Following up on the Afghanistan runner, Mehboba Ahdyar, who has still not surfaced after disappearing a second time in July.

| She is Mehboba Ahdyar, and until middle of last month she was training to compete in the 1,500 and 3,000 meters events in the Beijing Olympics, which begin on Friday. She'd gone to Italy for extra conditioning. Around July 4, she ran away from her training camp and Afghanistan's four-member Olympic delegation, now down to three. Sayed Mahmoud Zia Dashti, deputy chairman of the Afghan Olympic body, claimed that Ahdyar had injured her leg "and that she has will not participate in the Beijing Olympics and that her family in Italy is taking care of her." But the Associated Press also reported that "There had been fears that Ahdyar's disappearance could be linked to death threats from Muslim extremists in Afghanistan opposed to women running in the Olympics. Afghanistan was banned from the 2000 Sydney Olympics because the Taliban regime in power at the time barred women from taking part in the games." Der Spiegel, the German newsweekly, has since reported that Ahdyar "told her parents she is too scared of reprisals and plans to seek asylum in Europe." The German coach of the Afghan women's soccer team, Klaus Stärk, told the publication that "he had to train his players on a small pitch at a US army base in Kabul because it would be too dangerous for them to play anywhere else. He even brought the female players to his native Stuttgart to give them the chance to play on regulation-sized fields." |

This is where it all started. America and a world coalition entered to get Bin Laden and the taliban. Years later the Taliban fight strong and Bin Laden can't be found. It makes movies like "Eagle Eye" look ridiculous. Maybe we will all end up like the Russians did taking our tail between our legs and leaving.

That is the main thing about movies. They are not always right. They are just for entertainment. I think that Bin Laden will be found if he is not dead already. We know that most of them are hiding out in the mountains of northern Pakistan. The fact that we can not go in there and get him is causing a lot of grief. I think as time goes on we will get fewer attacks as they lose more and more fighters.
