Two dozen more Talibunnies cavorting in Paradise
Afghan and US-led coalition troops killed about two dozen Taleban fighters in a clash in southern Afghanistan, the military said Tuesday.

The combined forces came under attack from rockets and small arms during operations Monday near the village of Chenar, located 35 kilometres north of the city of Kandahar. Coalition air support dropped bombs on three enemy positions during the ensuing four-hour firefight. No casualties were reported among the allied forces or the Afghan civilian population.
Two dozen here, 30 drowned there, 60 more the other day -- oh yeah, it's the start of the dreaded Taliban summer offensive.
I'm not sure how long we can take a pounding like this.
