- David Petraeus: Born in the USA
Unlike his president, the general is already the closest thing to an all-American heroDavid Petraeus, the son of a Dutch sea captain who emigrated to the US after the second world war, has no need to produce his birth certificate to prove that he was born in the USA. Unlike his president, the general is already the closest thing to an all-American hero. The Republican nomination in 2016 could be his for the taking and, to this end, a stint heading the CIA – widely trailed yesterday – would do his political ambitions no harm. Articulate, charming and driven – the 58-year-old can still outrun his marine escorts around Hyde Park – this philosopher king is adept at marketing his own brand.Whether that story is quite the star-studded success that Gen Petraeus's CV suggests is less clear. Widely credited with turning the war in Iraq around, he was in charge of two disasters, the capture of Mosul in 2003, only to lose it to insurgents nine months later, and the training of Iraq's army, a process that involved the disappearance at one stage of its procurement budget. Neither is the war in Afghanistan going according to the counter-insurgency rule book that he rewrote. He is due in Washington this week to present his plans for the troop reductions which are scheduled for July. The draw down of US troops is expected to be modest and will be spread over a longer period, a reflection of how hesitant the Pentagon are about the territorial gains made in Helmand and Kandahar.The flaw of the strategy he has been pursuing is a political one. After all this time, there is still no state strong enough to occupy the areas that US troops have been clearing and holding. Local support is tentative and conditional. The handover of US military control to an Afghan one will still mean replacing 彼の大統領とは異なり、一般的にはすでに、すべてのアメリカのheroDavidペトレイアスに最も近いものは、第二次世界大戦後の米国に移住したオランダの船長の息子は、彼がいたことを証明するために、彼の出生証明書を生成する必要がない米国で生まれた

- Afghan police officers killed in checkpoint attack
Eight killed and one missing near city of Lashkar Gah, which is pioneering transition from Nato to Afghan controlEight policemen were killed in an attack early Wednesday near a southern city that is seen as a pioneer in transition from Nato to Afghan control over security, an Afghan police commander said.General Nabi Jan Mullahkhail, deputy regional commander in the south, said the pre-dawn attack targeted a police checkpoint near Lashkar Gah in Helmand province, where the insurgency has strongholds.A further three police officers were wounded in the attack and another was missing, said Mullahkhail. The missing soldier was part of the group manning the checkpoint and authorities were investigating whether he might have been involved in the attack, he added.On Tuesday, a suicide bomber rammed a vehicle packed with explosives into a police truck in Lashkar Gah, killing two civilians. The Taliban claimed responsibility for that attack.Lashkar Gah was one of five provincial capitals and two provinces chosen to start the transition from Nato to Afghan control this summer. The international coalition hopes to use the security zone around the provincial capital and the central Helmand river valley as a foothold to push Afghan governance into outlying areas. Nato plans to withdraw combat forces from Afghanistan by the end of 2014.In a separate incident on Wednesday, a New Zealand special forces soldier was killed during a gun battle with suspected insurgents in a compound near Afghanistan's capital.Lt Gen Rhys Jones, the chief of New Zealand's defence force, said the soldier was shot in the head and died soon after at a medical facility.

