The Taliban in northern Afghanistan began the rampant activities – Threat to NATO’s supply line

Nov 30

Posted by admin in Afghanistan, Taliban News | No Comments

In a police patrol in northern AfghanistanAccording to “The New York Times” reported on the 26th in northern Afghanistan has been the United States and the Afghan government as a safe area, defense forces are very weak, but the recent strengthening of the Taliban has begun to gradually invaded the region, threatening the NATO Allied 1 The key supply routes.

The northern region has always been the most powerful anti-Taliban Northern Alliance forces of the location, the local Taliban forces have been in a collapsing state. Eight years ago, Kundu Si in northern Afghanistan province of Taliban forces were removed. Kundu Si the Government of Afghanistan two years ago, the police will be reduced by one third, from 1,500 people reduced to 1,000. This year, 200 of them deployed to support the capital, Kabul. Currently, only thousands of German soldiers were there to maintain law and order, and only one logistics battalion; with 35 million people, 200 km from the northern border of Afghanistan has only 80 officers Khanabad defense; while hundreds of Taliban activities in the northern part of Chahardara were only 56 police officers.

But in the past two years, the Taliban resurgence in the local momentum is very fierce. August presidential elections, Kundu Si took place around the city a number of attacks. While NATO and Afghan government quickly stepped up security in the city, but the Taliban in the whole province, Kundu Si within the scope of activities are still rampant. Because of logistical supplies through Pakistan are often attacked by the Taliban, NATO has recently opened up a new transport supplies from Russia and Central Asia, the supply line, and Kundu Si region is that the line must pass through.

The Afghan government and U.S. forces neither paid attention to the infiltration of Taliban forces in the northern signs. Locals, from the spring of 2008, the Taliban attacks began in the local re-emergence. In fact, in 2001, after being defeated, the Taliban did not leave the area. Taliban mostly from the Pashtun, while Kundu Si area is nearly half of the population belong to the tribe, many locals are creating chaos in 2001, fled to Pakistan, in the past two years to return. They assassinate local leaders, and quickly occupied a number of Pashtun tribal area, and Uzbeks belonging to the local ethnic minorities driven from their homes. At first, They were very friendly with the tribes, but after the power gradually expanded, it began to plunder the people, to farmers taxation, and not with the threat of families. Even Kundu Si drug traffickers in the border areas are also allied with the Taliban, so that the local security situation is more worrying. And people of the past lingering memory of the tyranny of the Taliban government, right now the basic non-violent acts of resistance. In addition, an affair with al-Qaeda Organization of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan has also returned from exile in Pakistan for chaos in the region. Makes the local security situation worse.

Afghan officials said the security situation has never been so worrying. Even if Obama announced that more troops, the United States, NATO and Afghan government will still face tough choices to deploy. Most of the new troops will be sent as the heart of Taliban forces in the south and east, but almost no more troops to the northern part of the arrangement.

The United States deployed 9,000 Marines to Afghanistan against the Taliban lair

Nov 30

Posted by admin in Afghanistan, Asia, Taliban News | No Comments

November 30 electricity in the United States President Barack Obama announced that it will announce troop plan for Afghanistan after the 9000 Marine Corps officers and men received a mobilization order, and stationed in Afghanistan began the final preparations. It is reported that the Sagittarius will be deployed in southern Afghanistan near the Pakistan border in Helmand province, in order to increase U.S. efforts to crack down Taliban militants safe havens.

“Washington Post” reported that in the above troop surge plan is completed, the U.S. military forces deployed in Helmand province will double. In addition to the Marine Corps, the Army will send 1,000 to Afghanistan military instructors. These people as early as February next year, arrived in Afghanistan to help Afghan President Hamid Karzai training troops and police forces to ensure the Afghan national security.

U.S. troops in Afghanistan and NATO’s International Security Assistance Force is currently before the supreme commander, General McCristal requirements, the White House in the coming year and a half about a gradual troop 35000. Currently, U.S. troops in Afghanistan has reached 6.8 million people, but still can not guarantee the absolute superiority of the Taliban. McCristal said that if the U.S. does not currently send more troops, NATO will lose the battle with the Taliban.

It is learned that adopt a “progressive” surge the reason for this is a serious shortage of infrastructure facilities in Afghanistan, the U.S. military can not afford a large number of logistical security needs. In addition, if President Karzai failed to honor its promise to fight corruption, the United States will be able to send more troops to Afghanistan will end in a timely manner as punishment. Earlier this year, the U.S. military has send more troops to Helmand province, 10000 against the Taliban.

However, the U.S. military is still unable to control the Taliban heartland of Helmand province, the local is still an important distribution center for the opium trade, the Taliban has brought rolling cash flow. Manufacturing here or the Taliban roadside bombs and planning the home turf of various types of attacks base. If the U.S. turned a blind eye to this, the Afghan people certainly have to question the U.S. commitment to the fight against the Taliban.

