Attention Turns Back to Afghanistan
Re "U.S. Troops Gear Up for Bin Laden," Jan. 29: The
Pentagon appears to be using yet another smokescreen,
with the help of the U.S. executive branch, to hide the
fact that Afghanistan will soon become the United
States' next "guerrilla front." It appears obvious that,
given the present and continued threat of attacks on
British and U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan, the goal here
on the part of the Taliban is to increase hostile activities
to draw U.S. and allied troops into another military
occupation (quagmire). By the way, this would cause
significant problems for President Bush during his
election campaign.

Think about it: The United States is running thin on
soldiers and is presently dipping into National Guard
and military reserves. If Afghanistan increases hostile
activities, a large contingent of U.S. and allied soldiers
will be required. Given the inevitable in Afghanistan, the
U.S. has decided to spin off its previous "capture
Saddam Hussein" strategy by applying it in Afghanistan
— the hunt for Osama bin Laden.

It is a big sucker play by the Pentagon and the
executive branch on U.S. citizens. However, the biggest suckers of all will be the
U.S. and its allies as they fall for the Taliban's bait, resulting in thousands of
military and civilian deaths.
