<P>The Taliban have largely shied away from large-scale attacks on foreign 
forces since suffering severe casualties in assaults on NATO bases in the south 
in 2006. Instead the militants have scaled up hit-and-run attacks and suicide 
and roadside bombs.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.reuters.com/article/topNews/idUSSP8694520080714?feedType=RSS&feedName=topNews">
