An Open Message to Bridgestone Corporation Absent government or judicial intervention, if Bridgestone/Firestone Corporation does not abandon its use of substandard component parts and does not take immediate remedial measures in its tire manufacturing process, and does not terminate its unlawful business practices or cease its human rights violations at its rubber plantation in Liberia, Africa, the end result will be a multi-national corporation with manufacturing plants all over the world, populated by thousands of employees who make millions of tires, that nobody wants to buy!

The U.S. Marine Corps, which has long recognized the importance of influencing the civilian population in a counterinsurgency environment, requested an evaluation of the effectiveness of the psychological operations element of U.S. military information operations in Afghanistan from 2001 to 2010 based on how well messages and themes were tailored to target audiences. This monograph responds to that request.
"Security in Afghanistan has historically required a combination of top-down efforts from the central government and bottom-up efforts from local communities. Since 2001, U.S. and broader international efforts have focused on establishing security solely from the top down through Afghan national security forces and other central government institutions. But local security forces are a critical complement to these efforts, especially in rural areas of the country. The Afghan government and NATO forces need to move quickly to establish a more-effective bottom-up strategy to complement top-down efforts by better leveraging local communities. The Afghan government can work with existing community structures that oppose insurgents to establish village-level policing entities, such as arbakai and chalweshtai, with support from NATO. Effectively leveraging local communities should significantly improve counterinsurgency prospects and can facilitate mobilization of the population against insurgents. This analysis documents lessons about the viability of establishing local security in Afghanistan and addresses concerns about the wisdom of such policies."--P. [4] of cover.
