Obama's War: Thousands of Marines Battle in Helmand in Major U.S. Offensive
In Afghanistan, a powerful truck bomb killed at least 25 people today, including up to 16 schoolchildren, in a province just south of Kabul. The latest bloodshed coincided with a major American military offensive in Helmand province in the south. US forces last week launched whats being described as the largest Marine offensive since the Vietnam War. Some 4,000 Marines and hundreds of Afghan troops are targeting areas in the Helmand River Valley to wrest it from Taliban control. We go to Kabul to speak with Wall Street Journal journalist, Anand Gopal.

The most important footage is @@2:21. NATO and US forces must win the hearts and minds of Afghani's if this war is to be successful. I believe American soldiers that talk with the locals creates goodwill. Most Americans want only the best for Afghanistan and interactions with the civilian population shows this. This is why airstrikes and unmanned drones can be counter-productive as they cause too many civilian casualties.
