OBAMA'S BRAWN

The people in america are simply being hoodwinked by the 80 days acting president obama.the americans are oblivious and are enthralled by the puffery of "yes we can", & "change we can believe in".but obama more or less following the same footmark of marciless butchery set by the former president(george w bush) in afghanistan.obama's war strategy with them (better known as obama's 'surge') is not at all a 'redefinition' or any revolution but is a mere rectification of the vocabulary used in times of bush.the "good war" strategy (against the taliban) is nothing more than a misnomer.

obama's achievement in afghan warfare until now:

1) under obama u.s/north atlantic treaty organisation (NATO) are now relying more on the ground attacks by foreign troops than on the 4-10 times more deadly air strikes,(which according to them,used to take more lives of the civilians).this is the only remarkable change in the execution of afghan war.
as a result of which, the monthly death toll of afghan civilians have lowered.but it has adversely affected the occupation forces whose lethality has increased by leaps and bounds.in october 2008,91-97 afghan civilians were killed by u.s/nato force whereas on the other hand 19 of the troops were being killed in the battle field.this ratio has changed over time...& the number has declined to 36-38 for the civilians but at the same time has become 28 for the forces in march 2009.[source:icasualties.org].thus by reducing air strikes foreign forces kill fewer civilians but in turn they fall prey to thir own methodology in such endeavours.

2) the night time raids (especially),by the foreign forces,& the inhuman atrocities & the indiscriminate killings committed by them during such raids ensures the turning of many civilians into a talib with the want of retaliation.as they now prefer to withstand the forces rather than relying on their 'useless' government and be victimised.for e.g.,on 24january,2009 raid in Laghman in which 22 civilians were killed.Ghazi Gul,an intelligence officer, lost his father,mother,brother,cousins,nephew,nieces.on 18th february Gul told chicago tribune,"If we talk about the americans they are my enemies.And if i can, i will hurt them".

3)after series of DRONE attacks, when one hits the target actually,it does never imply the triumph of the troops over militant as the former have alrady killed thousands of innocent afghans and pashtuns.here comes the role of the international forces,under whichfake reports and distorted facts are published.it is reported many times that some number of militants are killed while the fact is they were not the militants but civilians.
thus obama's government is probably giving birth to new generations of talibans in huge numbers...which is more dangerous as the are not tagged by any extrimist label and so cannot be identified easily.they remain admixed into the general crowd (for the loss of their homeground),with exceptional ideas of revenge belied in their mind & soul.


obama's futile efforts:

his persuasionfor european troops and monies has failed miserably in Strasbourg where the recent NATO meetings took place.because europeans cannot envisage any threats from the talibans and so consider this to be exclusively america's affair.

in august,2008 when 12 french soldiers were killed,two-third of french citizens opposed to any french involvement in the afghan conflict.[source: BBC news,19 august,2008].after being alienated from these supports,u.s is left with only 21000 troops combating the talibans,which means nothing in a country where experts estimate that 500000 foreign troops would be necessary for a meaningful battle.

therefore,are the officials in u.s pushing their troops to the fate of fatality,knowingly or unknowingly?are they preparing grounds prone to the more future talibani attacks?what will america gain when the world will turn out to be a hell?
