KABUL, Afghanistan - One of America's closest allies says the war on
terrorism fails to <br>
address its root causes.<br>
<br>
Experts agreed with Afghan President Hamid Karzai, saying Friday the
major military<br>
offensive against the Taliban will not fix larger crises, a lack of
reconstruction and jobs,<br>
a booming drug trade, and a weak government.<br>