- Helmand Province's peace garden
Local gardeners have created a tranquil space in the military headquarters of Lashkar Gah, AfghanistanAs a member of the army combat camera team based in Afghanistan, my role is to cover everything that the military does, whether that's a full-scale helicopter-borne assault, or a female engagement team teaching Afghan women how better to look after their family's animals.I served 12 years in the RAF as a policewoman, spending time with the army on deployments in Northern Ireland, Bosnia and Iraq. After I left the RAF, I completed a master's degree in photojournalism, joined the Territorial Army as a photographer, and volunteered to come out with the CCT to Afghanistan.Finding this garden was a complete shock. It's so unexpected, a flower garden that has been cultivated and grown by local people, in the middle of a military headquarters – Lashkar Gah is the main headquarters for Task Force Helmand, in Helmand Province. The garden was started by some British civilians, about three years ago, and I think the intention was just some flower beds outside the main building. Then three gardeners were employed who decided they wanted their own areas to cultivate, and now there are three gardens within the space. These men have made the gardens what they are; they come in, spend all day working, then quietly go home again.What they have created is such a contrast to the very hot, dusty and sometimes extremely hostile environment of Afghanistan. They have planted a combination of local flowers and seeds that have been sent over from the UK. The hollyhocks are pretty impressive - some of them are taller than most of the people on the base – and the roses are startling, because you don't expect to see an English rose in the middle of Afghanistan.AfghanistanMilitaryguardian.co.uk &co ローカルの庭師は、AfghanistanAsは、アフガニスタンに拠点を置く陸軍の戦闘カメラチームのメンバー、私の役割は、軍がそのかどうかをフルスケールのヘリコプターを媒介と攻撃だということすべてをカバーすることですラシュカーリーんの軍司令部の静かな空間を作成している家族のanimals.Iは北アイルランド、ボスニア、イラクでの展開、軍との時間を費やして、警官として空軍で12年間服役した後、またはアフガン女性を教える女性の監査チームは、どのように改善を見て
- Suicide bomber kills two in Afghanistan capital
Taliban claims responsibility for attack on minibus carrying intelligence service workersA suicide bomber on a motorbike blew himself up next to a minibus carrying intelligence service staff in the Afghan capital today, killing at least two people and wounding more than 20.The Taliban claimed responsibility for the rush-hour blast, which shattered the windows of dozens of houses and buildings on a busy street in the western part of Kabul.Afghan security officials are frequently the target of bombings and shootings. Last month, two insurgents strapped with explosives ambushed a bus carrying Afghan army officers on the outskirts of Kabul, killing five and wounding nine.Mohammad Zahir, the capital's chief of criminal investigation, said today's bomber struck the bus as it carried the intelligence service employees to work, killing two. The head of Kabul hospitals at the public health ministry, Kabir Amir, said one body had been received so far, and that more than 20 people had been wounded.Police and intelligence service officers cordoned off the site of the explosion, where the suicide bomber's body and his destroyed motorbike lay next to the damaged bus.President Hamid Karzai condemned the blast.Nato sent more than 30,000 extra troops into Afghanistan last year to put pressure on the Taliban's traditional strongholds in the south, but the insurgents have extended their operations elsewhere, striking across the north and east.An extra contingent of 1,400 US marines is to be deployed in the coming months in the southern province of Helmand, which along with neighbouring Kandahar province have experienced some of the fiercest fighting.Today's suicide bombing was the second claimed by the Taliban this week.

- Libya: Caught in a vice | Editorial
Airstrikes and arrest warrants may suggest the jaws are closing around Gaddafi - but they could just as easily be losing their gripIf a vice is indeed closing in around Muammar Gaddafi, as General Sir David Richards, the chief of defence staff claimed, then its jaws have some way to travel before they meet. They could just as easily be losing their grip. In two months the general has swung from justified caution about the aims – clashing with Downing Street over whether the object of the mission was regime change – to the opposite stance of pressurising other Nato countries to escalate the bombing and widen the target list. Why the change? It could be that after 2,000 strikes, 300 of them British, the general realises that the mission is no closer to its achieving its aims and that the performances of his forces in Libya could be subject to the same sort of critical scrutiny that Basra and Helmand attracted, particularly from the Americans. Or his planes could be running out of targets.The rhetorical vice was given a further twist yesterday by the chief prosecutor of the international criminal court who named Gaddafi, his son Saif and his brother-in-law and intelligence chief Abdullah Senussi as war crimes suspects. In both the targetting of airstrikes and in Luis Moreno-Ocampo's presentation of requests for arrest warrants, a theme has emerged: the west is letting it be known that it is getting help from insiders, either recently emerged, such as Moussa Koussa, who is telling Nato where the bunkers are, or serving officials contacting the prosecutor's office from Tripoli. The subtext of this is that rents are emerging in the tent of Gaddafi loyalists. Let us hope they are. But what if they are not?Mr Moreno-Ocampo said his investigation into war crimes was continuing, 空爆、逮捕令状は、ジョーがカダフィ大佐の周り閉鎖している示唆 - し。。u200b。。u200bかし、彼らは簡単に一般的なサーデビッドリチャーズと副は確かにMuammarのカダフィ大佐の周りに閉じているのgripIfを失うことになる可能性がある防衛参謀長は、顎があるし、主張いくつかの方法は、彼らが会う前に移動する

The American victims were training Afghan police near the Pakistan border at the time.February 2011Three German troops were killed by an Afghan attacker who shot them at close quarters at their base in northern Baghlan province.

