The war will continue for as long
as it takes: General Franks

Commander of the US campaign in Afghanistan General Tommy Franks has said his forces will do whatever it takes to destroy Osama bin Laden's terrorist network.

Speaking at a news conference in Uzbekistan, Franks said: "The overall operation around the globe is to disconnect (and) to destroy terrorist networks with global reach."

He denied that Operation Enduring Freedom has reached a stalemate and said the campaign against terrorism will continue till it achieves its target.

Franks said he had had a "full, free, frank discussion" with Uzbek President Islam Karimov and the Uzbek defence and foreign ministers.
