Asia Times: Afghanistan: The war gathers momentum

"KARACHI - A new round of carpet bombing and reinforcements of United States troops is likely for Afghanistan as the writ of the administration of President Hamid Karzai is under threat from a fierce guerrilla war that is intensifying in the mountainous terrain of the cities and towns located in the east of the country near the Pakistani border.

Given the pace of guerrilla activities, as the snow starts to melt towards the end of March, the capital Kabul can expect to come under rocket and missile attacks."
