Zionist US steps up efforts to rescue 'war on terror' in Afghanistan

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will visit Britain next week for high-stakes talks on Afghanistan amid US fears its NATO allies could abandon a strategic cornerstone of its "war on terror."

The trip was announced after Canada warned it could withdraw its 2,500 troops there if NATO fails to send reinforcements to the battle-ravaged south, a risk that appeared higher with Germany's refusal to deploy its forces there.

Rice will leave Washington Tuesday for talks the next day with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown and Foreign Secretary David Miliband about Afghanistan as well as Iraq and Iran, her spokesman Sean McCormack told reporters.

McCormack said Afghanistan will figure high on the agenda as he conceded there is "a risk the clock could be turned back on the gains" made since the Taliban and Al-Qaeda were toppled after the September 11, 2001 attacks.
