When those warlords released those Taliban.....we all knew this would happen.

This wont be the only death I am afraid...

Karzi better get this allies of his under control instead of running all over the place saying this is not his problem..

We put him there we can remove him..

Karzi said that catching OBL was not his problem. Since there are Afghan troops in this conflict, I doubt that they are there as free-lancers; hence Karzi knows about this.

Afghanistan is not like fighting in Europe during WWII. The release of the Taliban foot soldiers was beyond anyone's control. I don't think that the few special forces that we had on the ground could have stopped it.

On the other hand, perhaps it was allowed so as to flush out others in hiding, and get them all in one location.

I try not to get too agitated about things when I don't have all the facts. I am sorry about the US soldier who is dead, and I imagine we will take some more casualties before this is done.

However, Tommy Franks knows what he's doing. It helps to remember that we don't have the huge forces there that we had during the Gulf War in Saudi. Therefore we have to be smart. If I know this, I am darned sure that Franks and Rumsfeld know it too.

Be patient.
