New US-Led Tora Bora Offensive

Isn't Bin Laden in Pakistan? This is more public relations. Obama was right, there aren't enough troops in Afghanistan to make a difference. The surge is in Iraq. The truth is that the Taliban is growing in strength. That is probably why there is never any mention of Afghanistan as a success:

US and Afghan forces searching for militants on the Pakistani border have inflicted heavy casualties on al-Qaeda and Taleban fighters, officials say.
The governor of Ningrahar province said that the operation in Tora Bora was going "very well" and that al-Qaeda and the Taleban had suffered heavy losses.

But the governor, Nooar Ragha Zwak, said that he could not give precise casualty details from the fighting.

Officials in Ningrahar say the area has many Afghan and foreign militants.
