File under: Taliban

#1 Gen. Raziq rose to prominence after 2001 when he was serving as the police chief of Spin Boldak district with his activities prompting dread among the Taliban fighters.

A Whitey Bulger type of "dread among the TB" and everyone else I might add. Make no mistake, Raziq and his henchmen called the shots in Kandahar. Raziq's TB detainees seldom made it to U.S. custody or the Parwan detention center at Bagram. Once they arrived at Raziq's fortress compound, they were never seen or heard from again. If AFG is to have a future, men like Generals Raziq and Dostum must forge and enforce it. Unfortunately, the language of the merciless warlord is the only language understood in that region.

#2 If AFG is to have a future, men like Generals Raziq and Dostum must forge it.

That's a pretty big IF.
