The Coalition Continues To Attack The Taliban
The US led coalition has used drones to whittle away at the Taliban for quite a while
and I am beginning to wonder just how long the Taliban and al-Qaeda can last against the hail of strikes which has taken out many of their top leaders. The Obama administration has used drones increasingly in this campaign with much success.
They have conducted this campaign to decapitate the top terror leaders and it has been very successful. I have wondered how the terror groups have managed to remain in existence. I have noticed that they have not been able to launch many attacks against the US either overseas or abroad. This is beneficial to the citizens of the United States whether they realize it or not. The fact that the war is being fought in the very heartland of the terror organizations is good enough to keep them confused, disoriented, and unable to strike back. It has served to keep terror attacks away from American soil.
The United States has developed specialized technology in this war which has served to search out and eliminate terrorists who remain in hiding so that they wont be found. They have developed a complex intelligence network which has different and intricate levels which work in a coordinated effort to eliminate terrosists.
Special operations troops are one level of the network. They work in conjunction with drones, regular troops, and intelligence agencies to find and fix terrorists. Intelligence is gathered from human sources to include indigenous people, satellites, drones, aircraft, and military observers. When all of these layers of intelligence gathering systems are used they are able to get detailed information about the enemy that we are fighting.
The US also uses signal intelligence gathered from radio, telephone, TV and all other types of electronic transmissions. We dont know the full scope of US intelligence gathering capabilities but they have been highly successful in keeping the terror organizations at bay.
One of the latest news articles about the decapitation of terror organizations tells of the execution of another senior Haqqani member near the border with Afghanistan: International forces in Afghanistan say a coalition airstrike has killed a senior Haqqani network leader near the Pakistani border. NATO says the militant was key in facilitating extremist violence in the country.
Dilawar - who went by one name - was said to be a key leader of the al-Qaida-linked Haqqani network, which has staged deadly attacks on U.S.-led coalition forces in Afghanistan. NATO says a precision airstrike Tuesday killed Dilawar and two of his associates in the eastern Afghan province of Khost.
Lieutenant Jimmie Cummings, a spokesman for the International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan, said, The death of Dilawar marks another significant milestone in the disruption of the Haqqani network in Afghanistan.
Dilawar's death comes exactly one week after the capture of Haji Mali Khan, a senior Haqqani leader. The coalition says Dilawar was a principal subordinate to Khan and was instrumental in planning attacks, including an ambush on Afghan troops in eastern Paktiya province last month.
Dilawar operated along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border, between the Khost and Paktiya provinces, where he actively coordinated numerous attacks against Afghan forces and facilitated the movement of weapons," said Cummings. "Dilawar also facilitated the movement of foreign fighters, and was associated with both al-Qaida and the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan."
The United States and Afghanistan blame the Haqqani network for numerous attacks, including a nearly day-long assault on the U.S. Embassy in Kabul last month. The militant group enjoys a safe haven in Pakistan, and senior U.S. and Afghan leaders allege it receives significant tactical and material support from the Pakistani military spy agency, the ISI. Pakistan rejects the charge.
Other terrorists who have been eliminated by the US include Osama bin Laden, Anwar al-Awlaki, and many others. I feel that it will be a matter of only a few months before the terror network completely folds.