- Two US soldiers killed in friendly-fire drone attack in Afghanistan
American soldiers killed in Helmand province by Predator drone after being mistaken for Taliban fighters by US troopsTwo members of the US military were accidentally killed last week in a drone attack, the first American victims of the unmanned aircraft, NBC has reported.The two had been on foot and were approaching Helmand province's Sangin base, centre of some of the fiercest fighting in Afghanistan over the last decade. They were mistaken for the Taliban by marines, who were under fire at the time and who called in a missile strike from a Predator drone, NBC said.The Pentagon is refusing to confirm or deny the story, saying that the incident is still under investigation. It reported last week that the two were killed but did not say where or how.The two killed were named by the Pentagon as Marine Staff Sergeant Jeremy Smith, 26, from Texas and Navy Corpsman Benjamin Rast, 23, from Michigan.The US has increasingly been using drones in both Afghanistan and Pakistan against suspected Taliban and al-Qaida targets, a controversial policy mainly because of the number of innocent civilians killed.The marines under fire had been watching pictures of the battlefield being fed to them by the Predator. NBC said they saw a number of 'hotspots' – infra-red images – moving towards them and assumed, wrongly, they were the Taliban.The hotspots had, in fact, been Smith and Rast, part of a unit sent to reinforce those under fire.US militaryAfghanistanUnited StatesEwen MacAskillguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2011 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

David Cameron has made his first visit to Afghanistan as prime minister. But what difference will the new government in Britain make to the UK's military strategy? The last government was accused of failing to equip the armed services for the job. Will the new government do any better?I'm joined in the studio by the Guardian's security editor, Richard Norton-Taylor, and in Kabul by our Afghanistan correspondent, Jon Boone.Chief political correspondent Nicholas Watt accompanied the prime minister on his trip to Helmand. He says Cameron was better at articulating the purpose of the UK's mission in Afghanistan: to reduce the terrorist threat to Britain.Some 298 British troops have now been killed in Afghanistan. We hear from Cheryl Telford, whose son Matthew, a Grenadier Guard, was killed in Afghanistan in November. She's pressing the MoD to pay Matthew's family a full sergeant's pension, which the ministry says it won't because he hadn't been in the post for a year.Jon DennisRichard Norton-TaylorJon BoonePhil MaynardTim Maby

- Remembrance Day marked across UK as Prince William joins Afghan troops
Queen and political leaders attend service at the Cenotaph to remember those killed in armed conflict since first world warPrince William joined British troops in Afghanistan this morning to pay tribute to the servicemen and women killed in the country and in other conflicts.The prince joined the congregation for a service of remembrance at Camp Bastion, Helmand province, where he laid a wreath in memory of the fallen.A wreath laying will be led in Whitehall today by the Queen and other members of the royal family, followed by a dramatically changed political lineup since last year. Ed Milliband, as new leader of the Opposition, will take third, not second place, after the two coalition leaders. Lady Thatcher is expected to attend, but after her recent illness has been advised to watch the ceremony from inside the Foreign Office buildings.After the worst year for British casualties in Afghanistan since the conflict began, the British Legion has reported record sales of more than 46 million poppies.This year's Remembrance Sunday is particularly poignant in Coventry, falling o70 years after the devastating German bombing raid on the city that left the broken ribs of its medieval cathedral rising over acres of shattered and scorched buildings and streets.In London yesterday, Prince Charles joined 150 members of the War Widows Association to lay a wreath at the Cenotaph before the Festival of Remembrance concert at the Royal Albert Hall. The concert was attended by the March for Honour teams of current and former servicemen who have raised £1m by marching 250 miles across Britain over the past fortnight, covering an average of 30 miles a day while carrying 18kg (40lbs) of kit.First-hand witnesses of the first world war are nearly all gone.

- The relatives of fallen soldiers deserve clarity from the army | Editorial
The death of Lance Corporal Pritchard highlights the need for reform in friendly fire investigationsAccidents happen in warfare, tragedies that see civilians killed or soldiers shoot their colleagues in error. They are always regrettable, often shaming and terrible for those responsible. They become scandals, however, when their real circumstances are covered up.The case of Helen Perry and her son, Lance Corporal Michael Pritchard, has elements of both tragedy and scandal. He was killed by a British sniper while manning an observation post in Helmand and it is clear that serious errors were made in communicating a location regularly held by friendly forces. Those are failings that should have been openly examined to ensure such an incident did not occur again. But what is truly scandalous is that his mother had to fight to discover the circumstances of her son's death, after hearing of a sniper's involvement at a reunion for soldiers returning from Afghanistan. Facts known widely within his regiment were kept from his family.Part of the problem is a military system of reporting that, both in its mechanics and its language, is closed and opaque and allows for little cross-examination even by relatives of the deceased. It creates the opportunities for lies and evasions – occasionally intended to prevent further hurt, but most often to avoid blame. It raises another question: if there is such a deficit of honesty about the circumstances of the death of one of our soldiers, what trust can we have in accounts of the deaths of Afghan civilians?Many soldiers have approached Michael's mother to explain why this tragic incident should not have happened. It would be preferable if the military investigated such incidents with equivalent honesty.

A press rlease issued Sunday by the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said insurgents attacked the patrol with rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs) and weapon-mounted grenade launchers.
The combined patrol responded with small-arms and mortar fire, said the ISAF press release.

