[quote] The man, who some sources report was a Taliban infiltrator dressed to look like part of the Afghan police force, opened fire at the officers at a checkpoint in the southwestern province of Nimroz.
"Unfortunately 11 of our brave national police were killed in this cowardly attack," Nimroz governor Abdul Karim Brahawi told AFP.
"Initial investigation shows the shooter was a Taliban infiltrator. He was also killed when police returned fire," Brahawi said. [/quote]

"For lethal Bibi, that’s obviously not enough. It doesn’t matter that technically and logistically Israel simply does not have what it takes to conduct a successful strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities. Take a look at this concise infographics. For starters, Israel does not have the latest generation MOP GBU-57A bunker buster bombs to hit deep underground Iranian installations. It does not have the Northrop Grumman’s B-2 stealth bombers to deliver them. And it does not have enough Lockheed Martin KC-130 aerial tankers (only 5; the US has 80) for refueling its attacking F-15s and F-16s. There is no evidence the Obama administration will be authorizing the Pentagon to supply all of the above to the Bibi-Barak duo anytime soon. And let’s introduce a little bit of sanity into this madness, courtesy of Russian foreign minister Primakov, who tells it like it is:; go ahead, attack Iran; and then, inevitably, they will go for a bomb.
Is Turkey about to enter the 9th (Kurdish) circle of hell? Clinton has just been to Turkey in a very Libyan “We came, we saw, he died” mood; it’s as if she was replaying her Angel of Death role, presiding over the imminent demise of Assad. Not so fast....;}
Iraq had NO problems with electricity until the Battle of Baghdad Airport.
Since then......
"When we follow the game at home, every five minutes the electricity is gone," said Lami, a 37-year-old truck driver who was at a cafe in central Baghdad to watch Olympic football.
The Iraqi national grid only supplies a few hours of electricity per day, interrupted by multi-hour outages, and Iraqis either have to make up the shortfall with private generators or do without electricity during the cuts.
"The electricity in Iraq has become like a chronic disease, and all the people are suffering," said Lami, an ardent football fan who was sitting with five of his children around a table near a television showing the Olympics, smoking flavored tobacco from a water pipe."
