Some people make the world a better place by leaving it. “When the wicked perish, the righteous rejoice.” Hot damn! Now if fat boy Al-Sadr would just blow up in a munitions dump, er mosque.

Turkey is part of ISAF, which is the peacekeeping force (including Germany, Austria, France etc.), as opposed to the seperate “Enduring Freedom” coalition which is the Combat force.

Kind of answers the question, “Can the Taliban survive the loss of Mullah Abdullah” that someone wrote about yesterday.

But the Taliban are offensive. And with the hot weather, they get reeeeeeeeeeeeally offensive. Even the goats run away.

The goats run away for another reason. You know.... Love is in the air in spring.

A NATO air strike killed 60 Taliban insurgents including three important commanders in Jalai district of Kandahar province in southern Afghanistan, provincial police chief Asmatullah Alizai told Xinhua Tuesday. "Important Commanders"..., translated: dominate cockroaches with a dozen or so mindless followers!
In any event, a few exterminated leaving advancement opportunities for the next brood hatched!

Mullah Abdul Hanan is connected to Mullah Omar....this is a big hit.
Someone is hunting leadership targets.

Not all the time. There are reports that some SOF imagery at night shows some taliban and goats in, let’s just say, “compromising” positions. It not only gets lonely at night, but baaaaaaaahhhd.

This sounds great. We have worked our way down from close associates, to second in command, to capitans, to lieutenants, to strategists and now we are getting the "top commanders". Sounds like they are running out of people to take leadership positions.
What's next, head platoon leaders?

Why are they even bothering?
I mean, the war is lost, right?

The overall command of ISAF is being rotated on a half-year basis between the countries. However in 2007 an exception was made and an US General (I think McNeil) has assumed commandm although the USA is not part of ISAF.
Before him it was a Brit. The Turks were in charge in 2002 and 2005.
