Greetings from Afghanistan,
The heavy fighting has ended for 2008, but the real kick-off for this war likely will occur around March or April 2009. The enemy has been busy working on our logistics shipments through Pakistan. About 200 trucks were reportedly burned in the last two days.
Counterinsurgency “experts” who make field trips to Afghanistan seem to go home with Kool Aide dripping off their lips. A reasonable observer might say that any “expert” who did not see these problems growing by early 2006, should be stricken from the list of reliable sources.
And he invites you to read a short dispatch.