- Sangin pullout may be seen as retreat | Analysis
Many will ask why troops went there in the first place, and what, if anything, was achievedThe decision to pull British forces out of Sangin in the Helmand valley and replace them with US troops may make military and tactical sense. But it will inevitably be portrayed in some quarters as further evidence of a politically misled, under-strength and ill-equipped British army's inability to get the job done.The withdrawal will also prompt pointed questions, not least from bereaved relatives, about whether the sacrifices made by British forces there were worthwhile. Of the more than 300 British service personnel killed in Afghanistan, more than 100 died in and around the Sangin outpost.The 30,000-strong surge of US forces ordered last year by Barack Obama is expected to be completed by the end of next month. Most of these troops are being sent to Helmand and neighbouring Kandahar where a big push against the Taliban is expected in September, after the holy month of Ramadan.In this context, it is logical, as government officials suggest, to concentrate the British contingent in one area – central Helmand – as fresh American forces arrive. But critics of the campaign are likely to draw comparisons with the British drawback and subsequent withdrawal from southern Iraq in 2007-9 – and to suggest history is now repeating itself.The British military deeply resented suggestions at that time, attributed anonymously to Iraqi and US officials, that the Americans were obliged to take over in Basra because the British had failed. In fact it was the Iraqi army, in an operation known as the Charge of the White Knights, that finally cleared the Iran-backed Shia Mahdi army and other militias out of Basra in March 2008, with American back-up.The operation, ordered by Prime Minister Nouri a なぜ軍が最初の場所に行き、何を、何場合はachievedThe決定を仁のヘルマンド州の谷にイギリス軍をプルし、米軍との軍事と戦術センスをすることがそれらを交換された要求されます多くの
- US troop death tally of 63 makes for deadliest month in Afghanistan
Poppy-farming area of Marjah at hub of British and Afghan army move against TalibanThree US troops died in blasts in Afghanistan, bringing the military death toll for July to at least 63 and surpassing the previous month's record as the deadliest for American forces in the nearly nine-year-old war.The three died in two blasts in southern Afghanistan the day before, a Nato statement said today. No names or nationalities were given, but US officials said the three were Americans.US and Nato commanders had warned that casualties would rise as the international military force ramped up the war against the Taliban, especially in the organisation's southern strongholds in Helmand and Kandahar provinces.President Barack Obama ordered 30,000 US reinforcements to Afghanistan last December in an effort to turn back the resurgent Taliban.British and Afghan troops launched an offensive today in the Sayedebad area of Helmand to try to deny insurgents a base from which to launch attacks in Nad Ali and Marjah, the British military said. Coalition and Afghan troops have sought to solidify control of Marjah after overrunning the poppy-farming community five months ago.In Kabul, a crowd threw stones and set fire to a 4x4 car after a traffic accident today in which two Afghans were killed and two were injured, according to a traffic official, Abdul Saboor. The vehicles are associated with foreigners. Saboor said people from the 4x4 fled the scene.The tally of 63 American deaths in July is based on military reports compiled by Associated Press. June had been the deadliest month for both the US and the overall Nato-led force; last month 104 international service members died, including 60 Americans.The American deaths this month include Petty Officer 2nd Class Justin McNeley, from Kingman, TalibanThree米軍に対するイギリスとアフガニスタン軍の移動のハブMarjahのポピー-農村地域は、アフガニスタンでの爆発では、7月に少なくとも63軍の死者をもたらし、アメリカ軍の最悪の1カ月前の記録を抜いて死亡したほぼ9歳のwar.Theは3つのアフガニスタン南部で2つの爆発日前に、NATOの声明は本日述べた死亡した
- Afghanistan: War without end
There is a clear and pressing need to end the monumental folly of prosecuting a war in AfghanistanThere is a clear and pressing need to end the monumental folly of prosecuting a war in Afghanistan. It is spreading in intensity into the tribal areas of Pakistan and could yet rattle a weak civilian government in Islamabad to bits. To persuade themselves that they are prevailing, the US, Britain and their allies maintain the illusion that they are building the capacity of the Afghan state, when that claim is being routinely undermined by corrupt elections and a president in Hamid Karzai who packs his administration with his relatives. Belief in the nation-building project has collapsed. The bar of success is being lowered.The war has become both a magnet for, and training ground of, no less than two generations of jihadis, each more determined than the last. It is the rallying cause for terrorist acts against civilian