Certainly they have made gains already in a couple of northern provinces. As I said. The "innocents" will let the police do their job. Those that hinder are no different from those that destroyed 7,000 (not 6,000 as you mentioned) lives. Current from this mornings statistics.

Also I do not believe either of you are up to speed on the situation in Afgahnistan. I gained that perspective from reading your post Dio.

I'm not sure what you are saying here, Yorick. Surely you aren't suggesting that the Afghan population as a whole is not innocent? Or are you?

As for the situation in Afghanistan, you are missing the point!!!! It doesn't matter which country we are talking about, anywhere on the face of this planet.

The point is that if we take innocent life in the name of our own righteous cause, we are no better than Bin Laden himself. Do you agree or disagree with that simple proposition?

In any case, I will look for your reply in the morning. It is late and I am tired.

Goodnight.
