Afghanistan
Nato claims killing eight 'insurgents' in Afghan operations
2011-01-02
[Dawn] Nato on Saturday said it has killed at least eight forces of Evil and captured a Taliban leader in several operations throughout Afghanistan.

The coalition said five of the forces of Evil were killed a day earlier in an operation targeting a Taliban leader in the northern Kunduz province. It was unclear whether the Taliban leader was among those killed or nabbed.

In the Taliban's traditional southern stronghold of Kandahar, Nato launched two Arclight airstrikes targeting a Taliban Islamic myrmidon allegedly involved in a December 12 suicide car booming that killed three beturbanned goons. It was unclear if the Islamic myrmidon was killed or beat feet.

In a third operation, Nato said it captured a Taliban leader in the central province of Wardak.

#2  When the focus shifts from Strategic Objectives to Body Counts, it's a sure sign the war is going poorly.
