#3 In my humble opinion.... the Obama administration and it's feckless US State Department are pushing billions of USD toward AFG and PAK while bending over smartly for the buggering, in order to extricate the US, if only partially before the 2012 election run-up. As a result, I doubt the Taliban Spring Offensive will amount to much as they use the time to their strategic advantage.
