Western and American officials are claiming that a top al-Qaida commander was among the people, who were killed by a missile fired from a CIA drone. They are hailing it as a great success.
In opinion, this is a ploy to divert American public’s attention.
The situation in Afghan is very bad. Things are getting out of American’s control. Though, Mr. Bush tried to paint a rosy picture of Afghanistan in his state of the Union address.
The truth is that Taliban is gradually taking over territories. People like Nic Lee, the director of the Afghanistan NGO safety Office believes that war has just started. He is of the opinion that the US did not defeat Taliban in 2001. They made a retreat to minimize their losses.
The US allies are not willing to contribute more troops in Afghanistan. That’s why the Administration ordered the deployment of 3200 Marines to Afghanistan.
The US and NATO officials are not telling the truth. They are using Pakistan as a scapegoat to hide their failures.
