Operation Mountain Viper
Posted by Peter W. Schramm
After nine days of fighting, American (10th Mountain Division) and Afghan forces have taken a Taliban stronghold. Scores (124 is a figure mentioned) of Taliban have died. This was the heaviest fighting since the Fall of 1991. No American casualties reported. Let’s see if CBS/CNN/ and the others report on this. Just curious. This is not to say that the Taliban are finished in Afghanistan. They are there, and have regrouped.

Funny, this is written several hours before a Democrat Debate. Yet Carol Moseley Braun must not know it happened...
"Braun, the only woman candidate, argued that Operation Iraqi Freedom represented a wrong turn in the war on terror. After reminding the audience that the United States still hadnt tracked down Usama bin Laden (search), she said: "We havent been looking for him because we got off on the wrong track (in Iraq)."
Ms. Braun, being presidential requires you to pay attention to the news...
