Closure of Kyrgyz base deals a blow to US - 19 Feb 09

The parliament in Kyrgyzstan has voted to close an air base key to US efforts in Afghanistan, as Washington urges Nato to send more troops to the war-torn country.

The closure of the Manas US airbase will make it increasingly difficult for soldiers and supplies to reach Afghanistan.

The base was expected to be used heavily as a build-up of US reinforcements into Afghanistan develops.

@koolkoon : If you are gonna try to pass yourself off as black try using updated inner city ebonics (west coast or east coast). Secondly, don't call yourself koolkoonklown=KKK. Now that you are busted address the topic at hand or better yet sit there and try to figure out what is wrong. Class is over, time for a refill.
