In one of his sternest warnings yet concerning civilian casualties, President Hamid Karzai said Tuesday that NATO must stop air attacks on Afghan homes immediately, or face “unilateral action” from the Afghan government. ... “If they continue their attacks on our houses, then their presence will change from a force that is fighting against terrorism to a force that is fighting against the people of Afghanistan,” he said.Fine. Let Karzai fight the war his way. He can take his army and go up against the Taliban. The Afghan Air Force has a handful of Hinds and some transport helos. I've read some press releases about the establishment of Afghan Army artillery schools, but nothing about them using the tubes in a fight.
But if he thinks that he, his army and his government are ready to go it alone, fine. Take him at his word. Let's end this and bring our troops home.
