Late-breaking news suggests that an all-out attack on Afghanistan is
inevitable. Apparently, the US has asked Pakistan for fly-over rights,
which indicates that much more than a cruise missile attack is planned.
Repeated repudiation of limited strike effectiveness also suggests that
the strategy will be to "eliminate" those governments that provide safe
haven to terrorists, or, at the very least, to eliminate one of them as
an example to others. I would not be surprised if bombs and missiles
fall tonight. A follow-up of ground troops with helicopter and fighter
support seems likely. I expect that the Afghanistan of today will be
gone before many weeks have passed.
