Asked if the United States might send still more troops to Afghanistan, if the Obama surge is not succeeding by year’s end, Vice President Joe Biden answered, "I do not believe so." So, that is it. Biden is saying the 100,000 U.S. troops in theater or on the way is our limit. If Kabul and the Afghan army fail with this investment of American forces, they will be permitted to fail. All the chips we are going to commit are now on the table. And a series of critical deadlines is approaching. By the end of August, all U.S. combat troops are to be out of Iraq. Only 50,000 "training troops" are to remain, but all U.S. forces are scheduled to be withdrawn by the end of ...
Gates, Mullen Blast WikiLeaks for Disclosures

Top Pentagon officials assailed WikiLeaks on Thursday for its release of thousands of pages of leaked documents covering the war in Afghanistan -- at one point even accusing the man behind the whistle-blower website of having "blood ... on his hands." Defense Secretary Robert Gates and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Adm. Mike Mullen issued some of their harshest criticisms yet of the leak, which appeared to include the names of Afghans enlisted as classified U.S. military informants. WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange has defended the release, but Mullen dismissed his arguments. "Mr. Assange can say whatever he likes about the greater good he thinks he and his source are ...

As of Thursday, July 29, 2010, at least 1,122 members of the U.S. military had died in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Uzbekistan as a result of the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan in late 2001, according to an Associated Press count. At least 890 military personnel have died in Afghanistan as a result of hostile action, according to the military's numbers. The Defense Department's tally was last updated Friday at 10 a.m. EDT. Outside of Afghanistan, the department reports at least 92 more members of the U.S. military died in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Of those, 10 were the result of hostile action.

France declares war against al-Qaida

France has declared war on al-Qaida, and matched its fighting words with a first attack on a base camp of the terror network's North African branch, after the terror network killed a French aid worker it took hostage in April. The declaration and attack marked a shift in strategy for France, usually discrete about its behind-the-scenes battle against terrorism. "We are at war with al-Qaida," Prime Minister Francois Fillon said Tuesday, a day after President Nicolas Sarkozy announced the death of 78-year-old hostage Michel Germaneau. The humanitarian worker had been abducted April 20 or 22 in Niger by al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb, and was later taken to Mali, officials ...
White House proposal would ease FBI access to records of Internet activity

The Obama administration is seeking to make it easier for the FBI to compel companies to turn over records of an individual's Internet activity without a court order if agents deem the information relevant to a terrorism or intelligence investigation. The administration wants to add just four words -- "electronic communication transactional records" -- to a list of items that the law says the FBI may demand without a judge's approval. Government lawyers say this category of information includes the addresses to which an Internet user sends e-mail; the times and dates e-mail was sent and received; and possibly a user's browser history. It does not include, the lawyers ...

The House's vote yesterday on emergency funding for the Afghanistan war shows a significant eroding of support for President Obama's war policy -- from members of his own Democratic Party. There were 102 Democrats voting against the $33 billion in war funding. That's more than three times the number of Democrats (32) who voted against a similar funding bill in June 2009. (This year's war funding bill passed, 308-114.) Among those voting "no" this time: prominent liberals such as Henry Waxman of California and Ed Markey of Massachusetts, and 30 members of the Congressional Black Caucus, including Jesse Jackson Jr. of Illinois and Maxine Waters of California.

The administration says it was surprised and angry at the Lockerbie bomber's "compassionate" release. Now a letter reveals that it actually lobbied for it. Was this malicious intent or mere incompetence? Last week, at a joint press conference with British Prime Minister David Cameron, President Obama was asked what he thought about a possible Senate investigation into the "Lockerbie bomber stuff" — namely that British Petroleum, among its other sins, lobbied the British government to release convicted Lockerbie bomber Abdelbaset Ali al-Megrahi in order to win oil contracts from the Libyan government. Obama replied: "I think all of us here in the United ...

WASHINGTON—The House of Representatives on Tuesday approved $59 billion to fund the Afghan war and other emergency spending, sending the bill to President Barack Obama's desk after brushing aside revelations contained in a cache of leaked military documents. The war's unusual politics were reflected in the 308-114 vote. While 102 Democrats defected, objecting to a war prosecuted by a president of their own party, 160 Republicans supported the measure despite their frequent opposition to Mr. Obama's policies. The debate was colored by Sunday's release of 92,000 documents by the group WikiLeaks, but it didn't appear to affect the outcome. The leaked military ...

WASHINGTON — Cooperation among Iran, Al Qaeda and other Sunni extremist groups is more extensive than previously known to the public, according to details buried in the tens of thousands of military intelligence documents released by an independent group Sunday. U.S. officials and Middle East analysts said some of the most explosive information contained in the WikiLeaks documents detail Iran's alleged ties to the Taliban and Al Qaeda, and the facilitating role Tehran may have played in providing arms from sources as varied as North Korea and Algeria. The officials have for years received reports of Iran smuggling arms to the Taliban. The WikiLeaks documents, however, appear to ...

NATO says there is no evidence of casualties beyond insurgents. A statement from Karzai's office said Friday's attack killed people in Sangin district's Regi village. Karzai called on NATO forces to make avoiding civilian casualties in their top priorities.

WASHINGTON (AFP) – Bombshell intelligence leaks on the Afghan war will likely deepen public pessimism over US hopes of victory and heighten President Barack Obama's political exposure over the bleak conflict, analysts say. The tens of thousands of leaked files have already added heat to slow boiling skepticism of Obama's war strategy in Congress, including among Democrats, and will cement suspicion of imperfect ally Pakistan. At first sight, accounts of an undermanned US force, tested by extreme battlefield conditions and for years saddled with an unclear strategy, validate many of Obama's criticisms of his predecessor George W. Bush's war effort. But public opinion, ...

One of the first acts the president advanced after becoming our 44th president was the passage of the more than 1,000 page stimulus bill. A bill, by the way, that most lawmakers did not read and one that the president promised would create enough jobs to prevent the national unemployment rate from rising above 8%. It is an undisputed fact that our national unemployment rate continues to hover around 9.5% and many economists argue that if you take ...

New Jobless Claims Jump by 37,000 After Hitting 2-Year Low Published July 22, 2010 | Associated Press WASHINGTON -- New jobless claims in the U.S. jumped last week by the most since February, reversing a sharp fall two weeks ago. The rise is partly a result of seasonal factors but also reflects the job market's weakness. The Labor Department says new claims for unemployment insurance jumped by 37,000 to a seasonally adjusted 464,000. Analysts expected a smaller rise, according to a survey by Thomson Reuters. The sharp increase comes after claims fell steeply two weeks ago to their lowest level since August 2008. But much of that drop was driven by temporary seasonal factors and not ...
