This could dramatically transform the war, and the stakes, in Afghanistan.
 
the article points out the obvious -- that the taliban and others might fight even harder to control these areas.

they aren't just fighting over sand anymore.
 
so we bombed them into the bronze age






but that's only because of all the brass casings, bomb shells, etc....
 
Hmm, I wonder if this is part of the CIA's PR campaign to get more support in Western Europe.

From what I have seen and read this morning, this really isn't news. It is part of a strategy of selling the idea of staying in Afghanistan.
 
Or the main reason of going in there in the first place. Remember, Osama was Friend of Bush.
 
Osama:Hey Georgie. This is the plan. We're gonna crash some planes into the WTC and the pentagon so we need your help in making sure that happens. After that you come and invade Afghanistan pretending to come after me. Then, 9 years later you can strip mine the country for the minerals that are in the ground, just make sure you send some my way.
