    Hi Joe, how do you define 'credible source'? US military? US media?
    Foreign media? Aid agencies? Who do you believe?

    US media have closed themselves down, the allied military have closed off
    Afghanistan, and basically none of us outside of the situation on the ground
    know jack about what's really going on. Real factual information about
    what's going on there is in short supply.

    I will gladly, however, bet you anything you like that the death toll in
    Afghanistan is already greater than in New York.

            <You need to reference your opinion with facts. as of now, the
    death toll from the WTC atrocity is 2939; no credible source dares claim
    that an equal or greater number of Afghan noncombatants have died in the US
    reponse against the Taliban and Al Quaeda there.>
