Afghanistan is the forgotten war. Iraq gets all the press because, frankly, the jihadis are far more skilled at working the MSM. The MSM loves the Iraq story because it has a chance to change the midterm elections and it usually has nice videos of things blowing up or burning. Afghanistan, not so much.

The story points to a dramatic culling of Taliban forces in response to an attack on Canadian troops there. The Talib have also aligned themselves with the drug gangs which makes them doubly unpopular as the drug lords tend to be ruthless and extremely violent.
