Afghanistan

Great stuff out there about Afghanistan.

First, SmallWarsJournal.com has a nice synopsis on General Barry McCaffrey's after action report. Great American soldiers, lots of hard work to do, and the US needs a LOT more help from allies.

Second, the Wall Street Journal has a great piece on the increasing use of suicide bombers there and how those bombers come to take on the task. Fascinating. (NOVA students can access the article for free through the library - go to Factiva).