targets across the world. Enormous military resources are being devoted to fighting the Taliban on both sides of the border – there are 140,000 Pakistan military in the tribal areas alone. Yet all that has been accomplished is a larger battlefield and a more intense battle. The Pentagon's initial optimism that a surge of US troops would push the Taliban out of Helmand and Kandahar has faded, even before troop levels have peaked. Everyone knows that this conflict can only end in a negotiated solution, but no one yet can imagine it happening.It is against this background that we reveal today that talks have been taking place with the Haqqani network, a group based in North Waziristan and one of the most feared insurgents in Afghanistan. This is separate from the report in the Washington Post that Karzai has been holding secret high-level talks with the Quetta S AfghanistanThere戦争を起訴するの記念碑的な愚行を終了するには、明確で押圧する必要はありませんアフガニスタンでの戦争を起訴するの記念碑的な愚行を終了するには、明確で急務となっている
- How the British presence in Sangin restored trust in government
The Taliban are still present in the region, but they are no longer conducting business as usualSangin should have been the easiest place in all of Afghanistan for the Taliban to hold. It is extremely isolated, and its people are incredibly impoverished, poorly educated and dependent on the narcotics industry. They have historically fiercely opposed any foreign presence (including Afghans from other parts of the country). Instead, thanks largely to the efforts of British troops, it is very much in play – if the Afghan government wants to look after it.In 2006, Britain's effectiveness in Helmand and Sangin was more than debatable. Isolated and sparsely populated Sangin was not a priority when the overall number of Nato forces in Helmand was absurdly low. But the situation there has improved markedly over the last year, and especially in the last few months, and the pressure Isaf forces in Sangin have absorbed has allowed more rapid progress to be made in central Helmand, which is more densely populated. It took the better part of four years to get the process moving, but British forces finally succeeded in getting more of the local population to believe in – and work with – the Afghan government. How?First, the continued presence of British troops in the district illustrated the fallacy of the Taliban's propaganda. Locals realised that UK forces were not out to murder them or take their land, but there to help. Second, the new governor Mohammed Sharif – who is literate and trusted by the population – has served as a legitimate interlocutor. British forces created the space for Sharif to govern effectively. In return, the locals have refused to blindly support the Taliban. Instead, they are engaged in a genuine dialogue with the Afghan government about what public service タリバンはまだ地域に存在しているが、彼らはもはやビジネスを行ってusualSanginは、タリバンの保持するために、すべてのアフガニスタンの最も簡単な場所をされている必要がありますとおりです
- The leaders' debate: Britain and Afghanistan | David Cameron, Gordon Brown and Nick Clegg
The party leaders lay out their policy positions ahead of Thursday's foreign affairs TV debateDavid Cameron: Britain lacks an effective national security policy Whoever wins this general election will immediately be confronted with the ongoing operations in Afghanistan that are vital to our national security. The strategy which has been in place since the end of last year is, I believe, broadly the right one; we must give it the necessary time and support to succeed. That is how we can continue to reverse the Taliban's momentum, build up the Afghan armed forces, and create the conditions for transition to Afghan control. Where we need to go further and faster is in ensuring the right balance of troops across Helmand and in forging a new political settlement. In so doing, we will help to bring greater security to the wider region – and in particular, to Pakistan.During the past decade we have fought two wars, been attacked by terrorists, and faced plots connected to Pakistan and carried out by British nationals attempting to blow up transatlantic planes. But we still do not have a fully functioning national security council; we have not had a comprehensive strategic defence review since 1998; and we have had four defence secretaries in as many years – including one who was part-time even while we were at war. We will not have an effective national security policy if we carry on like this. So a Conservative government would do things differently. We would bring in a new joined-up way of thinking and a new national security approach.• Read more hereGordon Brown: Labour's commitment is non-negotiable We have a clear strategy of Afghanisation, a target of 300,000 trained Afghan army and police by the end of next year, and an agreed process for handing over districts and prov 党指導部は、その政策の位置を前に木曜日の外交テレビのキャメロンdebateDavid：英国は誰今回の総選挙で勝利すぐにアフガニスタンの国家安全保障に不可欠な継続的な操作で直面するだろう効果的な安全保障政策を欠いているレイアウト

