Post #15,116 by bluke 10/25/01 11:12:35 AM Reply	Who is going to deal with these refugees? There are already over 100,000 refugees with nothing but the clothing on their backs as a consequence of the air attacks. Is the US going to feed all these people? Provide them shelter? The civilian casualty count looks low, but when you take into account the refugees it really is not.

Taleban is shortly replaced, bin-L declared 'permanently missing in action' (whether actually assassinated or not - as in Chinese press). So they could go home / with food parcels, emptying out overburdened Pakistan suburbs as well - easing pressure on That regime. Etc. Could happen (?) A.
