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.

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

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.

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.
