Friday News of Afghanistan VI
So, here we go for another week:
The Australians will be increasing their troop levels in Afghanistan. They are sure more than an 80% ally to the Afghans!
What does the future hold? Ali Ahmad Jalali opines.
I am not sure what to make of this ruling on the status of Afghan hijackers in Britain.
Two women that suffered a terrible loss on 9/11/01 turn to help Afghanistan.
Power lines cross Afghanistan - as long as they pay a toll...
(I continue to flog this issue, I know) What to do with the disarmed militia?
General Eikenberry doesn't dance around the subject when it comes to what is happening in Afghanistan.
When I saw this article, I was cheered - not only because the women need the assistance, and that I used to cover Kapisa Province in my work for TF Eagle, but that Governor Murad looks to be as good as I hoped.
Heh. It seems the Afghan Parliament's lower house has learned how to grease the squeaky wheels. Actually that might be a bit harsh - I saw how little the people that these increases are targeted for had to live on...
Dammit - this is something I really didn't want to happen. I want the distributors hurt, not the farmers.
Afghan News Source of the Week: e-Ariana. A very high quality, comprehensive site.

just a thought, but maybe if you ask RTO nicely he could send you some tea before too long....
Maggie - Hey?! I hadn't thought of that. Being at...uh, where he is going to be, heh heh, he should be able to pick some up. I'll have to send him some $ and have him get me some! I'll get a hold of you about that...
If that fails, I can send you some tea from here too. :) You have to tell me in the next week but. Before my R&R.
Lemme know. vasco_pyjama at livejournal.com
