Afghan and NATO Forces On The Offensive Against Taliban

   It is on against the Taliban as the Afghan forces along with the ones from NATO have launched an offensive which will be the biggest one yet.

    This little game will involve some 1,000 Afghan security personnel and 4,500 Nato troops when it hits full swing.

    Operation Achilles, as it is being called, was launched after the Afghan government requested it in order to rid some areas of drug traffickers , Taliban extremist, and other groups who are trying to destabilize the Afghan government.

       It is admitted that some of the top opium areas are beyond government control so I guess that means the next cultivating season will be another record breaker!

    I wonder how much opium the CIA exports into this country now? I'm kidding but it is not like it couldn't happen as they have been known to deal cocaine in the past.