- Letters: Humanitarians must talk to the Taliban
Advice to aid agencies to seek a green light from the Taliban to work in zones under their control is hardly groundbreaking counsel (Afghan aid workers advised to seek permission from Taliban, 15 October). In any conflict situation, humanitarian organisations must negotiate access with the men with the guns.In order for humanitarians to reach the people trapped in the midst of conflict, all parties need to understand that they come with no political, religious or economic agenda – they are solely there to provide desperately needed assistance. But to generate that understanding, you need to talk. You need to talk to everybody regardless of the side that they take.In Afghanistan, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has been talking to all sides – the Afghan, US, UK and other European governments, Nato, Isaf and opposition groups – and we are not the only organisation to do so. This is facilitated for MSF by the fact that we do not use any government funding in Afghanistan and rely solely on private donations. Through dialogue, we could access Helmand province and are now supporting one of only two functioning hospitals in the whole of southern Afghanistan.Humanitarians working in the most violent parts of the world always seek to maintain dialogue with the parties to a conflict – state or non-state, military or irregular. To do otherwise and make choices about to whom we talk would mean jeopardising our capacity to provide aid to those most in need.Marc DuBois Executive director, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) UKTalibanAfghanistanAidguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds

Nato troops killed in insurgent attack in southern Afghanistan as Nato-Afghan force kills Taliban leaderSix Nato service personnel were killed today in an insurgent attack in southern Afghanistan, the international alliance said in a statement.Nato did not give further details, in keeping with a policy of waiting for the alliance's individual countries to identify their casualties.Fighting has increased in southern Afghanistan as a surge of US troops poured into Helmand and Kandahar provinces this year in an attempt to push the Taliban out of their traditional strongholds.More than 670 international troops have been killed so far this year, well above the 502 killed in the whole of 2009.Also today, Nato said a joint Nato-Afghan force killed a Taliban leader and captured an important member of another militant group in the east.The Taliban leader was involved in weapons smuggling and attacks in eastern Wardak province, according to a statement. Nato identified him only by his first name, Fedahi.Two men threatened the troops as they entered a compound last night where they had heard Fedahi was staying. They shot and killed both men and one was later identified as Fedahi, the statement said. The coalition statement said no civilians were harmed in the operation.In a separate raid in eastern Khost province last night, Nato and Afghan troops captured a leader of the Haqqani network, a Pakistan-based Taliban faction closely tied to al-Qaida.The troops captured the targeted militant in a compound in Terayzai district, according to a statement.

From the Wikileaks Afghanistan war logs: every roadside bomb and IED attack between 2004 and 2009, with full details • Get the data• Interactive guide to these attacks• Glossary of military terms• Guardian selection of key events: the dataThe improvised explosive device (IED) is the Taliban's weapon of choice, a deadly yet effective counter to the technological superiority of their western adversaries in Afghanistan. It is the biggest single cause of deaths of British troops in Helmand and has proven impossible to completely counter.In their simplest form, IEDs are roadside bombs triggered by command wire, radio signal, mobile phone or by the victim, usually by walking or driving over the devices. Their explosive power comes from shells, diesel or fertiliser. Despite their crudeness, the IEDs are a fearsome enemy. Insurgents employ ruses to outwit electronic counter-measures (ECM) – sophisticated devices used by western soldiers to jam radio signals. Earlier this year all-plastic IEDS, which cannot be detected by traditional mine-sweepers, started to appear on the battlefield. And they are every deadlier, with some able to penetrate the most thick-skinned armoured vehicle. Extracted from the full Wikileaks database, this spreadsheet provides a unique record of attacks since 2004. It only covers roadside bombs and does not include person- or vehicle-borne suicide bombs. We have left out hoaxes (counted as IED incidents in official figures) and only include IED explosions, IED ambushes - where an explosion is combined with an ambush by insurgents - and those that have been found and cleared.This database shows the figures soared in the run-up to the 2009 presidential elections, with more than 100 attacks in three days.The speadsheets are huge - if you're looking to naviga Wikileaksは、アフガニスタン戦争からログ：詳細は各道路脇の爆弾は、2004年と2009年の間IEDの攻撃•これらの攻撃•用語軍事用語のキーイベントの•ガーディアンの選択：dataTheは爆発装置（IEDの即興に•インタラクティブガイドデータを取得する）を選択、致命的なまだ効果的なアフガニスタンでの西部の敵の技術的優位にカウンタのタリバンの武器です
- Afghans guarding Nato convoy killed
Taliban suspected of shooting dead nine workers who were guarding a Nato supply convoy in Gereshk districtGunmen killed nine Afghan workers who were guarding a Nato supply convoy in the south of the country, police said today.The attack in Gereshk district happened last night, according to the deputy police chief for Helmand province, Kamaluddin Khan. Military supply convoys are regularly attacked in Afghanistan, where they are seen as an easier target for insurgents than Nato bases.The shootings come about a week after trucks carrying Nato supplies for troops began travelling again through the Khyber Pass from Pakistan into Afghanistan. Pakistan had closed the Torkham crossing in protest at a Nato helicopter strike that killed two Pakistani border guards.During the 11-day blockade, about 150 trucks were destroyed and some drivers and police were injured in the almost daily attacks in Pakistan. However, Nato said its supplies were not interrupted as it sent them through other routes.Last night an air strike by coalition forces killed four suspected Taliban fighters who were planting a bomb, said Abdul Jabar Pardeli, the police chief in neighbouring Nimroz province. A Taliban commander was among those killed.Violence has risen in southern Afghanistan as Nato and Afghan forces have for months attempted to push insurgents from their strongholds in the Taliban heartland of Kandahar.Checkpoints have been set up around Kandahar city in an attempt to keep insurgents from entering and carrying out attacks.Control of Kandahar is seen as key to reversing Taliban momentum in the war.

