br> -- Elaine Kyle /p> p> NO PAPER TIGERS br> Re: Michael Fumento's Afghanistan: The Winnable War : /p> p>Michael Fumento, in his report "Afghanistan: The Winnable War" (June 8), mentions six NATO members willing to conduct combat operations in the country: the U.S., U.K, Canada, the Netherlands, Romania and Denmark. In fact Polish and Danish troops also have a combat mission. Still far too little from most members of the Alliance; but let's give credit where it's due. Australia, not a NATO member, also has significant numbers of fighting special forces in Afghanistan and has recently announced it will be doubling its overall troop strength to around 1,000. br> -- Mark Collins br> Ottawa, Ontario /p>

Michael Fumemto is one of the literal handful of people that, when they say it about the war against the Islamic Jihad, I believe it. These few have proven time and time again that they speak only with a straight tongue. If I had the power, I would empanel a committee of these few, and the two Michaels at the head (Fumento and Yon), and give them free reign to do what they believe necessary to conduct our response to the worldwide Islamic Jihad against Christianity and Judaism. My only rule would be that they do not change their current methods of operation as far as collecting their data on which to form their opinions.
