U.S. losing control of allies in Afganistan.
No hope in controlling enemies.

<font color=brown>KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Forces of a northern strongman overran the capital of a remote Afghan province Thursday, the interior minister said, in a burst of factional violence undermining the authority of U.S.-backed President Hamid Karzai.

Troops loyal to ethnic Uzbek warlord Abdul Rashid Dostum swept into Maymana, the center of Faryab province, some 260 miles northwest of Kabul, on Thursday morning, Interior Minister Ali Ahmad Jalali said.

The fighting was bad news for Karzai, and sure to lead to deep concern in Washington over the future stability of Afghanistan, just as American forces are facing a surge of violence in Iraq. </font>