- The vicious calculus of insurgency | Erica Gaston
Increasingly targeted by the Taliban, the under-protected Afghan civilians are paying an unacceptable price for Nato's occupationThe UN reported on Monday that in the first six months of 2010, the number of civilian deaths and injuries rose 31%, with the majority (76%) caused by insurgents. Suicide attacks and IEDs against the military killed most of these civilians, who were innocent bystanders.Insurgents are also increasingly turning to assassinations and intentionally targeting the local population, particularly in southern Afghanistan. They may not be as deadly in terms of number of casualties caused but, in many ways, they are equally harmful to humanitarian and strategic interests in Afghanistan.Insurgent assassinations and kidnapping skyrocketed across Afghanistan in the first part of 2010, from just over three per week in the first half of 2009, to an average of 18 civilians assassinated per week in May and June 2010, according to the UN. Southern Afghanistan has been the most affected by these threats, as US and Nato promises of more troops and operations triggered greater attacks and intimidation by insurgent forces. The UN report documents in greater detail how newly proposed operations and counter-insurgency campaigns in Kandahar city and the areas around Marjah, Helmand, rather than leading to greater protection as promised, instead touched off a spike in targeted killings and other attacks. Those who have been targeted include local officials, parliamentary candidates, international military translators, Afghan police, employees of international organisations, pro-government mullahs who speak out against the Taliban, teachers, young girls or women going to school or attempting to work, and more.

