More than 90 talibans killed in the south of Afghanistan
KANDAHAR (Afghanistan) - More than 90 talibans were killed Sunday in the south of Afghanistan, where the forces of NATO continue a major offensive to dislodge the rebels of one their bastions, one learned Monday near a spokesman from NATO in Afghanistan.
The 92 killed rebels Sunday carry, according to NATO, to approximately 512 the number of talibans died in the combat which oppose them to the forces Afghan NATO and of safety since September 2 in the district of Panjwayi, with only 35 kilometers in the west of Kandahar, the principal city of the south.
"more advanced analysis of the assessment of the battle of yesterday (Sunday) reveals that 92 rebellious was killed", indicated the commander Scott Lundy, spokesman of the international Force of assistance to the safety (Isaf), led by NATO, in Afghanistan.
These engagements lie within the scope of the Medusa operation, launched last week to subdue the talibans in this zone and to allow the return of people moved by the combat which are held there since spring.
The 92 killed come to be added to the 94 talibans died in other confrontations during the day of Sunday, it underlined.
Isaf also inflicted "of the severe losses" in artillery stoppings and air raids against rebels who tried to assemble a counter-attack.
"the number of killed is still in the course of evaluation", it added.

The problem is that we aren't killing them fast enough!! Add another "0" (zero)to that 90 and it may the the attention of some of the wannabee taliban corpses still wandering around the rubble of Afghanistan.

"The 92 killed rebels Sunday carry, according to NATO, to approximately 512 the number of talibans died in the combat which oppose them to the forces Afghan NATO and of safety since September 2 in the district of Panjwayi..." That is disappointing. It would have been much better if they could have killed them in a locale with better scenery.

Good work. This is the only thing these islamothugs understand. Keep killing them, and killing them in large numbers. Eventually, they'll get the message.

Outstanding. Thank you Canada, Britain and all the other NATO allies who are engaging the Taliban. Piling up nearly a hundred dead here with another group there is excellent progress. The next Taliban "Spring Offensive" will consult of freezing, starving, bearded warrior wannabes sitting around a board game of RISK. All the real Taliban warriors will be dead by then.
Keep in mind if today's media reported on Okinawa the headlines would have been about 20,000 American casualties and worsening violence in the western Pacific.

Kill you, literally, as he did regularly in the 6th century and for the same reason. Your very desire for peace is cause enough. Check out last week's article by Joseph Farah in World Net Daily. The gist of it is that according to the Islamists, the Jews, always acting in accordance with their ethic to limit killing, are consequently not worthy of living in the holy land. Farah has the latest cites and quotes. That is the Islamist perspective, which is also as pure Mohammedan as it gets.
To: jschwartz
The Taliban is like a *Roach Society* the more you kill the more come out of the woodwork.
So many of these people are stuck in a stone age view of the world. How do you combat that?

Don't be surprised when you hear top dems start to demand that Saddam be returned to power in Iraq. I heard Howard Stern advocating that on his satellite radio program a couple of weeks ago.
Of course, he's a blowhard and a jackass, but still ... the idea is out there.

LOL, you got that right.
Everytime - like in the movie last night - when I hear that OBL wanted to drag us into Afganistan to defeat another world power (in his inflated ego, he believed they were solely responsible for the down fall of the Soviets - never mind our SDI, Pershing Missles in Europe, Minute Man, 600 ship navy and a few stingers to his buddies), I laugh because of the irony. Boy, did that back-fire on him.
oops, says OBL and pals, "can we have a do over?"

"So many of these people are stuck in a stone age view of the world. How do you combat that?" If they live in peace with their neighbors -- you don't do anything..
If they behave in a warlike manner -- you kill every damned one of them..
