Major victory - Afghans saved from famine

The war on terrorism is being fought on several fronts, but the most important victory to date may be the humanitarian relief efforts that have sent tons of food to the people of Afghanistan. The World Food Program estimates 6 million Afghanis have been saved from starvation.

This huge effort to stave off mass famine has come as a result of military victories in the terrorist-harboring nation. Because of military action that changed who controls vast areas of Afghanistan, shipments of food have been able to reach hungry people. Indeed, food that had been stolen by bandits has been recovered.

While terrorism still exists and Osama bin Laden remains at large, it is no small feat to save millions from certain death by starvation.
