Thousands of foreign fighters from Chechnya to Albania have poured into Afghanistan to bolster the Taliban insurgency
Media Release
Oct. 10, 2009

The showdown is imminent. Al-Queda recruits or Islamic solidarity, no one knows where these thousands of militia men came from to fight the Western forces of NATO led by America.

The remarks come as the U.S. debates whether to substantially increase its forces in Afghanistan or to conduct a more limited campaign focused on targeting al-Qaida figures — most of whom are believed to be in neighboring Pakistan.

The minister's comments hit on a key worry of the United States — that not sending enough troops to Afghanistan will open the door back up to al-Qaida. They also suggest that the Afghan government is nervous about the U.S. commitment amid talk of changing the strategy and a surge in violence in recent months.

An American and two Polish troops were killed by bombs in the latest violence reported by NATO forces.
