What you need to do is take away the one thing they absolutely have to have and that’s access and support of the people,” he said.. BEIJING, July 1 /PRNewswire-Asia-FirstCall/ — ChinaEdu Corporation(Nasdaq: CEDU) (“ChinaEdu” or the “Company”), an educational services providerin China, today announced that it filed its Form 20-F annual report for theyear ended December 31, 2008, which includes the Company’s audited financialstatements, with the U.S. His men are believed to have helped capture Saddam Hussein and kill both of Saddam’s sons. McChrystal has said killing or capturing high value-targets would still be part of the strategy in Afghanistan but he has also said he understands it has its limits “You don’t really need to chase and kill the Taliban. WHAT ABOUT CIVILIAN CASUALTIES? McChrystal has repeatedly pledged to take steps to limit civilian casualties, especially from air strikes, which have infuriated Afghans and turned them against foreign forces. He is expected to issue orders soon requiring troops to disengage from combat when possible to reduce civilian deaths.

He also says air strikes should only be called in if soldiers on the ground are under imminent threat and at risk of being over-run The issue was brought into sharp focus in May when U.S. B1 bombers killed dozens of civilians in western Afghanistan. WHAT ARE THE MAIN TARGETS? McChrystal used to command JSOC, the most elite and secretive branch of the U.S. military’s special forces tasked with hunting down “high-value targets” in Iraq and Afghanistan. If McChrystal follows that pattern, the Marines will push out of large base camps to establish smaller forward operating bases, or FOBs, to live and fight among ordinary Afghans. The same strategy might also see the use of community-based guard forces along the lines of tribal councils that sprang up among Sunni Muslim communities in western Iraq at roughly the same time as the surge, a major turning point in the war there. His predecessor General David McKiernan was removed, most experts believe, because Washington was losing patience with conventional tactics that failed to quell mounting violence.

McChrystal has said most forces in Afghanistan were designed for conventional “high-intensity” combat using every asset available. One of his priorities now will be to draw insurgents away from ordinary Afghans, saying foreign forces need “to convince people, not kill them”. That would make the new Afghan strategy similar to that Patraeus used in Iraq under the so-called surge from early 2007. COUNTER-INSURGENCY OR CONVENTIONAL WARFARE? Since taking over last month, McChrystal has told commanders in Afghanistan he wants a “cultural shift” away from conventional warfare towards counter-insurgency operations aimed at winning the support of Afghans. WHAT IS THE COMMAND STRUCTURE? McChrystal has a second-in-command in a newly created post. Lieutenant General David Rodriguez is in charge of the day-to-day running of foreign forces in Afghanistan.
