Quote : | " "If we die, we are martyrs - if we live, we are victors," say the Taliban in the Panjwai district of Kandahar province. They have taken control of the area in less than two weeks. For, with ever accelerating speed, the Taliban are reconquering south-west Afghanistan from the government, American and Nato forces sent to fight them" |

Classic statements from short sighted people.
The Independent is a respected international newspaper.
And it is not new news that the Taliban is in the process of reconquering Afghanistan.
The administration is even recognizing this. 8/20/2006 5:54:07 PM

Here's a CNN article about the recent violence in the same region of Afghanistan. While they mention the escalation of violence by insurgents, they fall short of making biased and sensationalist comments like, "the Taliban are reconquering south-west Afghanistan." 8/20/2006 6:01:52 PM
