- Dear Mr. Rense:
-
- A classic tactic of Afghan resistance used against enemies
in the past, once again surfaced, this time against US and NATO forces.
The onslaught of attacks against US and NATO forces and their mounting
losses point to the success of the Afghan resistance and the failure of
US occupation of Afghanistan.
- Once Again, I would like to add, no one should have been
surprised by my previous report in which I asserted that 1200 US soldiers
lost their lives and 1500 have been wounded critically in Afghanistan
- The following reports point to the daily failure and
"liberation" attempts of the United States in Afghanistan.
-
- Sources for the below news items: Azzam Publication,
KAVKAZ Center and personal contact inside Afghanistan and Pakistan.
-
- Sincerely,

- US Helicopter Shot Down
-
- ZABUL (AZZAM): On Monday Mujahideen units shot down a
US helicopter en route to Kabul from Kandahar killing seven US soldiers
on board including a US Commander. Mujahideen units fired an old Russian
surface to air missile at the US helicopter when it was between the cities
Safa and Shah Joon.
-
- In response US F-16 and B-52 bombers rained bombs on
the region and adjacent areas such including various regions of Ghazni
province and Zabul. The US forces used the bombing as a cover and in the
lull transported the dead Americans and debris of the destroyed helicopter
back to their base.
-
- However, unsurprisingly and totally in keeping with US
policy of deceit and denial which has been the trademark of US activities
in Afghanistan, a US military spokesman stated that the incident occurred
due to technical failure.

- Rocket Attacks Kill Four Coalition Soldiers
-
- SARA-E-NORANG (AZZAM): On Monday a series of rockets
were fired at a convoy of Coalition forces killing four Coalition troops
and critically injuring a further six Afghan troops loyal to Hamid Karzai.
The injured were transported to a government hospital and pools of blood
were seen on the road.
-
- In a separate incident only one Coalition soldier was
injured by a rocket attack on a Coalition military jeep. However, as the
rocket did not explode the Coalition soldiers managed to escape unharmed.
-
- Taliban Mujahideen attacked Coalition troops on Monday
killing two and taking a further THREE AS CAPTIVES. Zawar had been the
base of well known Taliban Commander Jalal Uddin Haqqani, but is currently
occupied by Coalition forces.
-
- Coalition forces had placed Afghan militia men on patrol
around the base whilst they slept, however the Afghans on their pay roll
went to sleep, upon which Taliban Mujahideen pounced killing two and taking
a further three as prisoners.
-
- At the time of going to press, there have been some reports
of missile attacks at Khost airport, however at present no further details
are available.

- 15 U.S. Soldiers Killed in Battle with Badshah Khan Zardan's
Militia
-
- MEERANSHAH: In a ferocious battle between men loyal to
Badshah Khan Zardan and US forces 15 US soldiers have been killed and over
20 sustained life threatening injuries. The incident occurred when US forces
attempted to take control of Wazi check-post, however Badshah Khan Zardan's
militia thought otherwise and began to blindly fire at the US forces. In
the fire fight Badshah Khan's eldest son was killed together with twelve
of his men. Badshah Khan's second son was seriously injured. The check-post
is still occupied by Badshah Khan's militia.
-
- Badshah Khan was a supporter of Zahir Shah and had cooperated
with the US in the past, however the last year has seen differences arise
between the two. Heavy bombing is expected in the area soon.
