Read this harrowing story from the NY Times reporter who was held hostage in Afghanistan recently. It's an incredible first person account of what it's like in that war-torn country right now:

On Saturday, Sept. 5, I woke up in Kunduz to begin the second day of reporting.

We did what we had not dared do at such a late hour on Friday. We drove south of Kunduz along the main Kabul highway until we reached the turnoff.

I checked with Sultan and the driver to see if they felt safe going there, and they said it seemed all right. We edged along a narrow country lane and came out on the riverbank with the tankers a few hundred yards ahead.

Continue on to find out what happened...

And we expect to clean up everything over there? What a mess.
