    U.S. commandos carried out raids in southern Afghanistan early Saturday morning in a new phase of the campaign to wipe out the al-Qaida terrorist network and the Taliban regime that shelters it. NBC’s Jim Miklaszewski reported that more than 100 Army Rangers attacked Taliban targets in southern Afghanistan after being ferried in by helicopters based on the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk.

    Wonder how many we lost? Rumsfield:

    He gave a sobering assessment of the Taliban troops: “The people on the ground there are very tough. They have been fighting each other and others for a long time, they’re survivors. They know the terrain.”
