Responsibility of the Provincial Government Center, nicknamed the “Blue Dome,” where the provincial council operates, was given to Diyala, May 1, in a peaceful transi- tion. On May 5, Diyala Governor Ra’ad Hameed Juwad and Deputy Governor Auwf Rahumi Majeed moved their offices out of the Blue Dome and into the Binayat Al-Muhafadha Al-Qadima building. The Binayat building had long been home to the Governor’s office, but was almost completely destroyed during Operation Iraqi Freedom. In the courtyard of the building, where a formal ceremony was held, Governor Ra’ad kissed and hoisted the Iraqi flag before cutting the blue Governor Ra'ad Rasheed Hameed of the Diyala Province kisses the flag of Iraq before ribbon attached to the door that led hoisting up the flag pole at the Civil Military Operations Center Compound May 5, in into his new office building. downtown Baquba Iraq.

  • Defeating the Taliban in Sangin
    JULY 2011 The Third Way of COIN: Defeating the Taliban in Sangin By Dr. Mark Moyar | Copyright© 2011 Orbis Operations, LLC The Third Way of COIN: Defeating the Taliban in Sangin 2011 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The history of counterinsurgency in Sangin district offers a wealth of insights into the nature of the war in Afghanistan and the path that coalition forces should now follow. From 2006 to 2011, coalition forces took three distinct approaches to counterinsurgency in Sangin. The first two—the enemy-centric approach and the population-centric approach—failed to suppress the insurgents. The enemy-centric approach failed because it did not provide the population with adequate governance or deprive the insurgents of access to the population. The population- centric approach failed because the enemy’s persistent military strength impeded governance and discouraged popular support for the government. Coalition forces adhered to the enemy- centric and population-centric approaches for four and a half years, from the beginning of 2006 to the summer of 2010, during which time they sustained one hundred fatalities and many times that number in wounded. In the fall of 2010, the 3rd Battalion of the 5th U.S. Marine Regiment arrived in Sangin and began a counterinsurgency campaign that combined elements of the enemy-centric and population- centric approaches, emblematic of a shift in many Afghan districts that accompanied the arrival of General David Petraeus as ISAF commander. The Marines conducted enemy-centric security operations in unpopulated areas, to disrupt and destroy enemy forces, and population-centric security operations in populous areas, to obstruct the insurgent shadow government and allow the government to supplant it.

  • US and Coalition Military Operations in Afghanistan: Issues for Congress
    Order Code RL33503 U.S. and Coalition Military Operations in Afghanistan: Issues for Congress Updated December 11, 2006 Andrew Feickert Specialist in National Defense Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division U.S. and Coalition Military Operations in Afghanistan: Issues for Congress Summary The U.S. military has been involved in Afghanistan since the fall of 2001 when Operation Enduring Freedom toppled the Taliban regime and attacked the Al Qaeda terrorist network hosted by the Taliban. A significant U.S. military presence in the country could continue for many years as U.S., North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), Coalition, and Afghan National Army (ANA) forces attempt to stabilize the country by defeating the insurgency, facilitating reconstruction, and combating Afghanistan’s illegal drug trade. Despite NATO’s assumption of command of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), the United States will remain the largest troop contributing nation and will continue Operation Enduring Freedom, intended to locate and destroy insurgents and terrorists operating in Afghanistan. Recent NATO combat operations have resulted in a request for an additional 2,000 to 2,500 NATO troops as well as a call for NATO nations to rescind national caveats on how their forces may be employed in Afghanistan. Insurgent activity continues to evolve, with some of the tactics and techniques being used by Afghan insurgents reportedly similar to those employed in Iraq. Reports suggest that instead of building a 70,000 soldier Afghan National Army as agreed to in the 2002 Bonn Conference, the Administration intends to support a 50,000 soldier force, while some Afghan officials suggest that a 150,000 man Afghan National Army will be needed to insure both internal and external security.
