“The insurgents are forcing NATO to respond to their agenda,” a security official in Kabul said. “People are pretty freaked out, and rightfully so.”Well, actually... the "Taliban agenda" in these villages has so far pretty much consisted of dozens of insurgents being shredded by vastly superior Canadian and Afghani firepower... so I think we can guess who's doing most of the "freaking out."
But hey... never let the facts get in the way of a good story.
