The Decline and Fall of the American Empire
By Alfred W. McCoy
December 11, 2010 "The Nation" - - A soft landing for America 40 years from

superpower could come far more quickly than anyone imagines. If Washington
is dreaming of 2040 or 2050 as the end of the American Century, a more

眾21日在基地外举行抗议，有人向空中放枪，有人向基地大门投掷石块和点燃汽车轮胎
。
可兰经是穆斯林的圣经。儘管美军和北约驻阿最高指挥官艾伦说，焚烧事件不是有意的
，但阿富汗抗议民眾仍极為不满，高喊「去死吧，外国佬」。
焚烧可兰经事件进一步激化了阿富汗日益升高的反外国人情绪。歷经十年的战争后，阿
富汗人认為，外国军队根本不尊重伊斯兰教和他们的文化。
约100名示威者21日一早听说焚烧可兰经后，开始聚集在美军巴格兰基地外，随后人群
逐渐增多。
抗议者哈金说，美军不能给阿富汗带来和平，应滚回去，「他们应撤出阿富汗，而不是
蔑视我们的宗教和信仰。他们必须撤走，如果下一次他们再敢蔑视我们的宗教，我们将
用最后的一滴血，誓死捍卫神圣的可兰经、宗教和信仰。」
省议会首领扎赫德说，美军把他请到基地的焚烧地点，他找出包括可兰经在内的60多本

这是自2006年14名英军士兵在阿富汗阵亡以来，在单个事件中死亡人数最多的一次。
据悉，这6名士兵当时正乘坐装甲车巡逻，巡逻车触发路边炸弹引起巨大爆炸，6名士兵
当场死亡。英国国防部在一份声明中称，炸弹可能是阿富汗反政府武装埋下的，也可能
是前苏联占领时期遗留下来的。
英国首相卡梅伦7日在议会接受例行质询时表示，这对英国来说是“极为悲伤的一天”
。他说，每一次伤亡都提醒人们，为了英国的安全，英军士兵所付出的生命代价。
自2001年阿富汗战争爆发以来，英军阵亡总 数已达404人。目前英国在阿富汗尚有9500
名驻军，英国政府已决定将在2014年底之前全部撤军。卡梅伦称，必须告知塔利班一个
明确信息，那就是无论 英军还是阿富汗政府军在那里，塔利班都绝不可能赢得战争的
胜利。（中新社伦敦3月7日电 魏群） |

阿富汗喀布尔——美国和阿富汗官员上周日称，就在美阿两军的联合行动据悉恢复正常
两天后，五人（两名美国人和三名阿富汗人）在双方士兵的激战中死亡。
阿富汗官员称，上周六发生的交火是一场误会，美军显然误击了阿富汗国民军(Afghan
