"Any talk of stationing or deploying Russian military assets in
Afghanistan is out of the question and has never been the subject of
any considerations."


===========================================

Frickin hilarious Pentagon "talking points"
(below).
What a bunch of idiot clown nerd-wannabees.
It's just plain embarrassing to be an American
any more. We're no different than that North
Korean Kim Il nut.

Wikileaks cracks NATO's Master Narrative for Afghanistan

WIKILEAKS EDITORIAL

Wikileaks has cracked the encryption to a key document relating to the
war in Afghanistan. The document, titled "NATO in Afghanistan: Master
Narrative", details the "story" NATO representatives are to give--and
to avoid giving--to journalists.

The encrypted document, which is dated October 6, and believed to be
current, can be found on the Pentagon Central Command website
"oneteam.centcom.mil":

http://oneteam.centcom.mil/isc/Shared%20Documents/NATO%20Master%20Narrative.doc

The password is progress, which perhaps reflects the Pentagon's desire
to stay on-message, even to itself.

Among the revelations, which we encourage the press to review in
detail, is Jordan's presense as secret member of the US lead
occupation force, the ISAF.

Jordan is a middle eastern monarchy, backed by the US, and
historically the CIA's closest partner in its extraordinary renditions
program. In Jordan, "the practice of torture is routine", according to
a January 2007 report by UN special investigator for torture, Manfred
Nowak.[1]

NATO spokespersons are instructed to conceal Jordan's involvement in
the ISAF coalition. Publicly, Jordan withdrew in 2001. It does not
appear on the Feb 13 NATO public list of ISAF member states.[2]

Some other instructions on what not to say are:

* Any decision on the end date/end state will be taken by the
respective national and/or Alliance political committee. Under no
circumstances should the mission end-date be a topic for speculation
in public by any NATO/ISAF spokespeople.
* The term "compensation" is inappropriate and should not be used
because it brings with it legal implications that do not apply.
* Any talk of stationing or deploying Russian military assets in
Afghanistan is out of the question and has never been the subject of
any considerations.
* Only if pressed: ISAF forces are frequently fired at from inside
Pakistan, very close to the border. In some cases defensive fire is
required, against specific threats. Wherever possible, such fire is
pre-coordinated with the Pakistani military.

Altogether four classified or restricted NATO documents on the
Pentagon Central Command (CENTCOM) site were discovered to share the
'progress' password. Wikileaks has decrypted the documents and
released them in full:

* NATO Media Operations Centre: NATO in Afghanistan: Master
Narrative, 6 Oct 2008
* ISAF Afghanistan Theatre Strategic Communications Strategy, 25
Oct 2008
* NATO-ISAF Afghanistan Strategic Communications External
Linkages, 20 Oct 2008
* NATO-ISAF Strategic Communications Ends, Ways and Means, slide,
20 Oct 2008

Now that's progress.
