Afghanistan Travel and Tour Guide
Civilian Jobs in Afghanistan Get the Facts
10Oct2007 Filed under: Afghanistan Travel Author: admin
Believe it or not, twenty years ago Afghanistan was a common tourist destination. In recent years however, the only time anyone hears the name Afghanistan it is in relation to the ongoing war that seems to be the prime focus of the news channels.
How Safe is Safe?
So is Afghanistan a dangerous place to visit? The simple answer to that is, not as dangerous as south side Chicago or many areas of New Orleans. The fact is that there really is no place on this planet that is perfectly safe, so trying to find perfect safety is a wasted effort.
A Lot of Rebuilding Work to Be Done
There are many civilian jobs in Afghanistan that are now opening up and it is expected that more will open in the near future as the country rebuilds. Virtually every country the borders Afghanistan wants to see it stabilized, so there are a lot of governments chipping in.

Get All of Your Papers Together
Step one, would be to get all of your papers together. That would include your passport, travel visa and any other papers that you will need relating to your employment status. Then the best place to look for a civilian job in Afghanistan would be online.
Private Security Work
If you don’t mind people trying to kill you from time to time there is always private security contracting work that is available in both Afghanistan and Iraq. However; with so many governments determined to rebuild the country there is plenty of other work as well.
Learn the Language and Customs
One thing that you should also do however, is to study the native language of Afghanistan before you head out. Also, get good book that covers all of their customs as well, so you will have some type of understanding of how things work socially over there

Iraq is smack dab in the middle of the richest oil reserve on the planet. As of 9/11 Sadams army was in shambles , his brutality was legendary, and after over 8 years of sanctions the civilian population was undergoing a humanitarian crisis.
Bush and the majority of his cabinet disapproved of Bush senior leaving Sadam in power after the first Gulf war.
All this coupled with a reasonably logical assumption that Sadam probably had some WMD stashed away some where made for a relatively easy sell to the American people that a military invasion was justified on the heals of the 9/11 attack and the administration correctly ascertained that a military victory over Sadams army would be a cake walk.
They incorrectly assumed that once Saddam was removed the Iraqi people would unite to rapidly adopt a democracy that would be a model for the mideast and friendly to the US. Had this gone off as planned it would not only have solved the US energy needs for decades it would also have provided an ideal strategic military base of operations to strike Iran and Syria if military action should be required to bend them to the Administrations will.
Once the Oil reserves of Iraq were secure as well as oil reserves in Iran coupled with oil reserves in Saudi Arabia the US would essentially control the well head in the Mideast and pretty much any country on the planet that the Administration found to be in contention would find it’s energy supply cut off and that would be a very powerful weapon indeed.
Of course the possibility remains that the Administration will go ahead with their plan and invade Iran regardless of the failure to produce a viable friendly democracy, he has the air power sitting idle and he has the ground troops in place and battle hardened if a ground assault is required to destroy military resistance in Iran and or Syria.
The Idea that such shenanigans are a war against terrorism is laughable in that if such actions are taken they will justify the terrorists cause world wide.
Our children’s children’s war to which they speak.
This doesn’t have to be, this environment is being created by wealth and power seeking ever more wealth and power that’s producing the poverty and inequity and warfare that in turn produces the terrorist’s.

Not very….hahah I wouldn't advise it though, it is still a dangerous area. I would check with the Consulate there to ask what they are recommending for Americans, they might be able to give you a better idea.

Why on earth would a peaceful country have a need to have permanent bases anywhere but on home ground?
Canadians are first and foremost – Peacekeepers, not warring imperialists. We go where we are needed and when we are asked – we do not assume to know better than the rest of the world what should and shouldn't be. If that were the case, we would undoubtedly have military bases all over to make it easy to stick our noses in other people's business.
We are, however, an active member of The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and as such, we get involved in safeguarding the freedom and security of its member countries by political and military means when called upon to do so. You can learn about NATO at the link below or google the word or the name in full to get a variety of pages on the subject.
Edit: I am not sure what Jim B thinks is contrary – The question is in the present tense, not the past. And I did not omit NATO which addresses the post WWII and Korean War periods and is ongoing. I spent most of my life caring for Vets and my answer was absolutely NOT intended to put down any vets or minimize their contributions. But right now, we are more often called upon to be Peacekeepers in our role as a country. Our role as a member of NATO is in keeping with the Treaty we signed. At present, it seems to me, we spend most of our efforts cleaning up after wars and military conflicts started by others.

The air distance between Bangor, Maine and Kabul, Afghanistan is 6352.28 miles, or 10222.73 kilometers.
An SR-71 flying at its (reported) record speed travels 2,193.17 mile per hour, or 3,529.56 km per hour.
If that jet could maintain that speed for the entire distance (which it cannot do), the trip would take 2.89 hours. It would probably have to refuel twice enroute, and does not fly at its maximum speed when cruising long distances.

Take steps to ensure your own safety, have a plan. Talk with the German Consulate so you know what options you have if you should run into trouble.
As a worse case scenario, figure out what you would do if once there, your husband decides he does not want either of you leaving.

One day when I was traveling with PIA Pakistani International Airline.
There was a guy from Denmark he was Pasthoon he was siting next to me. I asked him where are you going to PAK he said from Islamabad i will go to Kabul.
It's easy to get out from Kabul AFG to Islamabad many Afghanis do like that.. Some of them travel from Islamabad to Kabul from Kabul to ISBD
