Arghandab is Clear of Taliban

"
US officials are saying the stories regarding a large presence of Taliban just northwest of Kandahar are unfounded:

BAGRAM AIR FIELD, Afghanistan (June 17, 2008) – Afghan National Police and Coalition forces completed a patrol in the Arghandab District of Kandahar province today and found no evidence that militants control the area.

While in the area, Coalition forces moved freely and met no resistance. Recent reports of militant control in the area appear to be unfounded.

The threat of militant activity still exists throughout the province, but the patrol found no indication that militants have overwhelming strength in the Arghandab area."