Analysts pointed out that the majority of new U.S. troops will be sent to the border region with Pakistan on the Taliban activity areas focus on the formation of north-south pincer attack. At present, foreign troops in Afghanistan with Afghan army and police compared to the total strength of the Taliban, has reached the level of 12:1, but still feel “inadequate.” However, to continue to send more troops to Afghanistan and then let Obama was faced with a large number of political difficulties.

The White House planned for this October, will expand the scale of the U.S. Army’s 134,000 people, ahead of schedule in 2014 “development plan.” Previously, the Pentagon’s new recruiting more than 5,000 people every month. However, in November, the U.S. military did not complete the recruitment plan, only the new collection to more than 2,000 soldiers. In addition, the Afghan army and police wages rose by 40%, but do not know whether we can work to promote local recruitment.

Recently, large numbers of U.S. troops from Iraq and redeployed to fight in Afghanistan. Many U.S. military discovered that, although Afghanistan and Iraq are both Muslim countries, but apart from religion, the different types of customs. The only two places the same thing, I am afraid that is in the hands of armed assault rifles, rocket-propelled grenades, mortars and almost ubiquitous roadside bombs.

For example, U.S. forces in Iraq could be driving on flat highway patrol, in the Yimapingchuan suffering the worst summer heat of the desert, and even to work with have received university education, for national style quite a few words about the young people talk. To Afghanistan, the U.S. military found that the majority of Afghans are illiterate farmer a few of these people’s favorite hiding in their own homes, much staring at the U.S. military to see. U.S. troops admit that Afghanistan is difficult to conquer the country. Among them, poor natural conditions, in particular, almost harsh winter climate and complex topography, have contributed to difficulties in the direct cause of the war in Afghanistan. The Pentagon sent troops occupied Baghdad just driving along the highway in the past, but to conquer the mountains of Afghanistan, is another matter. In addition to require a lot of Sagittarius things, to ensure smooth logistical even more is the most important. In Iraq, U.S. troops on board the “peak” is only five-storey building blocks, in Afghanistan, and they often pass through the mountains 3,000 meters above sea level, will go into the valley on patrol. However, U.S. troops in Afghanistan are also easy to something, when in many parts of Afghanistan, often due to heavy snow closing off hills for the 5 months not contact with the outside world. This is equivalent to block militants who lived down the road to carry out sabotage. Afghans have little access to radio, television is an absolute rarity, they can rely on the preaching of religious leaders say, tribal leaders, the words and deeds and various armed elements to bring the news about the outside world. Differentiation for the collapse of the Taliban, Afghan support of local government in the United States to carry out “using the work and the treatment-for-arms” initiative to strive for a moderate militants. The United States hopes to become first tribal elders, their allies, and is responsible for selecting suitable for the region’s reconstruction projects. In this way, the United States has supported local government officials in Afghanistan, but also closer relationship with the tribal leaders. Up to now, about 9,000 Taliban fighters in the “interests under the influence,” to surrender their weapons, join the national reconciliation process.

The majority of Pashtuns in Afghanistan, they one by one influential tribe to live. The United States believes that through various reconstruction efforts in Afghanistan, Pashtuns make tribal elders have a voice again, so that when the U.S. military in dealing with the Taliban, “many allies.” Prior to that, the United States has launched a similar policy in Iraq, and has been successful.

Oct 27

Posted by admin in Taliban News | No Comments

Pakistani soldiers 091028In response to large-scale suppression by government forces, Pakistan, the Taliban launched tit for tat “human bomb campaign.” However, this does not soften the Pakistani government to the Taliban, “uprooted” determination. The last two days, in the tribal militants and U.S. cooperation with Pakistan army has been close to Taliban leader’s “lair.” The two sides of the “decisive moment” is coming.

Pakistan Army scored bandit chieftain, “lair”

Wipe out the Taliban inside Pakistan has entered a “crucial stage.” October 24 Pakistani military said they had successfully controlled in the South Waziristan town of koke, where the Taliban stronghold, but also the Taliban leader Abdullah Mehsud and his secretary Hussam’s home. According to reports, Mehsud’s home is the only way to go to the heart of the Taliban.

Pakistani media also disclosed that security forces have captured two senior officials of Punjab province, the Taliban, it is believed the two men masterminded the October 10 attack on Pakistan army headquarters operations.

The Pakistani government since 2001 on the South Waziristan have been carried out three large-scale ground offensive, they have to negotiate a cease-fire ended. The Pakistani government deployed 30000 troops, the fighters, backed by tanks and artillery launched a massive crackdown is determined to eradicate the Taliban forces. The Pakistani government statement said, despite the terrorist attacks this month have resulted in 200 deaths, but they will not stop strikes. Pakistani Prime Minister Gilani said that despite the attacks were violent, but “will not choose to failure.”

UAV assist in the work the U.S. military mobilized

British “Guardian” revealed that Pakistan army has four tribal militants to reach an agreement to ensure that these tribal militants is not against the government, and to assist the military action. A tribe of armed spokesman said that “We are all proud of Pakistanis, and we join together with the military against the barbaric terrorists.” Associated Press also reported earlier that the Pakistani government has with the South Waziristan are two quite influence of anti-US armed tribal leaders signed a secret deal in exchange for their support. Under the agreement, Hazel, and Hafez Maerweina Ziba Bahadur two tribal leaders to remain neutral and allow government troops in the tribal areas under their control through the front line against the Taliban.

