like a poorly written guide to installing a cupboard.

The world knows that the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq were disasters.

This is not the time for instructional gobbledegook in the guise of building democracy; this is the moment for those, like Mills, who have advised on these calamities, to say: we were wrong, and we are sorry.
