Karzai criticises foreign tactics
Afghanistan's President Hamid Karzai has urged the international community to reassess how it is fighting the Taleban and their allies.

He said he was not surprised that so many people were being killed in southern Afghanistan.

His comments came as the US military said four more of its soldiers had been killed in north-eastern Afghanistan.

Meanwhile, al-Qaeda number two Ayman al-Zawahiri has called on Afghans to fight foreign forces in their country.

1. I resent that Karzei recently came to Holland to lobby for wavering
Edited on Thu Jun-22-06 07:51 AM by DemExpat
support here to send Dutch troops to southern Afghanistan this summer, on a televised interview slightly mocking and ridiculing the Dutch for their fears for troops encountering mounting violence.
They are, after all, going to help re-build, not for fighting off insurgents.

He kept saying how safe the area was.....and hinted that the Dutch were being cowardly.

:puke:

6. President Hamid Karzai called for a reassessment of the U.S.led coalition
Edited on Thu Jun-22-06 08:45 PM by Veronica.Franco
KABUL, Afghanistan - President Hamid Karzai called Thursday for a reassessment of the U.S.-led coalition’s strategy for fighting terrorism, saying the current approach of hunting down militants does not focus on the root causes such as money, training, and motivation.

Karzai’s comments came after a new video from Al-Qaida’s No. 2 leader Ayman al-Zawahri surfaced and urged Afghans to rise up against U.S.-led forces in their country.

Meanwhile, four U.S. soldiers were killed Wednesday in combat in eastern Afghanistan, the military said.
