The War Continues

While the U.S. tries to get a handle on Iraq, the war against those linked to the September 11 attacks continues:

"The Afghan base at the Khost airport came under heavy attack last night by Taliban Mujahideen who, instead of firing rockets and slipping in the forests, waged a continuous operation using heavy weapons. The attack started at Suhoor, the morning meal before Muslims fast for the day during Ramadan, and lasted for three hours. Jasarat is reporting fourteen soldiers in the base were killed and another 23 wounded."
