Detta är ingen fredsbevarande mission

Speaking in London after a meeting with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Rice said, "I do think the alliance [NATO - North Atlantic Treaty Organization] is facing a real test here. Our populations need to understand this is not a peacekeeping mission but rather a long-term fight against extremists."

lägesrapport Afghanistan 22 oktober 2008

Die hören sollen, sie hören nicht mehr,
Vernichtet ist das ganze Heer,
Mit dreizehntausend der Zug begann,
Einer kam heim aus Afghanistan.

Good news feb 2009

In Afghanistan, "state institutions have been created, a Constitution adopted, a president was elected, and government was formed. All the necessary conditions are in place for the stable functioning of a government in Afghanistan," the statement said. The Kyrgyz government also cited growing popular discontent with the US military presence among its motivations for the closure. It also criticized US obstruction of the investigation into the fatal shooting in December 2006 of a Kyrgyz truck driver by a US serviceman during a security check at the entrance to the air base. Officials have not specified when the closure might take place, but the agreement under which the base was established in 2001 specifies that the United States must be given 180 days notice.