- Sangin: the most dangerous place in Afghanistan for Nato soldiers
Of the 300 British soldiers who have died in Afghanistan since 2001, 96 of them have been in SanginOf the 300 British soldiers who have died in Afghanistan since 2001, 96 of them have been in Sangin, the most dangerous place in the country for Nato soldiers.Four years after UK troops deployed there the Taliban continue to aggressively contest control of the Helmand town which has become infamous for the vast number of improvised explosive devices used by insurgents that have been responsible for most British deaths.Firefights with insurgents are also common and at least 16 British troops have died after being shot in the Sangin area.The town is also responsible for more than 10% of daily causalities of the entire Nato mission with Taliban.Sangin has a long history of being troublesome for foreign troops. It was the scene of the first major military engagement in the south of the country during the second Anglo-Afghan war of 1878, where the British fought a cavalry battle against 1,500 enemy fighters.But today it is the drugs trade and tribal politics that have helped to make it a particularly lethal place to operate.The town is close to tracts of well-irrigated land for growing poppies and its proximity to the country's main highway makes it an important smuggling centre for opium and other goods.Analysts and diplomats familiar with the area say the high level of violence is in part due to drug smugglers keen to maintain a level of mayhem that allows their trade to flourish.Weak and corrupt local government – a nationwide problem – also plays its part in fuelling local support for insurgents.That is further complicated by infighting between communities, a problem largely made possible by the decline of the old tribal system that was greatly damaged by factional fighting アフガニスタンで2001年以来、死亡している300英国の兵士、96人のSanginOfで仁、NATOの兵士のための国の中で最も危険な場所にされているアフガニスタンで2001年以来、死亡している300英国の兵士を、96人となっている4年後の英国軍がタリバン悪名高い膨大な数のためになっているヘルマンド町の積極的なコンテストのコントロールにも共通です爆発装置を抵抗勢力で最もイギリスdeaths.Firefightsを担当している武装勢力によって使用される即。継続展開16少なくともイギリス軍は、仁の貼ら町で撮影された後に死亡してもTaliban.Sangin全体NATOの任務の毎日死傷者の10％以上の責任は、外国軍隊のための面倒さの長い歴史があります
- Liam Fox faces an MoD budget battle | Robert Fox
The Trident debate is a distraction. The big challenge for David Cameron's new defence minister is a blown-out budgetThe new defence secretary, Liam Fox, faces one of the most difficult briefs of any in the new government – and like George Osborne at the Treasury, he knows he must act quickly.Unlike Osborne, he has to handle a ministry that is also a military headquarters, and one that has been at war in Afghanistan for nearly nine years. Decisions must be taken soon about where the bulk of Britain's 10,200 strong forces go next, and whether they should shift from Helmand to join the upcoming offensive for Kandahar.He will also have to decide how long Britain keeps this level of forces in the field, given the evident strains on equipment and manpower. As Nato allies quit the battlefield – the Dutch this year, the Canadians next and possibly the Danes with them – the Americans are asking the UK and its forces to do more. This doesn't prevent the whisperers at the Pentagon and on Capitol Hill complaining about the British performance in Helmand, although, to date, the US forces have not faced the same attrition rates of the UK forces in Sangin, Musa Qala and central Helmand these past four years.The Treasury would like the armed forces to be doing less in Afghanistan. The defence budget is overcommitted, and short-term savings will be hard to find. The money for large equipment programmes like the £3.9bn aircraft carriers, the six Type-45 destroyers, now over £4bn, and Eurofighter/Typhoon has largely been spent already.Yet Fox knows he has to deliver defence budget cuts by July, and a full defence review by the first week in November. The most obvious cut is in the army, particularly the largely unfunded vehicle programme known as FRES (Future Rapid Effects System), which トライデント議論が邪魔されます
- It's like locking up Burma's Billy Bragg | Melissa Benn
Aung San Suu Kyi does not stand alone. Let's show our support for Zarganar and the thousands persecuted by a brutal juntaNext Monday afternoon a small demonstration in Trafalgar Square will draw attention to the desperate situation of a talented writer with a wicked sense of humour lying sick and isolated in a cell in the northern part of his country, imprisoned solely for questioning and satirising his country's regime.Not tempted to read on? Briefly imagine the prosecution and long-term imprisonment of the cartoonist Steve Bell or the comedy writer Armando Iannucci for satirical works, or the singer Billy Bragg for inappropriate activism, and you begin to grasp both the significance and madness of this situation.Maung Thura, better known as Zarganar, is a Burmese writer, poet, activist and comedian, most recently arrested for leading a private relief effort to deliver aid to victims of cyclone Nargis, which struck Burma in May 2008. When it became clear that the government was obstructing international aid to the devastated Irrawaddy delta and surrounding areas, Zarganar led efforts to raise and distribute aid from private donors.Despite assurances from the authorities that private donors would be given free access to cyclone-affected areas, he and at least 21 others were later arrested for their participation in the voluntary aid effort. Among his reported crimes was giving interviews to overseas radio stations and other media about his work and the needs of the people. He also ridiculed state media reports about the effect of the cyclone.A 59-year prison sentence was later reduced to 35 years. Two years on, there are desperate worries about his health following a collapse in prison last April. He is said to be suffering from heart problems, jaundice and a stomach u アウンサンスーチーは、スタンドアロンではありません
- Taliban bombings harm civilians in Afghanistan
Bomb attacks launched by the Taliban militants in Afghanistan often claim the lives of non-combatants instead of troopers, as the latest wave of strikes left three civilians dead and 25 others injured in the Taliban hotbed Helmand province on Friday.
An explosive device, according to the police, planted on a motorbike and ripped through a crowd of people who were watching dog fighting outside provincial capital Lashkar Gah turned the weekly holiday to a mourning day.

- Ana Timberlake obituary
Our mother, Ana Timberlake, who has died aged 66 of the lung disease idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, was one of those rare women who proved that you can have it all. A successful businesswoman and loving mother of three, Ana was the founder of Timberlake Consultants Limited (TCL), a statistical consultancy firm, with particular applications in medical research and econometric modelling.Ana was born in Portugal, the daughter of a civil engineer. Her father, Armando da Palma Carlos, was at that time the resident engineer on the Pego do Altar dam construction site, Alentejo, where Ana spent her early childhood. Her family were no strangers to successful women. Her aunt, Elina Guimarães (whose husband, Adelino da Palma Carlos, was appointed prime minister following the 1974 revolution) was head of the National Council of Portuguese women and is considered to have been the first feminist in Portugal.Ana took her first degree, in mathematics, at Lisbon University, before coming to Britain in 1969 to do a master's degree in statistics and operational research at Southampton University. She then took up employment at PTRC (Planning and Transport Research and Computation), a small research unit in London.An early assignment at PTRC was to re-analyse the results of Robert Borkenstein's 1964 Grand Rapids study, upon which the British breathalyser test had been based in the mid-1960s. The original data had not been statistically adjusted and earlier analysis had suggested that driving improved with the intake of a small amount of alcohol. However, after Ana had standardised the data (for weather, vehicle age, driving experience, and so on), it became clear (much to the chagrin of the brewers) that alcohol intake did indeed make driving capability progressively worse.At PTRC, Ana com 特発性肺線維症66肺疾患の高齢者が死亡した私たちの母親、アナティンバーレイク、1人は、あなたがすべてあることを証明これらの貴重な女性だった