Meanwhile, the Pakistani military has also to the NATO International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan request the hope that NATO forces in Afghanistan and South Waziristan on the Afghan side at the junction of fortification against the Pakistani army siege of militants fled to Afghanistan. For large-scale security operations in Pakistan, the U.S. military apparently did not want to stand idly by. AP said the U.S. military unmanned aerial vehicles October 21 air raid in South Waziristan near the North Waziristan tribal region, killing three militants.

Taliban use of “human bomb offensive” counterattack

The face of the powerful Pakistani military offensive, the Taliban fighters began to launch a “human bomb attack,” trying to create an atmosphere of terror among the population, forced the Pakistani government to change its hardline policy. October 20, the International Islamic University Islamabad, there were two suicide bomb attacks, killing at least seven people were killed and 10 injured. The Taliban commander claimed one of these terrorist attacks and declared that the whole of Pakistan is theater. October 23 later, the Northwest Frontier Province capital of Peshawar, an explosion occurred in a restaurant parking lot, resulting in at least 10 people were injured.

The Taliban also is directed at the Pakistan military objectives. October 22, in Islamabad, an attack on a military vehicle, a brigadier general and a soldier were killed and one wounded. October 23, Pakistan military aircraft maintenance and an important base for research and development – Pakistan Aviation Industry Corporation had been a bomb attack on the human body, resulting in six people were killed.

Analysts believe that the Taliban entrenched mountain terrain into the winter after the Pakistani military’s actions will be greatly limited the escalation of terrorist attacks also brought great pressure on the Government of Pakistan. However, the attitude of the Pakistani government’s firm also received the cooperation of the tribal militants, if they can eliminate a large number of Taliban in the winter prior to the “vital forces” and the destruction of their operational network, there is hope for victory.

Quadruple the number of Taliban

Oct 24

Posted by admin in International News, Observers, Taliban News | No Comments

Taliban 20091024Xinhua News Agency, October 9 from Washington, a source said, “The New York Times” site 9, citing a recent U.S. intelligence assessment reported that, according to a rough estimate, the Taliban-led rebel forces in Afghanistan had increased from about 7,000 people in 2006 to the present about 2.5 million people, has almost quadrupled.

Reported that the increase in the numbers at the same time, the Taliban are becoming increasingly sophisticated tactics, operational flexibility, it is difficult to deal with.

Since 2001, “9.11″ incident triggered the war on terror in Afghanistan since the U.S. military and its coalition Zeng Yi-conquering record, winning in this small landlocked country poor and backward, the Taliban and al-Qaida falling apart. For a time, with regard to the war on terror in Afghanistan, the U.S. military victory is full of praise, no one has to break ranks, remaining in hiding looked down on Taliban militants. However, eight years have passed, the U.S. military and its allied forces such as are Sangjiazhiquan been beaten and dispersed remnant Diukuixiejia, end up constantly insisted Obama surge, in order for coalition forces in Afghanistan to maintain immediate reversals.

8-year war on terror, why come to such results?

U.S. troops led by the nose by the Taliban Information

8 years ago, the U.S. military to overcome the complex topography of Afghanistan battlefield conditions, as well as the Taliban guerrilla activities hidden, haunted no trace of the characteristics of continuously improve the operational efficiency of the war on terror. U.S. troops to use a “Joint Surveillance and Target Attack Radar System,” “joint tactical air-Information Station”, “MLQ-40 Prophet land-based signals intelligence system” to refine search militants across Afghanistan to meet the bombers and in real-time precision strike UAV can be described as more and more sophisticated weapons, but the strategic situation has become worse and worse.

The Taliban is not so much because of the scale, there is no front guerrilla warfare, the troops formed in a very backward point where equipment is basically lone warriors. But the Taliban is a weapon based on such a low-end establishment, creating a node for the U.S. flock back to the offensive, attacking tactics after the decentralized and flexible, so that the information the U.S. military command system struggling to cope with, but at the edge of the network operations node, then the bees caught in the siege of the Taliban among the results of the U.S. military in Afghanistan, the pilot of Network Centric Warfare hand, the piecemeal by the Taliban collapsed.

Especially in the past year, the Taliban has changed in the past fear and avoidance of the state of the U.S. information technology and dare to use the U.S. military’s information technology, holding U.S. military nose. Them to the 20th century, 80 years to deal with the practice of the former Soviet Union combined to the modern battlefield, the U.S. military deliberately to expose to the detection system, deliberately attracted the U.S. military patrol, ambushed the U.S. military.

The Taliban also made full use of their own superiority to do a modern version of the countryside surrounding the cities, especially in the U.S. military logistical supply lines to seize the tactical attack the weak points, especially in the capital, Kabul, the main highways in the southern region of the continuous blow to the U.S. into a few soldiers under the military available, many soldiers are worried that the contradiction between supply was cut off.
