Last week Taliban terrorists dressed in burkas infiltrated a construction site in Kubal. In a 20 hour attack 11 armed militant and 4 suicide bombers killed 16 Afghans including 6 children. The terrorist attacked three different areas of Kubal in a coordinated effort. Most likely the attack was to show that the Taliban’s ability to terrify the population and conducting a “Tet” style attack for the main stream media’s reporting. This action came on the heels of a suicide truck attack on a U.S. compound in the Wardak province killing four Afghans and wounding 77 American troops.

This was a suicide mission to disrupt the daily routine of the capital city and create doubt in the current government of Afghanistan. Somewhere in the tribal regions Taliban terrorist are probably telling the locals that Allah will ensure their victory.

NATO commander, Gen. John R. Allen has identified the Haqqani network as being behind the attacks. The Haqqani network is a close ally of the Taliban and Al Qaeda and is an asset of the Pakistani Military and intelligence services. The terrorists, logistics and command of the attacks were from Pakistan and coordinated by the Haqqanis. They were probably carried out with a little help from the Pakistani Intelligence service.

Yeah, it did remind me some of Tet. The only thing missing was Walter Cronkite flapping his gums.
