Afghan 'Starbucks' proves a hit

While the news from Iraq seems to grow more dismal on a daily basis, the rap from the real frontlines of the war on Al Qaeda seems to grow a bit more positive. This is a Starbucks I'd be at every day, too. Sounds like a hoppin' place!

A coffee shop called Starbucks bang in the middle of Kandahar is hardly something one takes in one's stride.
