To the Editor:
On page one, we learn that the Haqqani network has been stymied. On page six, those who read the rest of the article learn that this same group has instead been staging successful assaults against remote American outposts. Perhaps Secretary Gates is satisfied that the carnage is now beyond the range of the news cameras. Will we declare "victory" just because our sons and brothers are now dying in more obscurity?
