  • Terrorism: Defining a Tactic

    In the evening of March 4, as U.S. Department of Defense workers were wrapping up their day, a man wearing a suit and displaying what guards later referred to as a “nervous intensity” approached the entrance to the Pentagon. As he walked up to the guard booth, he reached into his pocket and took out a semi-automatic 9 mm pistol and began firing at the two security personnel stationed at the entrance.

    Secretary of Defense Robert Gates made a quick visit to troops on the outskirts of Kandahar, declaring the area the “tip of the spear” ahead of the long-promised invasion of the major city and the surrounding province.

  • kabul attacks shows Taliban's wit

    The recent attack of five armed heroes of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan at Ansari Square, in the heart of the Kabul city, on last Friday substantiated once again that Mujahideen can daringly target important centers of the internal hireling enemy by successfully evading their security and intelligence chokepoints—still more to  kill a number of internal puppet soldiers and foreign nationals as well as injure many others.

Special forces assassins infiltrate Taliban stronghol

PDF Print E-mail


MERICAN and British troops poised to assault the Taliban stronghold of Marjah have begun targeting insurgent leaders for assassination.
Military sources said special forces had been infiltrating the town on “kinetic” missions — jargon for armed attacks. “Special forces guys have been going in on assassination missions with the aim of decapitating the Taliban force,” one said.
At the British base of Camp Bastion and the adjoining Camp Leatherneck, the US marine base, troops and munitions have been airlifted in by night to avoid enemy rockets. It is clear that international forces are on the brink of a big battle. All yesterday morning, the thud-thud-thud of heavy machineguns and the crump of mortars filled the air.
In a break from traditional military secrecy, American, British and Afghan commanders have announced that Marjah, the last town in Helmand under Taliban control, will be attacked.
Operation Moshtarak (“Together”) will be by far the largest offensive since General Stanley McChrystal, the American commander of Nato forces in Afghanistan, instigated his counter-insurgency strategy, backed by President Barack Obama’s 30,000-troop “surge”.
About 1,000 Taliban, mostly Afghans but with some foreign fighters in their ranks, are believed to be in Marjah, an opium centre and local headquarters for bomb-making and sending out suicide bombers.
Military sources described the use of publicity as a psychological tactic to intimidate the Taliban into laying down their weapons or fleeing.
The risks are huge. By surrendering the element of surprise, the coalition has given the insurgents time to dig in and expand an already extensive tunnel network. Taliban diehards are known to have been placing bombs along alleyways, roads and in a network of irrigation canals.
“Around Marjah is a mass of canals in a neat grid, the kind of terrain that’s difficult to clear, easy to defend,” said a military source.
There was little evidence of a Taliban retreat this weekend. Reached by satellite telephone, a Taliban commander expressed defiance. Said Mawlawi Abdul Ghafar vowed he would never lay down his arms.
“We’ve got experts and brave fighters who have fought and killed the infidels,” said Ghafar, 38, who commands 120 fighters in what he called the “first battle circle”. (Read More on TimesOnline)

Video: Pakistani Army In Action S.Wazirstan

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDQ1TPXMFyo&feature=player_embedded

In this video, the Pakistan army is seen in action in a territory that it rarely sets foot - South Waziristan. It is unclear though that they are fighting the Pakistan Taliban or villagers who traditionally do not allow Pak army to set foot in their villages. PBS says it is showing footage of Taliban being beaten in the village but we have doubts. It could simply be local people who do not want Pak army there.
