| Prime Minister-designate Hamid Karzai warned the United States to never again "walk away from Afghanistan," and he promised that his country would be "a good friend, a trusted friend and an ally" in the U.S.-led fight against terrorism. In an interview two days after arriving in Kandahar, Karzai said he completely backed U.S. efforts to capture or kill members of Osama bin Laden's terrorist network. "We must finish them all," he said, "completely burn them out." |
