And so it begins: the great Obama "surge" in Afghanistan. Before withdrawing
a single soldier from Iraq, Barack Obama is throwing 17,500 more troops into
the boiling Afghan cauldron. The deployment is the first installment of what
Obama aides affirm could be a much larger escalation down the road: as soon
as the vaunted "strategic review" of Afghan policy – led by hawks like Joe
Biden, Richard Holbrook and General David "Pre-President" Petraeus – is
completed.
Most of the new troops are apparently going to be sent on a fool's errand to
eradicate the only means of support of poor Afghans: the opium crop.
Previous such efforts by American forces and their allies have produced
nothing but more poverty, anger, extremism and support for the insurgency.
And whatever the mission, increased troop levels and military action have
led invariably to steep rises in civilian casualties – which, in turn,
produce more poverty, anger, extremism and support for the insurgency.

In the age of computerized high-tech warfare, it is not just American
hardware available on the black market. Now there is also vital technology
and information up for grabs and -- as military officials here and in the
U.S. fear -- leaking into the wrong hands in this region where the Taliban
and elements of Al Qaeda have a known presence.
I was recently able to purchase a U.S. military laptop for $650 from a small
kiosk, which is known as the "Sitara Market," on the western edge of the
sprawling open-air markets on the edge of Peshawar.
The laptop, which has clear U.S. military markings and serial numbers,
contained restricted U.S. military information, as well as software for
military platforms, the identities of numerous military personnel and
information about weaknesses and flaws in American military vehicles being
employed in the war in Afghanistan.

After two monumental failures that never should have even been initiated,
you would think that we would have learned from history but, from all
appearances, we have learned nothing. The U.S., teetering on the edge of
national insolvency, is now on the verge of upping the ante in Afghanistan
with increases in troop deployment. The intent is to wind down in Iraq and
transfer military forces to fight in a nation where every invader in history
has failed to achieve their objectives.

Peshawar, Pakistan, has always had a reputation as a smuggler's paradise,
the perfect place to score a 3,000 rupee Kalashnikov knockoff, a rusty
Lee-Enfield or a nice block of hash. And as GlobalPost correspondent Shahan
Mufti discovered, it's also a place where you can buy some off-the-shelf
U.S. military equipment.
Mufti recently paid a visit to the Sitara Market on the city's western edge,
and was able to pick up a ruggedized U.S. military laptop for $650. The
laptop, which looks like it is part of a vehicle diagnostics kit, came with
clear U.S. military markings. According to the story, the laptop also stored
"identities of numerous military personnel and information about weaknesses
and flaws in American military vehicles being employed in the war in
Afghanistan."

Thousands of US weapons, including assault rifles and grenade launchers, may
be in Taliban or Al-Qaeda hands in Afghanistan because of lax controls,
congressional auditors warned on Thursday.
The Pentagon has failed to track an estimated 87,000 weapons given to Afghan
security forces, one-third of the 242,000 shipped by the US government
between December 2004 and June 2008, the Government Accountability Office
said.
A 46-page report by the GAO, the non-partisan investigative arm of Congress,
said there had been no monitoring of a further 135,000 weapons donated by
NATO allies to the poorly paid and corruption-rife Afghan army and police.

The cost of Britain's military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq in the
past year has soared to more than £4.5bn, an annual increase of more than
50%, figures released today reveal.
Operations in southern Afghanistan accounted for a little over half of the
£4.5bn, nearly £2.6bn, compared with £1.5bn last year. Most of the money was
spent on providing soldiers with tougher armoured vehicles to try to cope
with the growing threat of roadside bombs.
More surprisingly, as the government prepares to withdraw from Basra, the
cost of Britain's military presence in southern Iraq increased to nearly
£2bn compared with less than £1.5bn last year, according to figures released
by the Ministry of Defence.

One week after the U.S. Army announced record suicide rates among its

The Army said 24 soldiers are believed to have committed suicide in January

Early into the second year of the Afghanistan war, in November 2002, a
retired US Army general, William Odom, appeared on C-SPAN's "Washington
Journal" program and told viewers: "Terrorism is not an enemy. It cannot be
defeated. It's a tactic. It's about as sensible to say we declare war on
night attacks and expect we're going to win that war. We're not going to win
the war on terrorism."
But the "war on terrorism" rubric - increasingly shortened to the even
vaguer "war on terror" - kept holding enormous promise for a warfare state
of mind. Early on, the writer Joan Didion saw the blotting of the horizon
and said so: "We had seen, most importantly, the insistent use of Sept. 11
to justify the reconception of America's correct role in the world as one of
initiating and waging virtually perpetual war."
